So, has anyone else noticed that the background image for the Winter 2011 Update page has a bunch of uniquely colored Gallente ships in it? If you can, right click on the page and select 'view background image'.

Does this mean we can expect the ability to paint ships soon? Is CCP expanding its micro-transactions portfolio?

What you're saying is I can buy them for ISK?

That's good news, but source?

To answer the question directly:

No, there will be no ships allowing you to paint stuff.

Not this expansion at least

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

Yes, but Solstice Project was making fun of my admittedly rather poor word choice; I said it as though there could be a ship that paints things, rather than the ability for capsuleers to paint/decorate their own stuff. Unless you're playing along with him and really do get his joke.

Anyway, is there really no significance at all to the image? I thought there would be...

The V3 project will apparently allow custom skins and logos down the road. I think they meniton it in this vid: Future Stuff

I love how some people say things with no source whatsoever. Saying that players won't be able to customize their ships, completely disregarding that CCP is modifying ships so that you can put logos on the ship.

The world is a community of idiots doing a series of things until it explodes and we all die.

CCP have said Aurum for custom ship decals will be coming.... but not this winter expansion...... it will likely happen some time after summer 2012 expansion when all the ships have been V3'd completely

Would it be wrong to mention there's been a hidden paint shop station service when T3's came out just inaccessible on SiSi/TQ?

I doubt there'll ever be fully custom ship skins for three reasons.
1: TTP
2: Lag problems, as you have to download peoples skins
3: Copyright issues.


On the other hand, being able to pick from a bunch of textures and then from a few colours, that's entirely possible. So I'll pick Camo pattern 14, with pink and black. Or a dazzle pattern with red yellow and blue. Avoids all three.

Woo! CSM XI!

If you watch this vid ccp released a member of the art team(I think the French dude) mentioned that they are looking at it, not sure if its part 1 or part 2.

He mentions corp logos and stuff. I dont think it will be in next patch.
