well, it has small wings in the front. there was even a patch because they were not symmetrical (which had to be rectified)

Would love to see most of the cruisers remodeled, especially the Caldari ones. I'd not want to see them changed completely, just an updated refined version. Think the maller/apocalypse revamps.

To be honest none of them. Every ship that has been remodeled seems to look worse in my opinion.

example:
Tempest now looks like a brown caldari ship with its clean lines and lack of scaffolding
Scorpion looked awesome when it was asymetrical.

Model NEW ships for us. By ballsing up the old ones you are trashing a little bit of eves history.

I don't really care about subcaps because you have to zoom really close which I don't do often. BUT Capitals... Whoever designed the Caldari ones was drunken. The Chimera looks cool but the Phoenix, Wyvern and the Leviathan are big piece of scrap metal. Ugly. They really need a redesign in my opinion.

I really liked the Tristan drawings from a couple fanfests back.

The Dominix, the Imicus, the Typhoon, the Tempest for starters.

This is a tough decision- because all of the ships in EVE have been designed to have their own look and feel- apart from obvious racial definition.

That said, however, I am not really a fan of the asymmetrical looking ships (Aeon looks like it ran into a table saw, for example) and the fact that most of the well known drone ships (*cough* Dominix *cough*) don't even have visible drone or launch bays is quite the annoyance for immersive feeling.

We spend a lot of time in game looking at ships- apart from laser lights, projectiles, engine exhaust, etc. so I think a really good look at all the ships since changes have been made from their original designs should be considered.

I'll leave out the cockpit interface thing because it's already been discussed before, however I'd like most if not all flyable player ships to have an actual visible viewport somewhere (most Caldari ships seem to have them, and it's spotted in others) but it's very tertiary to what I'd like to see in the overall models.

*deposits 2 isk*

TL;DR If you didn't read the entire post perhaps you're probably ADHD. (seek help)

Pretty sure the Tempest just got a remake relatively recently.

I know, it did. What I'm saying is, go back and revisit it again..

When they 'balanced' the wings, they ruined the only bit of character the Domi had, and I fly one most of my game time.

This is not a signature.

What's wrong with the Typhoon?
I'll grant you that the skin is a bit washed but the model is just perfect, the Typhoon Fleet Issue is one of the best looking ships, if not the best looking ship in the game.

The Vargur requires launcher hardpoints, following tempest tradition.

None. Get back to designing non-spaceship stuff. But actually accomplish something.

Aeon = Somebody really needs to ask wtf they did with the other half. Lol

Helios = put it back to the god damm Maulus hull cos it looks sheet!! you could actually use the out dated concord police captain frigate instead nom nom Twisted

Moa = looks like a mini me jita stn on its head Ugh

Hyperion = could use the central engine mount to rotate. Shocked

Rattler = needs its own unique design (scorpion hull doesnt quite suit the name of the ship) Big smile

Revenant = looks like what my cat did this morning. Oops

erebus = flies backwards What?

Phoon = give it some wings BlinkCool

Quoting "you will die" in EvE is fail Chars dont die in EvE. Unless you have a heart attack eek.

To each his own, I suppose, but the Typhoon kinda looks like a big flying turd with sticks. This concept I found is a much, much better look:

That is a cool Typhoon.
