If your 12 yearold son really made that without any help then you should consider giving him more challenges like that, developing his skills and (obvious) interest in building stuff, cause he'll make a good engineer/architect when he's older (if he wants to go that route).

Agreed. :O That's pretty amazing.
Of course, don't push him into anything, but your son is pretty awesome (plus he likes Minmatar ships, he would make an awesome EVE player)! ___________________

He really did Even my wife said how good it was. I already knew he had a "engineer" streak and he always has loved building stuff with lego and Knex. I always encourage him to be what he wants to be
Goona try and get him to make a Tempest next :-)

Heh. That's good work for a 12-year-old. Probably sturdier than the 'real' thing.
I can remember doing a similar thing with Lego when I was a kid with my mind fired up by Star Wars, only my attempts at building TIE fighters and X-wings were never as good as that (mind you, '70's Lego was a bit more basic). Lego is just such a superb kid's toy.
If your son can play EVE without getting bored, then it will be a great form of mental stimulation for him, and help him understand a lot of the more abstract elements of human society, such as economics. This is a far better option than so many of those mindless games out there.

Originally by: Sadao I was playing eve and my son who is 12 decided he would like to play, So I let him play my alt and he is loving it.
Anyway he said wanted to go play in his room and would play again later, when he came back he had made this to show me Guess what the ship was he had been trying out
one very proud Dad
You should be one angry dad tbh, eh was supposed to make that from scrap metal and ductape, if only minmatar would use legoish stuff their ships would look better.
Btw awsome kid hehe <SIG> I bought the wife a toy Deimos to have fun with while i play eve!

Back in my childhood we had blocks, lots of blocks, and you were happy!
Back in my day, we had to carve our own blocks.
With flint knives.
That we had to chip ourselves ... ____________
Sadao, cool ship. Cool kid.
Knives????
When I was young, we had to chew the stuff off our own toes and fingers with our teeth. You youngins these days with your fancy knives and blocks.

Keep an eye on him. Unless you want to start talking about epic failures made by people with different sexual orientation etc... It's great from one point of view, but when I'm thinking about what he can encounter here...Dunno I don't think eve is really a game you want your 12yo child to be playing without your supervision.

My son is 12 y/o and whilst I dont want him swearing like a trooper he hears much worse at school. Our guys in corp know to "tone it down" a bit when he is on with me. I only let him play when I am online with him. Besides, I would never "molly coddle" him, hopeully I can prepare him for whatever he faces in the world. BTW, he has had a much bigger leg up than I got when I started eve, He can fly tech 2 frig and has all his learning and boring skills to lvl 5
He is loving it so far but finds the long ops boring, he likes non stop action which is something he will have to learn to cope with. Still waiting for a big loss to truly test his mettle! So whilst helping him on the steep curve I try not to hold his hand too much, but when its your son sometimes you cant help it
Anyway, thanks for all the nice comments, I cant wait to show him the thread. I think he will be pleased.

Can't argue with that. Keep us updated on his progress.

But it was done with style, with consideration to tonal matching and colour contrast.

+1. My vote has been locked in.
Also, your son is flippin awesome. His use of a consistent color scheme, the accuracy of the build, and the creative use of parts is fantastic. He captured the wingy bits very well, and that upper thruster took me by surprise. Using a Star Wars droid???? Nice idea. All I've managed to make so far is a Condor, but it kinda sucks and thats off topic anyway.
A tempest is a good idea, but if you really want to challenge him Minmatar-wise, I say give him the Hurricane to do. First of all I've never beenn able to figure out how to capture the angles myself, I LOVE hurricanes, and it's also one of the few minmatar ships with more interesting forms.
Looking forward to more by him ....by any chance, would he ahve a Brickshelf.com account or something? If not, make him one..or use flickr or something

12year olds aren't really known for their patience and taking losses very well, he will probably need some help to get over that (dunno your son ofc), I hope he keeps playing (1 less kid thats gets tempted to play the game that shouldn't be mentioned) and I bet he is the youngest eve player.
