So we finally get a navy dominix, so its not a missile-throwing drone-disaster but it will suffice. Fow now. I do remember that some years, months, and days ago someone had actually proposed a different design for the dominix, something less metal potato.
Bonus points in my book if someone can find that picture or alternative dominix's to share with the world.

People have complained about the Dominix design since 2003, unfortunately it's here to stay,.. ugly.

Yeah, I've come to accept that... and honestly, the Domi is ugly as sin, there's no denying it, but it's gotten to the point that it's simply iconic of the ship and that's probably why they won't ever change it. However, on another note, I now have one of those annoying sigs. |

Even if it is Iconic, there could be differing looks to the same ship that were deeper than a new paintjob. Different versions of aircraft, tanks, and firearms look nowhere near the same, perhaps something subtle for differing dominixes? Dominii . . .
At any rate, could anyone find the redesign of the dominix? A guy did one years ago, I think, that was all squared off. Looked like a stealth-homeworld-esque boat.

I kinda like the overall shape and form of the dominix, but they should definitely paint it in a different way and update its textures. Maaaybe some metal attachments at its nose so it looks somewhat like an astarte, or keep it as is and make it one giant smooth metallic looking thing
Space Egg of Doom!!
As for the picture above, it too hastily drawn and I cant quite make out the intended shape.

Hate to complain but yeah...some of the ships that were tweaked/redesigned with trinity (scythe and Minmatar shuttles come to mind) were a huge improvement.
The only reason i don't fly dominixes 23/7 is because of the way they look :(

The domi is as ugly as its fighting style. Next thing you know people will be wanting trolls to look like dainty elves or something. Leave it alone.

Is not that Dominix have an ugly shape, but the design is realy dumb. Too simple and not realy a spaceship shape, etc.
Anyway, the thing is they could made hundreds designs better then this, but why did they chouse the crappiest one? We dont know.
We would be glad, and of cource the rest of EVE players to see a remade of Dominix design.
We can asure CCP this change will not be in vain becose the majority (except those who dont care) of EVE players would be glad to see this change.
OF cource we dont know if CCP will read this thread and after that they will take some decisions..
so... dream on..

I recall a game where they had to add a more human-like and prettier creature to get people to play a certain faction that was normally home to trolls, orcs, undead, and big cow-like creatures.

Dominix is a fantastic ship.
Does it look nice? No. Does that stop me flying it? No.
The looks I've gotten used too really. It is an icon from the Gallente-Caldari war. It isn't meant to look pretty, it's meant to kick ass and that's what it does.

I dont want the domi to change its shape, mainly because I would no longer have my space whales and my sig would lose its greatness.

What the dominix lacks in looks, it makes up for in flexibility.
At least with the graphics update, it now looks less like a giant turd and more like a spaceship - even if it is still a fugly spaceship.

I'd support a redesign but I doubt it would happen.
It's meant to be the 'old warhorse' of the Gallante fleet -but there's no excuse for it being ugly just as vintage cars can still be gorgeous.
It's a shame really. Perhaps we could bribe a dev to put in some overtime?

I never understood the criticism to the Dominix model, when EVE is populated by horrendous designs like the Typhoon and the Moa.
Compared to many ships, the Dominix is beautiful.

Yeah the domi is pretty ugly but the model is a kind of classic so i can see why ccp don't want to change it.
The dominix is a symbol of eve. Eve is an ugly universe, philosophically speaking so the domi is a fitting design in that regard.
