Oh ho oh !

... Oh wait, Aurum.

Lame. LPs were fine and could potentially have been a niche to boost marginal NPC corporations. Again a good idead starting badly.

Also prices are too high. i wouldn't pay more than 0.1$ for a paintjob on a frigate. Maybe 0.2 on a battleship.
1/2$ why not, but on supers then.

I also note that you superbly avoided to translate prices in other currencies because its even more expensive.

I think this is well implemented. I think your roadmap if you decide to go forward looks very promising. So kudos you y'all for putting this together.

I would love to see more skins. Let's be honest who wouldn't? I think investing in that new system where you have the same typeID but different skins would be a very worth while investment. Until that happens, because you don't want to maintain 24 different type IDs, perhaps we could vote on mock ups of the new ship skins so the most popular ones make it to the store?

If under your dream system of lots of skins with only 1 type ID, how would it be possible to sell a skinned ship under a separate market group? No one would want to sell a skinned rifter for the price of an unskinned rifter.

Are you considering adding pirate skins of empire ships or empire corp skins of pirate ships?

How exactly would this work for current in-game assets such as the various skinned Catalysts, Ishokone Watch Scorpion, Nafantar Thrasher, or the 4 racial frigates released in the past, and other limited issue ships? Would some of those potentially be re-released under this program? Would they have the same skin but a different name to maintain the previous limited issue status some of those ships have?

What happens if you skin a ship with a particular corp skin but then go back through and decide to make a T2 version of that ship from that corp?

Also, perhaps you could do ship skins for charity? This would be a smaller buy in for many capsuleers that perhaps can't afford a plex but still want to help out.

Edit: one more question: Can you please make Aurum transferable between character? It would be really nice for something like this.

There will probably be more questions... But thank y'all for putting in the hard work to bring this to reality!

This requires more development time, and while an interesting option, we would first like to see if there is enough demand for ship paints. I think everyone can agree that it would be not so good to spend resources on a project that no one wants in the end.

Better start small, see if people like things, examine things to improve, gather great ideas and then - if it is worth the time - create the full system.

Please remember that this version is just a pilot project!

Would you rather your subscription money pay for ship skins, or more actual gameplay? By charging separately for skins, your subscription money isn't wasted on cosmetics development. Why would anyone complain about this?

You've been nicely formatted indeed

But I don't think CCP hired anyone for this so this is effective dev time wasted.

unfortunately while I love it there is an IP lawyer waiting for something like this. :(

lots of blue hanging around here, figured I'd add another police color to the mix....Woop Woop!

Do ships need to be repackaged to be painted or can we use already fit and rigged ships?

This makes me moist.

The whole customisation vanity item thing isn't my kind of thing, but even I think this is awesome. $0.25 to paint your frigate? $2 to paint your battleship? I'm glad to see you've learned your mistakes from *ahem* past microtransaction updates.

Also, the return of the flashing light Comet? Brilliant!
