One corporate paint job for each race using the standard t1 exploration ship stats like the catalyst painted ship variations.

I think Minmatar get the short end of the stick.
So the question, more GTC gimicks? Or winter gift?

Are there bonuses? Anything other than color?

Have you ever tried to paint over rust? It is damn near impossible to get it to stick.

Same stats and bonus as t1 counterparts. Just unique skin.

No, gallente definitely do. *vomit*

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

And so we begin to see the first steps being taken for a wider variety of paint jobs being available in EvE (first the Catalysts and now this).

The only sour note is that god awful hull we are still stuck with on the Imicus. Smile

It's like Herbie the Love Bug, R2D2, and an outrigger canoe all colided together at high speed and became permanently engangled.

The gallente one looks like an oddly shaped cheese puff you stare at for a couple of seconds before eating....

The probe takes no prizes for looks, I'll grant you that... but at least it's layout makes some sort of sense.

Too true.

Feeling ambivalent toward this sort of offering. Perhaps if a Comet without space camo was on offer, I would take the plunge.

Probe is a Firefly look-alike. It wins by default. The Magnate and Heron look pretty win too though.

You've heard the saying "I"m going to kick you so hard your children are going to limp"?

That's what happened to the Imicus.

It is a bit weird they used Sarum for the magnate. Its a royal family "corp" yet it backs Carthum Conglomerate t2 producer. So they override the tech corp with the family colors. So its a bit funky to give t2 colors to a t1 ship.
The other corps used for the other races seem to have a more "humble" origin.

Carthum Conglomerate btw, now using their own logo on t2 ships in duality, yet still using Sarum colors.

Good idea. I'd love to be able to customize ships.

I just turned into an egg, did I level up? I spent an hour trying to salvage a wreck, when in local a guy said "Stop it, this is my Tempest, I was AFK"

They need to let us start putting decals, like our corp. or alliance symbols, pretty ladies and animals from the eve universe,onto our ships. How can this not have been done yet? Pirate

I would exclusively fly Comets if they had the police colouring that they have for the Gallente Customs

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.
