Edited by: Xero Cell on 21/10/2010 09:58:33 Looks like they just locked a dozen or more topics concerning the contest. Tornado replaced the LA Battlecruiser in the top 15 and Deviantart gave an extremely insulting official statement (concerning their choice of the top 15) to the Eve Community. (check the Assembly Hall board)
That's the news so far. However, there's no way in heck we should let this slide still. A good 10 out of 15 of the entries left are still terribad (compared to the many other excellent entries out there). There needs to be a non-lazy team chosen to pick a new 15, a team that goes through every single entry and actually plays Eve Online. Many ships that fit the game world really well got ignored or never looked at due to the extreme lack of competence of Deviantart.
Deviantart needs to burn and this contest still needs Re-judged entirely. The eve-community will gladly wait longer to have a new ship added. We'd rather a fair contest happen than this crap.
edit: it's really messed up that they closed that petition so early. if they had given it another day or two, it would have shattered petition records. the community had less than 12 hours to even reply to it and give their signature. if u still want to give a sig, ya'll should sign up for the one in the Assembly hall.

Just repeating what I've recently said on the EVE Online "Create A Starship" Semi-Finalists page:
Maybe to fix things CCP should pick another 15 competition submissions as well, still keep the DA choices, and pick the winners from the full 30 submissions. Whats worse, having to fork out 15 extra token prizes or the current disharmony? Would save a lot of face :) win win
Sounds reasonable to me..if it means my ship is Lammergeier is black listed I don't care, just give me a ship I want to buy and fly!  --------------------------------------------- Francis Wolcott: "I am a sinner that does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official."

Using judges who might never have played the game, who have no understanding of the racial design language and heritage is pretty much :lolCCP:. Thing is, it doesn't matter because the 2 really good designs made it in (next to some horrible ones), there's one Gallente design I'm missing but having to make a choice it wouldn't be the winner anyway.
- Naru-Kami - Tornado
These are the two best, the only thing CCP should do is instead of choosing one of them they should use BOTH.

I'm shocked. Most of the semifinalists don't fit into EVE at all.
There are a lot of good designs and tbh CCP should add a new battleship for each race using the ideas from the Tornado. Seeing as the Caldari already have an ewar bs give us a caldari bs that can launch 5 heavies please .
My favourites
Minmatar - Tornado Gallente - Aquilon Caldari - Naru-Kami
And even though it is desinged to be a bc model i really think it would fit to be a bs model Amarr - Precursor

In all honesty i feel the Naru Kami shares too much with Gallentean design. Also the fact that op and bottom views are cramped to fit the page don't do them justice. That aside, i'd rather see the Stahlvogel as caldari, eventhough that design feels a bit more anime than EvE. Most likely due to the particular use of color. ___________

I agree that it isn't perfect for Caldari, yet it still looks more Caldari than Gallentean to me.
I was intrigued by the Stahlvogel design at first but after looking at it for a while i don't really see a good fit into the EVE universe. Not saying its a bad design in general though.
also, disclaimer: this is just my opinion

I¦ve been working/doing 3d arts and renderings for over 10 years now. When i got time I do some funny eve-art stuff for the german community. Here just few examples (so ya can see that I know what I am talking about)
Jack Damsels Whiskey Stranded Drones Dragon Tengu
CCP should send some 30day trials to the DA judge team so they can spend some time in eve online cause I guess they never did... I know that it is a matter of taste but there are a lot of ships that would even fit much better into the eve universe than most of the 15 finalists. CCP should take their own 15 ones - doesn¦t matter how long it would take.
PS: I bet the DA judges belong to "civillian stuff" :)

If some of the best entries were disqualified because they didn't follow the rules than maybe the rules were no specified correctly.
These entire contest was a joke and a waste of time for those that really put in the work I know I was one of them.
CCP should take matters in own hands and get judges directly from the art team. Also give them like a month or so to see ALL entries and rethink the rules, just because a ship has or not don't know what in the presentation, should not be reason to dis consider the concept.
I think that if these doesn't get solved eve will loose more that it will win.

Here's hoping CCP won't put up with this. They certainly deserved to have a fitting pool of semi-finalists to choose from, not this travesty.
The DA judges chose poorly. Shameless self-promotion aside, how in hell did line drawing of a catalyst beat out this???!

While a lot of these submissions are cool, not all of them fit any race profiles. You can SAY that it is meant for a specific faction, but if it doesn't look the part then who cares. All i see is a bunch of whiners complaining that the ones that they made or the ones their friends made didn't make it (not all posts but some).
Oh and the tornado? that thing is ugly as hell.

I think there is quite a margin that can be hand as your assuming a role - I always felt that serpentis could do with some love, at the moment they reuse thorax and megathron models then have the daredevil for their frigate, which is quite a mismatch in some ways looking very much more like the angel line up. You could argue the whole range should be up for some remodelling.
Also if you looked at creating a sisters of eve ship then your have a wide range of what you can do there too.
I think going for empire faction designs is far to limiting since it would invariably have to be introduced as a set of 4, or replacing an existing model.
Also whats to stop them introducing a new range of models like they did with the Sleepers (perhaps a Talocan or Yan Jung ship) - although that would be a lot of work in itself and a bigger leap to make.

I suggest that we already have 3 tiers of empire faction battleships and don't need another. Lets have another battlecruiser or a non empire faction ship.

Just read through the thread and I would like to say thanks to all those who liked my design (tornado). I kinda wanted to make sure that there was at least one decent entry that wasn't just a hanger ornament although I knew there where many DA members who played EvE.
I'm pretty miffed by the selection process too, I wouldn't mind a re-vote as some of the current entries are in-congruent with the rule standard DA are applying and would probably go some way towards saying that they could be trusted with competitions of this stature. Anyway, good luck to the other semi finalists either way. ____ *New* - Tempest/Maelstrom |

I dont get why they changed the semi finalists which makes the contest incredible fishy, but grats that your ship made it finally. The rest should be easy going for you.
I would love to fly the reverse myrmidon

Stop the whining. Some of these look really nice!
Tornado is particularly sweet :)
Don't forget, the CCP art team will take these and work them over. I'd see them as 'concepts' only... not final art. So they can tweak them to be more in-line with a specific race without too much trouble.

Vision - Looks good. Too bad we might never get to play with it or even see it as it jovian.
It dosn't matter if it resembles Jovian design or claims to be jovian. If it makes it to first place guess what....you get to fly it . Not that I would choose this one anyway. I personally hope the Tornado wins.

Yes the tornado that wasn't actually a semi-finalist when this all began, but was added later for whatever reasons you want to believe. The ship people said deserved the place more than any of the semifinalists and got mysteriously added later while the most offencive semifinalist people complained about got removed.
The amount of altering needed on some of those desings to make them fit in to EVE will pretty much nullify most of the hard work the original creator did. The only thing left would be the generic shape and at that point there was no point having a competition about it in the first place. CCP could have just allowed us to vote on different basic shapes(omega/, circle, ring, box) and then build a model based on it. Would have been basicly the same thing and saved everyone a lot of time and work.

Originally by: Persona n0ngrata I really don't see why people keep comparing this ship (Tornado) to the myrmidon. It doesn't look anything like the Myrm and its only similar detail is that its a vertical design in which case you'd do no better than to compare it to the naglfar.
How can you not see it? It looks just like a flipped and mirrored Myrm with some rust on it (and with shades of some non-canon TIE models slapped on for good measure). Its top (now bottom) wingy bit is a bit larger, but that's about it.
I find it rather derivative and uglyà whether that makes it fit with EVE and Minmatar, respectively, is a different matter. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

I think it's hard to make a original vertical ship, that's why we dont have many in Eve. The tornado has the general shape of the a reversed myrmidon but there are more example of that. The problem with this damn contest are the rules, wich stated that the ship should fit in eve universe AS IS PRESENTED(so that the eve artistic will re-do it in a better way is not a concern), the judges take into account originality, creative presentation and artistic skill... Give these and then you make a selection of absolutely non eve ships, or ship without any presentation(ok now the LAlol is removed) or ship similar(or the same) as ships in the game. I can see the hull of prophecy, a iteron with a little mask and some other... Plus jovian... by BG in eve you cant fly jovian so why make a jovian ship pass? Boh :-) And the rules about line drawning.... i dont know why my model(1 2) got disqualified? They dont give me the present so i guess so... but why? They just selected some entry without give a word on ANYTHING! We deserve at least some explaination(even little) if our project got rejected! and i dont complain that i didnot win lol i know my skill is not comparable to other ship...... that didnot make into semi final for that crap?
