Mega/Mach model has a random engine on top please remove it

This should have been a poll, not a thread.

As for ship redesign, please CCP, stay in tune with the spirit of the ships design. Keep the caldari that ridged boxy design, the scrap metal rust of minmitar, the metallic sleek gold of amarr and the oval organic feel of galentea. Just make the ships more visually appealing while staying in touch with their respective traits (i. e. Scorpion). Also please fix the pirate faction ships that don't have a unique hull.

Just because their named after birds does not mean they take on bird traits. If that was the case then why would they name a ship after an insect?

The odd engine thingi on Mach and Mega looks just stupid and annoying. For gods sake this engine is not even working! Also pls remove the side sponson on the front of the Omen. DonGÇÖt damage my beloved Amarr ships with asymmetric design! Leave that for Minmatar junk ;).

Also Absolution/Prophecy - the model is very cool, but outdated . It is too fat and too short. Make it longer and remove the fat belly, it looks like itGÇÖs pregnantGǪ

BTW if u change my dear Absolution to Harbinger model I will hack EVE, fly a dread fleet to high sec and destroy every station with your clone on it. Then again a Hurricane model on on Sleipnir would be sexy.

Ps. DonGÇÖt care for Caldari much but their entire frigate, cruiser an probably bc line needs a serious work (with nuclear blasts).

That Engine thing on the mega is not an engine

shrugs.... but loads of caldari ships have wings so...

Doesn't mean there not ridged and boxy. Look at their design, each one has sharp (almost) 90-¦ angels. The body on most is very squarish, Kestel, Moa, Caracal, Drake, Raven, Bantan, Rokh, Blackbird, Ferox... each of these hulls have very ridged and boxy like designs to them. Its the Caldari look. Wings or no wings, this is the way they were designed.

whatever it is it needs to be deleted

Ships aren't necessarily symmetrical in real life. Just look at any aircraft carrier - the command tower will be off the one side of the flight deck, and the deck itself is usually an asymmetric shape.

Not everybody is so OCD as to find even the slightest hint of asymmetry annoying - I personally like them.

The most dramatic ships that need a total remodel.. The Dominix.... the Dominix by FAAAAAAAAAAR.

The Dominix is the old workhorse of the Gallente Navy. More to that is that this workhorse has been redone quite a bit, and while being a mainstay of the Gallente Navy, is massively out of date regarding spec's. If I were a gambling man, I would leave the Navy Dominix as the current Dominix hull (the Spacewhale, potato shoe turd), and re-purpose the base Dominix to This:

That ship took 2nd place. Just tint it green.

I would love the Vexor to be redone, maybe look something like this.

Now looking at its design from the Vexor, the changes are not overly substantial. Again I would leave the Navy Vexor as the original Vexor hull (The Gallente Navy don't like spending isk on new design ships when they can just buy the old ones rotting away for cheap and repurpose them), and change the Vexor and the Ishtar to the above (gives the newer people interesting new ship designs while keeping the old workhorse as the new navy variant).

Yes I know these are iconic, but Iconic does not mean "Stuck as is forever," they aren't historical monuments. The original flavor of the ships will be kept in the navy version of the hulls (which is important as the navy would keep an older model as it would cost the Navy Department Much Less to buy the old Dominix's and repurpose them, than buy the new updated model just to make them as useful as the old models, but cost a bunch more for designer "fluff".

You can design two new hulls for these two old favorites, re-giving them life.

The other benefit, the two above art submissions were submitted through your eve arts contest, so I believe you have the right to use these ship designs ALREADY (submissions are legal tender that they give up the right of the design and maybe used in game as CCP sees fit, check your legal).

That design is more along Caldari lines of ship design - Corax draws heavily on navy/submarine theme. If the devs give me a caldari gunboat looking like that I will give them my firstborn.

nope

just release a symmetrical megathron with dronebay of 75m3 and drone bandwidth of 0Mbit i'm sure it'll be a smashing success

Megathron is already a smashing success.

I'm listening
