any news on the domi?

not at the moment

Since he asked you three questions and you responded in a such a manner that one has to assume that the answer is to all three, I wanted to really vent my frustration at the last question. This is what really bugs me about a lot of the changes you make to eve including graphics, you guys are so dang inconsistent. Seriously why you guys don't evaluate everything from a wholesale perspective and plan to do changes that make since all at once or least not leave things hanging like you always do.

The AFs, in particular the harpy and hawk, are a perfect example of this. Clearly ONE of those should be based off the kestrel hull... and yet the foolishness of the merlin base persists. Why on earth you guys didn't do a model change for those two ships when you did the command ships is beyond me. It drives my OCD nuts. Don't change stuff if you aren't going to be thorough and do a good job gosh darn it.

It would be really nice if the blackbird didn't fall victim to the current trend of the art team redesigning Caldari ships to no longer look 'Caldari', stripping them of their character. Like the moa, yes, it needed an upgrade, touch ups, tune ups, but it went from something unique and similar to the caldari style, to 'generic symmetrical fighter'. Please don't let them ruin the blackbird the same way.

serioulsy, texturing is almost done, animations are done only setting it up for the game is left regards to content generation

so the release of the ship will be in december with the rhea release as it looks right now.

I will literally love you forever despite not even knowing what you look like if you could post a picture or two of the model.

I'm dying here, man. The Falcon is one of my favorite ships, and I can't wait to see how good it will look now!

Personally, given the focus of Caldari culture and ship names on creatures that fly, having more birdlike ships actually makes sense. As well, it was stated that this is intended to show a technological progression and to reflect somewhat the "new way" of ship-building that was introduced with the Tengu.

Also wondering about this. The concept art released for it looks pretty good. I really like the forward section. Overall, it's a lot sleeker than what we currently have.

No.

Unique hull designs for all T2 ships.

A thousand times: Yes! I want a redesign for the Ishtar sooner in particular.

Have a like for being on the side of good and right.

CCP is working on this, BTW.... I trust this is true, but it doesn't stop me from periodically reminding them how excited I am to see the end-results of it :)

Still hoping for pictures. I want to get all hyped about Rhea even more than I am now.

On the topic of the other posts, that Dominix redesign looks excellent, and I still hope we eventually get the Imicus and Atron redesigns. We've obviously gotten the Tristan one they showed at the same time as those two, so one can only hope we see them soon.

Looks by an order of magnitude better then the old design. The question is now: When? Because I'm sure as hell I won't fly the old potato. If I want to look at potatoes, I'll go into my kitchen and prepare lunch.
