So when exactly do we get to see some of those?

Minmatar aren't getting new shaders. It's CCP's way of balancing them against the other races.

I'm thinking they'll come in next expansion. releasing them now would be a bit premature, since issues are still being solved with crucible, along with time dilation. The previous expansion isn't yet completly deployed, so no point in bothering the Dev's for the next. But I too, would enjoy them new textures.

That's the thing. The art department has nothing to do with technical issues from Crucible. I don't know why everyone assumes that because there are "these" problems, that all of CCP are stuck fixing them and nothing else gets done... They've gotta be working on them, if not already having a good chunk of them done. Shove them on Sisi and let us see some of the new skins.

Also, imo, they shouldn't be in the next expansion. Maybe a mini-expansion that updates all the Minmatar and Amarr ships' textures [and their pirate faction variants (ie: Angels)]. There's no reason to delay this 6 months for a summer release if it gets done well before then. Hell, maybe even two mini releases if they get one race done at a time...

This is one of these basic, obvious points that I am routinely horrified to discover that they need to be made at all. Sad

I got the impression, in the lead up to Crucible, that it would have a staggered release, a la the last few expansions. So I think we'll be seeing Red/Gold V3s soon(ish; before the end of February), along with the AF buff, further Hybrid balancing and FW fixes.

Well, okay, maybe not the FW fixes. Lol

I think some of the NPC areadly have the new skins. I'm not sure, but those vengeances in that level 4 amarr mission looked fairly different. Much much better.

if that's so, then it looks like crap @ vagabond. The apocalypse looks okay, but the vagabond, ugh.

Vagabond doesn't have new shaders... not the one I'm looking at. I checked the Stabber and fleet version too, nothing.

Panther and vagabond got the camo removed so they appear a bit brighter in color.

At the moment, the art department seems to be working on new weapon/ewar effects, v3 on Minmatar/Amarr/Pirate, v3 on stations/LCOs, on ship launcher modules, new ship models, and probably a couple secret projects.

V3 on the ships is probably higher priority, but I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get it asap. Maybe 1.3 in March (assuming 1.2 in February)?

Maybe its meant for the spring expansion. I'd love to see Missile Launchers, Drone Bays, Target painter models etc, but I doubt the last two will ever be considered.

The new v3's on the Amarr/Minmatar ships should not be pushed back to some next major expansion. They need to be made and brought in line with Caldari and Gallente...

I think that's what I heard.
