I don't believe anything is ugly when it can Damp something so far down it's lock range is only long enough to scratch the pilots nose. Twisted

There is a reason it has a cloaking device. I'm not so sure what the kickstand is for.

the old imicus looks like a dogs chewing toy.

I have no words for the new imicus.

Gallente ships. They all look like electric shavers.

I recently had to decide what faction I was going to play, and honestly the ship looks really did weight in on that choice. I know you can train whatever ships you want to fly, but I still feel like your "home team" says something about you. I think every race had ships I didn't like, and each one had one or two really great designs. In the end, I went with Gallente because they had both good variety and a strong theme. I felt like Amarr had such a strong theme all the ships looked the same, and the Minmatar had good variety, but not in a good way. The Caldari were a close second!

New atron looks good. Navitas I'm not sure about, it lacks character.

What minmatar ships lack in appearance they make up for it in other ways. Gotta trust in the rust...

Wow. The old version of the Helios was beautiful.

I know that Gallente ships are supposed to look 'organic', but being descended from the French, I thought most of their ships would possess some elegance and design as well. Some ships look like cancerous blobs with random, mutated outgrowths. The Helios is a good example.

The imicus/helios hull looks like a lima bean with a kickstand. I love most Gallente ships, but not that one.

I hope the redesigned dominix hull comes out soon. It would be a worthy Improvement.

The problem with slavery is that only half of the manacles are visible. The Holder, supposed master, is equally bound by the gilded chains of privilege and wealth.

Greetings, CreoDron representative here,

Our exploration craft are designed, engineered and manufactured to be both beautiful and sturdy. Imicus and Helios feature a precision engineered unibody enclosure constructed from machining a custom grade of 6000 series alloyed tritanium, which is tempered for extra strength. They also feature superalloy I-beam inserts to reinforce high stress locations and use the strongest glass in the spacecraft industry. We chose these high-quality materials and construction very carefully for their strength and durability. We also perform rigorous tests throughout the entire development cycle including 3-point bending, pressure point cycling, dock, torsion, and user studies. Imicus and Helios meet or exceed all of our high quality standards to endure everyday, real life use.

With normal use a bend in an Imicus or Helios is extremely rare and through our entire history of sales, a total of nine customers have contacted CreoDron with a bent Imicus or Helios. A bent Imicus or Helios is likely the result of the consumer not flying it correctly, or trying to fit it into docking ports that are too tight. As with any CreoDron product, if you have questions please contact CreoDron.

NO CCP JUST STOP!!! You just made the imicus look worse, it looks fine as is if you ACTUALLY look at it. If you could stop symmetricallizing everything as well? Chop the one front wing off the new navitas to resemble the old one and I would be happy. The new atron looks great, kind of like the newbie ship.

I also wouldn't mind if the dominix was completely redesigned to look like a sideways lumpy potatoe. Could be pretty cool.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

It just has a wide stance.
