My favorite ship in need of a new look is the Iteron Mark V.
It looks like they took 2 Iteron Mark IIIs and shoved one up the other's um, er, exhaust tubes.
Also, some of the Minmatar ships are kind of unfinished. You can see hollow spaces where there should be none.
What ships would you like to see have their looks improved?
I, for one, welcome our new Jovian Overlords! |

The tempest need's to be looked at come on if you was to fire 1 1400mm you would rip the ship apart and you can put 6 on it.

All of the asymmetric Caldari ships have an awesome half and a lame half. Please please please cut off the lame half and mirror the awesome half! Aside from the things that look like bridges, of course. Ships generally do not have two of those. _________________________________________________________

The black bird
its troubling to note that the entire ship looks like it was made by randomly hitting the exstrude command on a 3d modeler its not just assymetric, its just... random mabey thats why it's such an efficent ECMer it doesnt have to actually turn on the ECM it just needs to get a ship' sensors to actually try to make sense of the hull geometry

I like Minmatar ships. You can say what you want about the Caldari, but frankly, Minmatar ships look the most 'human'.
Of course, I'd never fly a Minmatar ship unless drunk, so here's a rundown on the unquestioned strength-of-ugliness of the Amarr Navy:
Frigates: Okay, they're frigates. Rah.
Cruisers: The Omen and Arbitrator are the only passable cruisers. The Augoror obviously isn't finished being built yet, and the Maller is hands down the ugliest ship in the game - not even the vile profile of the Moa can top it.
Battlecruiser: Cut the beak a bit and stretch it out, for it presently appears to be an obese pelican.
Battleships: While the Apocalypse looks unfinished with a bunch of pointy whatevers sticking out of it randomly, the Armageddon is by far the coolest battleship in the game. It's a ship that warps onto a field of battle, shouts, "I'm a warship, raaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!" and proceeds to kick arse in style. In short, we can forgive the lackluster design of the Apoc, so don't waste your time here, see what you can do about the Cruiser-class ugliness.

Just about all the caldari ships are retarded to me, it's like they intentionally just fubar'd half of each ship. The merlin hull is about the only one that survived the masacre.
Like the Raven, almost looks cool, but one half is like smaller than the other, then you got those 2 square 'rooms' just sticking up. Moa, man lets not even go there, that things is just crazy, Kestrel, not too bad here, again though one side just intentionally messed with. Scorpion, omg don't get me started there, they just never even finished that ship apparently.

lets be honest.. not a single ship in the game was intentionaly made 'pleasing' to the eye. They went out of their way with every ship design to make it as ugly and 'unlikly' as possible so that no one would later come up and say "hey, that was my design in (insert date here) and I want to sue!"
Some just happened to come out looking 1/2 assed decent.. the rest were 100% successes.
Sorry.. but eve is not about ship design(but I REALLY wish they would do a total rehaul of ALL the damn designs in the game and let some REAL artists design the ships.. bring in a few physicists, and mathematicians, to make sure the designs would 'work' in zero gravity(or at least inside this 'fluid' space we have in eve) to make the realists (like me) a little happier. (IE: things like "That rocket there would cause that ship to spin uncontrollably, etc")
Ah well.. do u think that CCP would actualy LISTEN to us though? we pay for our subscriptions..thats all they want from us.. move along now.. nothing to see here.. (thread gets locked......)

Me too.  
And /sign on the Cald ships. I rather like the way a lof the Min ships look. Except AIR VENTS ON A SPACE SHIP?! Makes sense for planetary flight, tho. I just wish they'd animate it so it would close when undocking from stations and stuff. that'd be awesome.

The Heron and Kestrel are the best looking frigates in the game IMO, and the merlin is above avarage. The Raven has some good parts and bad parts, but the scorpion is just silly. The Ferox and Cormorant place a distant second behind the Brutix and Cyclone in the looks department IMO. Sadly all of the cruisers are horrible looking with the Caracal ranking at the top with "somewhat passable".
Personally I think the Tempest and Typhoon are the best looking battleships in the game, and the Rupture is quite nice looking too.

Well, anytime I see something that looks like an A/C vent in your home/office, I imagine Air Vents of some sort.
But good point, besides, the Rifter models are one of the sexiest models in EVE.

Originally by: Jacinto Naysmith The Ferox and Cormorant place a distant second behind the Brutix and Cyclone in the looks department IMO.
I think that the Ferox and Cormorant both look great, although the Ferox would look WAY better if they just tweaked it slightly by making the thrusters on the sides symmetrical, instead of having them at different angles.
Originally by: Jacinto Nysmith Sadly all of the cruisers are horrible looking with the Caracal ranking at the top with "somewhat passable".
Agreed.
Originally by: Jacinto Nysmith Personally I think the Tempest and Typhoon are the best looking battleships in the game
Nonsense, the Armageddon and Megathron are by far the best-looking battleships in the game.

Dunno what it is but it occurs on many Minmatar ships and the Apoc. Makes them look like they haven¦t been groomed properly.
Actually it¦s propably supposed to be some kind of antennae. But on the Apoc it makes me want to order a brazilian wax treatment.

Am I the only one that thinks the ship designs are great as they are right now? Not ok the way they are but great. I don't want them to be what every high school kid in the world thinks is "cool looking". I want them to be odd, unexpected etc. It implies that somethings we have not considered went into their design.

Was getting desperate reading this thread, but then i read these 2 posts. Can¦t really think of a ship i really dislike the looks of. Sure i like some more than others( who doesn¦t?). But then again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

The Amarrian Arbitrator has a few unaligned textures on its bottom half, making it look unfinished, and this is not intentionally so. Its just not properly UV-maped.

Yeah, I think at some stage (when there are less pressing issues, such as upgrading the server), the devs should look into redoing all the textures of the ships, particularly most of the cruisers and battleships. You just can't compare the newer capital class ships, or the battlecruisers against them in terms of texture quality. Even the megathron, being one of the better looking old ships in the game, now looks a tad shoddy up close.
Unless I'm horribly mistaken, the capital class ships use bump mapping to make the models look far more detailed than they actually are? Anyway, if last years fanfest was anything to go by, the devs are looking at bringing dx9 effects into the fray. Hopefully they'll look into providing an optional hi-res skin pack with it for those of us with remotely modern computers..

I like just about every ship that was introduced AFTER launch.
Given that Battleships were only in Beta for about a week before launch and during that time some obscenely small number of people managed to mine enough to buy them without resorting to the final day BS fest I would suspect that yes some of the launch ships got rushed out as CCP by this point had missed every launch date estimate they had given their then publisher.
Some ships are clearly broken and do actually have some UV Mapping problems that would only take an afternoon to sort out. I'd like it if CCP just decided to fix these in one patch because tbh it isn't alot of work and if you sort out the small problems suddenly the pile of big problems doesn't seem quite as big.
Housekeeping if you will. I discovered this truth in my work after I kept blowing off smaller bugs to fix the big ones. I was under way more stress because my ToDo list was huge and I never ever got to the bottom of it. Spend 1 day a week sorting out the half hour fixes and you should half your todo list and be able to concentrate on the big problems better.
Some ships defy all reasonable logic. Like the Griffin. Sideways thrusters that clearly serve no purpose and above all look really dumb. I actually liked the ship in the hanger but when I took it outside the first time I was laughing so hard I fell off my chair.
The same goes for the Slasher. Recent Minmattar ships like the Cyclone or Nag are lovely to look at and imo are more minmattar than the older frigates and cruisers. The slasher only has to hit 1 piece of space debris and it would just fly apart. Fortunately with all the hole sin it the odds of that happening are reduced.
All the Amarr Frigs are brilliant. They have the best looking selection of Frigates of all the races. Although fix the floating wingtips of the Punisher please.
The Megathron is too big for its texture and the guns were clearly added as an afterthought. The Gun placement comment goes for most of the Turret BS except the Tempest which actually has them making sense all lined up like that.
The Raven is just... well there's Asymetrical and then there's just random. The Raven is the later.
The Scorpion looks unfinished and is another ship that would benefit alot from a better texture even if it doesn't get a geometry overhaul.
Minmattar BS I quite like in theory. The Phoon needs it's insides looking at and if you're gonna make a space Sailboat at least make it graceful and slightly smoother than the Tempest. Still great concepts though.
The Bantam... just no. Cargo/mining ship and it should actually look like it's a cargo/mining ship. Which it doesn't.
All the Caldari cruisers need some love. I like the concept behind the caracal if not the implementation. Same for the Blackbird. There are some very good ideas in there but the execution ruins them. I kinda like the Osprey and I think that is mostly down to the texture which is more matte black than gunmetal grey.
I quite like the Gallente Cruisers and the Amarr cruisers are good. The Augoror is a great concept but needs a higher res texture and some love on it's belly.
The Iteron and Badger range of Industrials are the most obvious haulers in game (in that they look how you expect a hauler to look). The Bestower is heavily outclassed by the newer sigil in looks.
The Hoarder needs a better texture, with some more red in it to break up it's outline a bit.
Overall I think I can get behind the concept for all the ships fully. But the older ships were clearly rushed out for launch while the newer ones have had more time and attention to detail. I think you can change the geometry of the ships without actually changing their appearance. Just rebuild them based on the same concept and overall profile and I think you'll get what most people imagine the ships to really look like.
Oh and try to make sure every part of a ship has a justifiable purpose or else they do truly look random which is bad.

Current ship textures and models could use a serious upgrade. The game is 3 year old and new graphics cards can process complex models very efficiently. I know there are still lots of users out there, including myself, who don't have the latest hardware on the market, and for that reason I think we should get the option to download a visual update to the game, if we want to, and if we don't, stick to the old models. -----------------------

Because black ships are incredibly cool! Hey, would you rather every faction ship be like the T2 Gallente ships made by Roden shipsyards? They're all PINK!
No, I didn't think so.
Originally by: MellaRinn Actually, Domi from right begind looks like a classic american car of 1960s-70s - the boot "wings" with lights (exhaust points in domi) - paint it pink for added Cadillac-ness 
Yeah, I always thought of that whenever I saw it from behind. But seriously, don't make it pink, either make it WHITE, which is like a Texas Cadillac, or make it two-tone red and white, which is the classic Cadillac paint scheme.
Originally by: Kastiotic I love the ship designs in EVE because not all of them are completely symmetrical.

I like the look of the tempest, but only from certain angles (which, thankfully, are where most of the screenshots are taken). However, from pretty much any other angle, the ship looks like it could fall apart before it even turns its engines on; the 'upper' part of the ship (with the huge engine) is connected to the 'lower' part (with another engine) by a little piece of metal about | <-that big. A good view of the ship (camera to the forward, left, looking back) hides this little thing and makes it look almost passable; but in actual practice, the ship looks incredibly off center. Please fix.  ------------------------------------ Humbug ! |

Only a few ships I would like changed: Bellicose-Way too elongated Moa- Alittle too boxy, but not that bad Inquisitor- Kinda like a mutant tormentor Thorax- Too vibrator-ey Blackbird- Make it 'connect' more, too big spaces between engines, would look really pimpz0r if it was one connected curved plane Tempest- Add more Bulk, still cool though
Everything else is tight, would like to especially comment a good job on the cyclone, cormorant, raven, osprey, stabber, scythe, heron, griffen, slasher, rifter, cyclone, prophecy, mammoth, badgers I and II, celestis, and the vexor. Just my opinions, but still artwork is damn good.

Yes! The Serpentis version actually looks alright. I was flying my Exeq in a bright green system earlier and it could not have looked more like a flying booger.
I'm a recent convert to the ugly beauty of Minmatar ships. It's the red engine trails with brown ship that does it for me I think. Caldari are still my least favourite ships with a few exceptions. |

I think the best looking frigate is the Rifter. Defintely inspired by the x-wing fighters from Star Wars, and you gotta love the way it just floats in your hangar. I don't mind the Merlin, and the Amarr frigs are very nice looking.
I absolutely love the Catalyst, and the Coercer is pretty sweet looking too.
The best faction frigate is the Daredevil, with a nice combination of raw Minmatar design and smooth Gallente finish.
As for the Battleships, the Apoc is butt ugly. I actually kinda like the Raven weirdly enough; it kinda grew on me. The Tempest is ugly, but appealing somehow. The Mega looks like a dustbuster, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Those things are awesome!

I find most ships are quite appealing. That is, amarr and gallente look great, minie's don't look bad (the later designs are sometimes ******* amazing - see naglfar), but the caldari just look... primitive. Moreso then the minmatar tbh.
Sexiest ship of them all is the thron though. Looks mean, sleek, and powerful at the same time.
I hope they continue on the bird-design for the amarr tier 2 bc's. Something like a SG:A wraith dart would be utterly cool.

Huginn: Dark skin with yellow large lights is okay. Flapping winglets at the chin are huh. It has blinking green lights all over. It is no stinking Caldari ship! If it had the green and red lights for port and starport marking, I could understand it.
Oh, the large yellow lights actually got blinking green parts too The engine exhaust goes from yellow over green to blue - looks cute.
But those flapping winglets at the cheeks look like someone could not find a cool thing to do with the Bellicose - again.
Minmatar ships: The railguns are rectangular. Their tips aren't finished yet. Their shielding/magnets are half done. Please replace the antenna skins with actual objects. The Apoc would gain a lot from that step too. Most Minmatar ships could use a higher quality skin too. Especially the industrials and bs would gain a lot. The T2 versions show that the ability and skill are available!
Arbitrator and other Amarr ships: Some of the attached plates have no 'inside' skin.
Machariel: What the hell is the engine on the top left good for? It's exhaust would burn a hole into the ship!
All ships with missile bays: Please make the missiles launch from the model's missile bays, not some random place. --*=*=*-- Megadon CCP wanted a well known artist and celebrity to test the new font so it's approval would be well known. They got Ray |

The Caldari Cruisers need a total revamp IMO. The best cruiser from all the races is the Thorax. Why cant Caldari have a sleek missile boat, instead of the horrific mess of a Caracal.
The Ferox is fine, i do like it alot. the Cormorant too. The rest of them, bar the frigs, need a total overhaul.
BS' in general need editing... Their horrible, bar the Megathron, Domi and Geddon.

Apoc textures suck. They couldn't be bothered to finish the underside so they said 'screw it, lets just stick a gradient there'
While I'm here, why capitalise "MOA"? Or even M.O.A. Its called a Moa. Like the bird. It isnt an acronym or abbreviation.

Whats with the hatered to the caracal, I have to admit at first I did not like the design but it goes on you very fast.
I have to admit liking most of the ship designs in eve, I love the fact they don't look like any other ships I've seen. and they have not gone for the typical symetrical design.

Okay I've only been playing about 2 months and fly Amarr ships but from what I've seen and flown...
Frigates:- Inquisitor: Pretty basic looking, nothing needed. - Executioner: Sleek looking combat frig nothing needed. - crucifier: Kinda cool looking, can't think of anything it needs. - Tormentor: Read Inquisitor above - Punisher: Badass needs no changes, is a work of art. - Raven: looks awesome, on par with the punisher.
Destroyers: - Coercer: Love this ship looks mean as hell - Catalyst: Something about this destroyer just looks cool, don't know what it is but I like it.
Cruisers: - Oman: goodlooking ship but I think it needs wings like the punisher frig, then it would be smokin - Mauler: this ship got hit with the WTF!? ugly stick from hell, decomission this boat and build a new one. - Augoror: Ok I agree with an earlier post about this ship not finshed being built yet, but still an ugly ship, maybe add some bling or something, fuzzy dice? i don't know.
Battlecruisers: - Prophecy: Make the rear wingage looking section of the fusealage look more wingy and this ship would be tight.
Battleships: for the most part they all look cool, except for the Domi, what was CCP thinking lol.
Carriers: look awesome.

Right, everyone has different opinions so the ships should stay the same. Except Moa and Apocalypse coz they are butt-ugly.
Don't touch the Domi! It's the best looking ship in eve, and if you think the Megathron looks good, well, consider it's the size of five Titanics one after another and it still looks like a toaster*.
Actually, the update in ship design I would like is related to detail. Look at the newer hulls, like the destroyers - they have lots and lots of detail, detail that just isn't there on the older hulls. A Maller (which I kind of like) is just a simple shape with some simple textures. They should really get upgraded, maybe keep the basic shape but increase the level of detail. I mean, battleships do not look big exactly because they are plain shape with no detail and there's nothing to see there to understand how big they are. BCs, that are newer, are much better in that respect.
So really, a ship look upgrade would be great - do not _modify_ them, just increase the level of detail and put nicer textures and make them look more real. Well, except Moa and Apocalypse (and Thorax btw) those please do modify.
* which, some might argue, it also is, toasting anything that comes close, but that's not the point.

What the HELL are you talking about? The ships never have any guns built into them...if you think you see railguns built into these Minmatar ships, you're clearly confusing them with something...besides, railgun technology is CALDARI, not Minmatar.

The Caldari Cruisers need a total revamp IMO. The best cruiser from all the races is the Thorax. Why cant Caldari have a sleek missile boat, instead of the horrific mess of a Caracal.
I think the caracal is the best looking cruiser, and sure as hell beats an asymetric ship that looks like a giant flying dill-do / dill-don't But then again, i was flying a caracal for a long time... but i really wouldent want to stare at the thorax for that long...

Like the Tempest and Typhoon, the Tempest needs to be held together with a bigger metal rod, and the phoon needs to be redone looks like a slug.

Phoon and Pest both have a huge railgun attached. Those long rectangular spikes on the right side with some kind of wire shielding around them.
They both come with open drone bays and missile bays too.
Have you built a railgun in physic courses at school or university? A rectangular guiding rail for the projectile just hurts when it comes to electro-magnetic fields. And those attachements certainly aren't classic projectile guns.
Ever played Battletech? Minmatar ships seem to be kinda close to those beauties. The later attached miniature guns for the fitted weapons just don't compare to the huge versions built into the ship. --*=*=*-- Megadon CCP wanted a well known artist and celebrity to test the new font so it's approval would be well known.

I KNOW what a railgun is, but I'm telling you that EVE ships don't have built-in guns. The only guns they have are the ones we put on them. And railguns wouldn't make sense anyway because Minmatars DON'T USE RAILGUNS. Just trust me on this one, okay? -------------------------------------[04:04:04] Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk

I agree that some of the ships are but ugly, but the point is that they are supposed to look alien and/or futuristic, and CCP did show some of their work on giving the old ships a makeover at the fanfest. But they seem to focus more on how to improve their servers now.
They did promise better graphics soonish, like in Kali... and showing thrustjets when turning. Wow! that was so cool! |

Let's take a loog at the Gallente ships.
We've got three basic kinds of designs, the blob, the sleek, and the mix.
Sleek ships. Design: Slightly aerodynamic, tendency towards symmetry, and built horizontally. Ships: Navitas, Thorax, Catalyst, Megathron, Nyx, and Thanatos. Changes: None needed, they are all pretty decent.
Blob ships. Design: About as aerodynamic as a fridge from the sixties, largely very symmetrical, and tend to be built vertically. Ships: Velator, Maulus, Tristan, Vexor, Brutix, Dominix, Moros, and Erebus. Changes: While the Velator is dog-ugly, there needs be a reason to bugger out of that ship asap. The other ships are pretty decent with the exception of the Dominix. What the Dominix needs first and foremost is a skin change, preferably to the same colour theme as the Brutix. Other minor tweaks would be to loose the giant forehead which prevents the Dominix' length to show.
The Mixed ships. Design: As aerodynamic as an cathedral organ, seldom very symmetric, and tend to be nearly equal horizontally and vertically. Ships: Imicus, Incursus, Exequrour, and Celestis Changes: All of these ships need to be redone. The Incursus is the least offender, but at the very least it's skin needs a change. Poo-brown isn't Gallente colours, it's Minmatar colours.

Originally by: Tachy Minmatar ships: The railguns are rectangular. Their tips aren't finished yet. Their shielding/magnets are half done.
What the HELL are you talking about? The ships never have any guns built into them...if you think you see railguns built into these Minmatar ships, you're clearly confusing them with something...besides, railgun technology is CALDARI, not Minmatar.

I hate symmetrical ships. Origional designs that should be flying round in circles = win. To that extent:
Kessie, Bantam, Heron, Griffin, Moa, Blackbird, Osprey, Scorp and Raven are the best looking ships in any game. ____________________

I think that every ship released before EXODUS should be re skinnned. I mean, some of the ships are just plain horrible up close.
Pet hates which i fly: Raven. Uuurgh Scorpion. Just say no, kids. Badger series. o.m.g.
Faction ships, whose paint jobs changes past 8km. Plus, why do pirate faction ships have STATE insignia on them? Eg Caldari state markings on guristas ships? (I want an ebil bunny logo on mine)
Tempest and phoon are just sickening up close - the blurry fizz begins all over them, when you take a close look.
More as i get offended. Ciao for now.

or just lop the super streched fart cannon exhaust off, it it werent for that the ship would have a little better cool factor but with them it looks like you could grab it by the rear thruster/exhaust and beat somebody over the head with it.

The Augoror needs a re-texture. The model is cool...just not the textures.
Also, the Crucifier is still missing its one nose polygon face from beta.
Apoc needs a new model...but the Geddon is cool.

Even though I have to agree on some ships being ugly I can't see CCP actually redesigning them. It would break a lot of immersion for me to see some completely new model of the Blackbird with the same old description. However textures can be redone on some of those ships. Nothing radical just spiff them up a little.
A lot of people hate the Raven? I think that ship and the Scorp for that matter are great! I guess the different opinions are what makes the world go 'round.
My "that could of been done different" ships are: Moa Maller Celestis Dominix Typhoon Navitas Imicus Inquistitor Tormentor
However, I really appreciate what CCP tried to do. They did not use the normal conventions of other Space games. They created thier own universe with their own designs. I like some of the ships that are not symetrical. In some ships I think it paid off. By the way Caldari have the best looking frigates in the game, imho.

I'd like to see the Devs add another engine to the stabber and Vagabound so that they would have more symmetry. The caldari battleships could use a similar makeover with their "wings".

That is indeed a good point; many ships, not just Caldari ones, need their skins redone. Pirate faction vessels could also stand to lose national logos in favour of their own pirate logos. The Caldari ship models themselves are perfectly fine as is though.

Besides some exceptions, the more symmetrical a ship is the better it looks. I cringe every time I look at one of those Caldari ships, especially those poor, poor battleships.

The Ferox.
Great looking ship, but the fact that is has 2 engians on one side and 3 on the other has always annoyed the hell out of me.

I also think some ships just need a proper skin to look cool. Take the Thorax for example. It is sleek, it looks powerful and has a nice cruisery feeling to it. But if you zoom in on the err.. tip of it, you'll see that the windows up front are just messed up. The rest of it is ok. It just that last bit, that wasn't executed properly.
I also think the omen has way more potential. It's multiple layers of armor look like they don't fit and the skins on the undersides of its engines are just offending. Mutant space turtles 4TW!......
