those models look awesome.... even the minnie one looks alot sturdier :)

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

Impairor looks nice.

Ibis looks like a T3 frigate, I prefer the old one as it looks worthless, wheras a T3 look doesn't.

Velator doesn't really look organic enough to be gallente to me, but it does look cheaply constructed

Reaper looks like a chunky World of Warcraft cartoon spaceship.


CCP how about remaking the Naglfar so it has space for more guns so we don't have to put up with such a ridiculous split weapon setup?

All of them a million times better than the originals. I never understood why the Velator had a wing that was so rounded off...just looks odd. That new one looks much better. The Minmitar one reminds me of a motorcycle with one of those little passenger cars attached to it.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

Great allocation of resources.

Redesign ships that get used for a couple of hours before they're handed an upgrade which now looks worse.

gallente less organic more military styled deco.

I expected a more massive change but these models dont have thier maps yet so maybe theyll chnage how they look even more.

Do EVE ship designers have some sort of religious belief that strictly forbids the use of symmetrical designs?

Now just give them a stat buff and newbies can actually have fun playing the game in their rookie ships.

The drugs they take while designing the ships make them forget what they made the other side of the ship look like.

The designers of the Aeon died from an overdose

Not all resources are equal.

Tasks can not be sped up by just throwing more bodies at them. There's always diminishing returns.

Woo! CSM XI!

Symmetry can be difficult, but that's why artists draw centre lines otherwise you might as well be drawing blindfolded.

Also, not an official EVE video >_<

New Velator hull looks good, not sure how well it fits with the rest of the Gallente line-up. Depending on your point of view, that may be for the best.

Ibis doesn't strike me as a Caldari ship, though there is a resemblance to the shuttle or somesuch. Final version may change my mind.

Impairor looks the least changed, and again is nudged closer to the shape of the shuttle.

Reaper looks more like a spaceship, but I still don't care for the design. Seems like the engines would tear it apart now.

They redo the Ibis completely but leave the Velator as a flying tumormobile... sigh.
