New Stilleto animation feels weird

First a huge thanks for the much needed reskin, but the wing's animation timing feels extremly odd for me.

Currently they start joining before translating forward after the effective jump,in the same way wings start deploying after landing.
This sequence jumping>packing>landing>deploying feels extremely unpleasant on short jump, and just make the whole thing look bad.
Would it be possible for the animation to start during the align for warp , and it the same way have the wings start deploying after the warp decceleration , to have them fully open on landing.
Packing>jumping>deploying>landing
In my opinion this sequence would look much more dynamic than the current one.

Some may not share my opinion but feedback is welcome :)

the solution would be to keep interceptors on grid until the animation finishes

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

That would then make cancelling warp after initiating it just as awkward.

Ugh, and I thought this thread was about animation of shoes while walking in station.

If they're not already first in and last out, they're doing it wrong.

I forgot the reskin was happening, I guess I should log in and see for myself.

I'm waiting for a few more new things before logging in again.

It's funny how the new models and animations are uglier than the original ones.

Good one CCP.

Never not troll. Cool

I logged in to find my beloved Malediction unrecognisable with ridiculous moving bits and spinny things. Rage quit before I could even look at the others.
