Lagsta Wraith.Wing Aggression.	Posted - 2009.06.16 15:44:00 - [1] So I was playing around on Google Earth the other day and I started finding eve ships loitering around the world, how odd. Abaddon at Vegas Airport Avatar over Rome Hulk flying over the Statue of Liberty Nyx checking out Paris Thorax visiting Sydney Harbour Since the new preview window has come out we now know how big all the ships and stations are in eve. But it's nice to know your Hulk is 660m long but unless you've got something 660m long to compare it to (even I'm not that big) it makes it hard to visualise. So I've ruled some lines in Google Earth to get the exact measurements and placed the ships on top. Enjoy the pics, I might make some more later on if you really want.

Can this be confirmed, because imo that is what these shops have going for them. If they are not correctly scaled there is little point. If they are in scale though, its a great job at displaying the size and relativety of EVE ships. -NWS/Mav I checked the size of the ships in the preview window then drew a line (you can see the measurement in each pic) with google earth and scaled the ships down to cover the line exactly. That's about as accurate as I can make it.

I know they're pretty small, but comparison to train, ships or cars maybe? I've got some requests from corpies aswell, so I'll make a bunch more. So far I'm doing: Domi over Delhi Archon over Melbourne Something sitting over the golden gate bridge, camping it ofcourse. Some smaller ships like frigs.
Lagsta Wraith.Wing Aggression.	Posted - 2009.06.17 09:11:00 - [5] Originally by: Shinnen epic. Drop 5 ogre II's next to the dominix plz :P Would be cool to see a small gang of ships parked somewhere... Though I don't know how much effort this is for you What ships I can't see for real I use the preview window for, but it's not very good lighting in the preview so it can be a real pain in the arse to see where the ship end and the background starts when I'm cutting them out.
Lagsta Wraith.Wing Aggression.	Posted - 2009.06.22 12:32:00 - [6] Hey guys and gals, I know I said I'll make some more but I'be been really busy lately. I managed to finish a domi sitting over Delhi with 5 ogre II's flying around but I'll upload it when I make some more which will hopefully be soon.
