Busted!

I could sit down and teach myself how to use Blender and make ship models.

Really, there are some ship models that are just plain silly.

Moa doesn't may any sense. I understand wanting to have asymmetrical ships. I really do. The Moa hull is not good enough to justify being used for 3 different ships.

Sorry for the necro, but if Art isn't the bottleneck, why don't we see more new art assets or redesigns?

4 ships. Moa, Onyx, Gila, and the other t2 one no one cares about.

This week for work purposes I had to mod a DXF file. This is not my field.

So now I have a lot of respect for the people who do all that modelling and stuff. That's crap's hard.


Still, the Moa. C'mon what were they thinking? I think it had to be corrupted model file that slipped through and they just went with it.

Hi CCP Art Gang

Do you not notice the tons of posts over the years about how impossibly ugly the Moa is and how the Space Turd/Whale/Nutsack aka Dominix continue to be ridiculed for its looks despite it being a damn fine ship?

Throw us a bone for your loyal capsuleers that have been waiting for ages. You've changed quite a fair bit of models and added some truly awesome ones but these two or three (Imicus) remain to be quite frankly relegated to "ugliest ships ever created" I wonder if you had stuck the Moa at MOMA instead of something else, people would lol so hard "wtf is that?"

So I implore you don't forget the Uglies!

Original, yes. Very science-fictiony, yes.

But it also makes my eyes bleed -- which is doubly disappointing because stats-wise, both the Moa and the Gila are decent ships otherwise.

Don't forget the Raven. Oh wait...

No...I am right. Raven needs a redesign.

And that idiotic looking Caracal.

Plus about two dozen other ships, sadly. TIme sure took its toll on their models.

Also, POS mods...nevermind, the whole POS system.
There is a certain irony in the fact people use this acronym when they talk about starbases. And yes, I applaud your upcoming band-aid to the POS implementation. Just remember it's just a band-aid. We'll need something more substantial eventually.

Even better, why does not CCP put some time into design and come up with different designs for ships that look identical to each other, brutix - astarte, cyclone sliep claymore such examples.
It is kind of embarrassing that ccp cant come up with different designs for each ship but just rip off the design from one ship to another and just change specs and so forth.


We are starting to do that for every ship redesign.




Its understandable to have similar looking hulls, however reskins just seem lazy to new players who want to fly cool stuff, not stuff that just works well. Thanks for letting us know people are on top of that.

By similar hulls, I mean the merlin->hookbill. They are structurally similar in a cool way. Tempest -> vargur is a pretty good example too.

It would be nice if navy ships had a bit of variation as well, albeit less than the T2 stuff.



making model changes for every ship version takes alot of time and ressources

But you can do it! Everything awesome in life takes a lot of time and resources. No one doubts your ability to do this, and we're all willing to wait if the end result is going to be amazing (eg. Tristan -> Nemesis).
