Well not sure where this goes yet but since this is to be on the test servers 'Soon(tm)' Ill leave my feedback here.

Anyways love the overal design. Its just that the secondary wing past the elbow just looks very out of place.

Any chances you'll picth a version without the forewings around the deparment as an alternative design?

Other than that keep up the good work and thank you for throwing my eve ship studies out the air lock.

That's a salvage drone, not an imicus.

FAIL... totally ugly still - and this is not an Iconic ship hull - no one flys it - I have never seen on in game... I guess someone may fly it but well..

I think CCP should simply totally redo this one - some ships are def keep the shape - as some of them, but some need to just be junked and re-done.

Purifier looks a tad fat, not sure about that one.

Trist and Nemi look excellent

Salvage drones - well I turn drone models - but I guess they look good for anyone doing vids and movies

Crucifer looks very nice proto-types

The "Fish" needs a re-work also - like the Ibis - bascially redo it - that hull just looks just bad... I always am looking for Capt. Nemo when I see that in the market list.

New Missiles look great (turrets/lunchers) BUT... I wondered how they would work with torps on the SBs and well they may need to work on that concept... I can see where the punisher is mounting them but we may want to give the wonder-worm hull a total drop or a diff set of launchers for the same module - or it's going to look like a golden RV I think - "LONE STAR!!!"

over all 9/10 - most of what I see is most escellent.

ew that atron looked like a caldari ship. The wings are so blocky. Navitas, tristan, and the rest look great tho.

The imicus looks ridiculous, had a good laugh over that Lol I agree with you Nova, that the extra sections of their legs are very out of place, and it would look much better without the extensions.

The rest are excellent though; I was wondering how they were going to fit 2 gun turrets and 2 missile launcher turrets onto the tristan, and the answer was to redesign it Smile

A definite improvement. Would be nice if one of the graphics team saw this and revised the design Blink

This is a significant improvement from the original horror. Removing the wings altogether (but leaving the side 'pods') would be even better.

If only this was a combat ship. :c Still, either of these would be cool to see IMO.

I'm kind of sad that the Blackbird isn't in this grouping of ships being reworked though.

I'm under the impression that they're doing the frigate models in time for the first wave of ship balancing, which will be just the frigates (and probably destroyers). So, as we get more ship balancing later in the year, they come with new models Big smile
