That looks a lot like the default holding ship ccp use on the test server..

And a star destroyer :P

Haha, yes, I realized- I actually used it somewhat as inspiration- the aesthetic of the shape seemed to fit its name, at least to me, so I took it and made it into a Sisters of EVE battleship. And yes, it does look like a star destroyer :P

I also took some inspiration from Space Battleship Yamato, but I suppose that isn't as immediately apparentBig smile

source clarification: http://capitalstorm.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/wpid-20131130_104514.jpg

the word is: low mass (for wormholes), but not covert ops cloak capable.

Until all are free...

I really think that could be a useful idea- I just don't like the two huge wings sticking out of it too much What?

Interesting, though. I just wish they'd make it a little more sturdy looking- it looks kind of delicate.

Like the fact we get a new BS. Dont like the 2 huge wings sticking out of it - ruins the look of the ship completely.

Yeah,they don't compliment the hull at all- it looks really strange. I'm happy to get a new BS though- even if it won'd do well in it's designated area of operation- wormholes. Sleepers don't like drones very much Lol

At least it's white. Interesting that it has a shuttle bay...

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Yeah, very- I'm curious to see where this'll go.

But I'm also hoping it has HUGE drone bay- 800m3 is my highest hope Big smile

@OP: Wow... At first, when I looked at your sketch, I wanted to say "It's a star destroyer rip off!". But then, I looked closer and saw the more elegant lines and curves from the other angles and I gotta say, I'm VERY impressed. I WANT this design in game. When looking at an Astero, and then the Stratios in my hangar, I can see that the manner in which you designed this ship is indeed an 'evolutionary step' in the progression of this ship's aesthetics.

I sincerely hope CCP looks at this and takes it seriously. This is GREAT!

When have you ever known CCP to substantially change something once they've tentatively announced it?

I'd rather have a Frigate Bay. Twisted

Wow, thanks for liking it so much! Big smile I put a lot of thought into it- I had really hoped that CCP would see it before they made their own design, but oh well-I had a good run Smile Maybe they'll see it anyways and say "Good Job" or something Lol
