I honestly think it's about time someone did something to make the Thrasher look less like a giant, metallic Gubby-fish. It just doesn't fit with Minmatar to have a giant fish-shaped ship. |

The Thrasher is awesome! One of the genuinely mean-looking ships in the game. (And the Sabre paintjob just makes it meaner.) |

There's asymmetrical ships that most people agree look nice:

But those are minor asymmetricalities, not ridiculous ones like the osprey and moa, that just look like nonsense.

Raven hulls are ******* ugly
Moa makes me want to puke
Rokh its fine but it lacks details and a meaner look, maybe its too small and slim?
Abaddon is awesome but still looks like a chubby BFG goon, maybe it could be made longer to look bigger and meaner.
Harbinger, could get its wings sweep a little backward.
Prophecy its a fat chicken.
Condor, way too plain and square for a fast captor ship, given caldari nature, i would really expect it to be much sleeker.
Any capital ship. looks like piece of crap, if not by the model, then because the textures have an obscenely low resolution.
Revenant!!!!! its a space flying turd, that also lacks any decent firepower or battle worth features. |

Every ship with a drone bay that does not have a drone bay modeled onto the ship. The list on this one is extremely long... CCP Even managed to drop the ball on the new vagabond/stabber fleet issue and imo both ships need a very moderate remodel to include some sort of small drone bay. |

I like it's paint job, however the hull could use a bit of work (it has the right ECM'y feel, but its a bit too ugly, needs a visible cockpit and a bit less blockyness) |

Crucifier :)
I'm really happy with the treatment the Maller received at some point (I forget when, but it used to be one ugly mother). The Damnation, with its black color, is almost good enough to take my spot for "sexiest ship in the game" even without being slimmed down. But if that Prophecy hull wasn't so fat, good god, what a beauty that Damnation would be <3 |

I agree with this and, oddly enough, I am of the opinion that there should be larger stations. I mean when was the last time you actually felt like Jita 4-4 was big enough to be the trade hub it seems? Shouldn't there be a feeling of awe you get as you warp up to it? How do all those ships fit on the undock? (Hint: They don't! :P)
A new, improved, much larger Jita 4-4 would make a lot of sense and add a ton of flavor. Trade hub stations ought to have grown in size more. :) So say in Rens, Dodixie, and Amarr maybe too. That Emperor Family Academy sure is used for a lot more than schooling, yet it remains one of the smaller Amarr stations. |

From an aesthetic POV, I have to agree that the new Tempest/Stabber models look better than they used to, however, they look far too clean and hightech now.
Minmatar ships were supposed to look like some insurgents taped them together from debris - now they look more slick and hightech than any other race.
Moreover, color schemes aside the new Maller and Stabber models look like they were different ships from the same race.
The new Mega model is a perfect example of how ships should be updated whilst retaining their character and looks great, but considering the direction CCP is taking with Minmatar/Amarr hulls, I'll be careful what I'm asking for, but since my opinion is irrelevant here are some hulls that need work (naming the T1 base):
- Apoc - Prophecy - Harbinger - Aeon - Dominix - Blackbird - Moa
With the exception of the Aeon that looks like a wreck where one side exploded and thus should be completely redone, it should just be touchoups similar to the new Mega though. |

I'll just emphasize how awesome a mining barge redo would be. Reconceive them along the lines of the Noctis, Rorqual and Venture for maximum win. Leave the Orca alone, though. |

Remiel Pollard wrote:Every sci fi has to have it's ugly ships. Anything Klingon, for example. Look at it this way: consider the starships designers of New Eden in parallel with car designers of the real world (I know, another "RL" comparison - sue me). The Subaru WRX is one of the ugliest cars on the road, but it goes harder than most others in its class. Ferrari could use a facelift, too. Lamborghini's look gorgeous, but they're too heavy and cumbersome for any real performance applications. Yes, I am aware that they race them, but the Nissans are the ones that are winning the GT1s.
If every ship was beautiful, there would be no art. There would be no comparison. And on that note, beauty is in the eye of the beholder - one man's Maserati is another man's eyesore (it's my favourite Italian maker, tbh, but I'll admit they don't even come close to the gorgeousness of an Alfa Romeo, which by the way WILL fall apart the moment you touch it).
I like all the ships the way they are. I like the changes that were made to the Mega and the Vaga and the others, and I liked their old models too. I like the ugly ships, even the Moa, because without them, we would have no appreciation for the gorgeous ones like the Talos and the Hyperion. You may disagree that these are good looking ships, but you're making part of my point for me by doing that - what I find gorgeous, you might find ugly. And it's why any serious overhalls of ship design should not be made.
Perhaps a tweak here and there to update ships, like with the Mega - sure, it looks different now, but all in all, it's still the same size, and general shape, and I think that's important. This is original art we're talking about here, and so would be a new Moa, more than likely, but changing it would only demean the artwork that makes EVE unique.

I'm with this guy, compared to the Omen, all other cruisers look small and puny. Now if only more people would start flying one, Eve would become 20% sexier
As for ships that need changing, yeah pretty much all Cadari cruisers need to loose their random legobrick design. I know they were designed based on birds, but damn those are some ugly birds!
Also, DON'T TOUCH THE MALEDICTION!!!!! Unless you're gonna add more engines on the back, that'd be fine >.>' |

Right, okay, so I'm not 100% in favor of any major overhauls/complete redesigns of many ships, which is why the topic asks about "Touch-ups" particularly, however, some of the minmatar ships I believe could do with a remodelling.
There are definitely some great-looking ships that also look rag-tag and not really high-tech. I get that Minnie is supposed to be like that, and that's awesome. But just because it's rag-tag or on limited resources doesn't mean the vessel had to have been designed by a complete idiot engineer. The Minmatar are brilliant at adapting on limited resources -- some of the best engineers around have to come from there now, right? So, honestly, how did the Bellicose happen? That thing is like my little brother's structurally unsound Lego creations that can snap with a wee little jab at it. |
