 It started with the "improvement" of ship (shader) models in what was called the "premium client" back then. All T1 Caldari ships got the same boring blue, all Gallente ships got that TERRIBLE highly-toxic-waste-green, etc.. I still hate the Gallente T1 style.
 
 Nice T2 hulls like the Phobos got their colors totally washed out (I really liked the "classic" pink!). Also the Ishkur, Ishtar, and so on.
 
 Now it hit the nicest (IMO) of all T2 ship hulls, and it hit them badly: Paladin, Absolution, Retribution. Did I forget one of those lovely ships patterned in gold and blood? Now the blood has dried, and it stinks :-(.
 
 To make it worse, the nice Redeemer green is hardly a green anymore o.O.
 
 Anybody else dislikes where this is going?
 
 On the plus side, I really liked (and still like) the new Navy Geddon and Apocalypse painting. The new Damnation is also pretty awesome.

 Yeah, CCP has done a number on the Amarr ship hulls this time around....
 
 I hope when they update lighting and such things will look better. Right now the entire Amarr fleet has replaced the old Dominix as the "Flying Dog Turd".

 New lighting? I hope it will also improve the nice green on Gallente T2 hulls... the GREAT Ishtar green and white, the lovely Sin, and the sweet Ishkur green. And PLEASE also the Phobos, Lachesis, and Oneiros red :-(.

 There were about 5 threads detailing how terrible the new Amarr ships looked in the Test Server sub-forum. The ships have all lost their shiny gold and bright red colors. The only explanation given to us was these updated shaders were necessary so the ships would be ready for V4. When further questions were asked, there were no answers.
 
 Not sure how new shaders could totally wash out a ship and dull out the colors. I'll be a sad panda when I log on tonight after work

 Meh, that's kind of like an answer you get when asking a salesperson about anything technical. Maybe the new shaders only allow for one bit for the saturation value? lol

 So you can't can't tell in that video that the colors are super dark in the preview window for new ammar ships?

 I watched your video, and the preview window is darker, yes.
 
 But the actual ship skins do still look pretty bad, and are still far too dark.

 I don't think I have the absolute response, however may I ask you to consider some points:
 
 -Directx used in Eve is not the latest one
 
 -Hardware speaking, witch one is your graphic card? -witch leads to some other questions:
 Are your drivers up to date?
 Did you installed clean drivers and not on top (ATi GC's essentially since those are known for their horrible drivers)
 Are you using some experimental drivers? (you shouldn't, but it's a personal opinion)
 Are you sure your GC is working perfectly? (clean of all dust, proper drivers, proper connections/input(voltage)
 
 Just a simple example and this is good for ATi as for nVidia cards, if you don't have the proper power plant in your system this can make you have tons of horrible graphic bugs. Be sure this is correct for your setup, many manufacturers offer you the possibility to watch this out with simple programs you can trust (known manufacturer)
 
 I do have some issues with my GC too, however those are annoying only after at least 1K players in the same system. Doesn't mean I have a perfect stuff or whatever, far from me, but those little points can increase the number and quality of issues you can experience.

 Looked through a few Amarr ships I own.
 Abaddon: Was pleased.
 Retribution: Surprised at color reversal, but I like it.
 Haven't had a chance to look at most of the others. But from what I've seen I like it.

 I can actually tell you the opposite.
 
 Maybe the problem doesn't come from your hardware but from the high opinion you have of your own hardware knowledge?
