Meh they should make the Minnie shuttle the Burst if they think it needs a new model. And then make a new shuttle model.
Not my idea but...switch the Minnie Shuttle with the Slasher model. W00t!

Ships I flown and need some looking:
Bellicose, Stabber, Typhoon, Raven, Scorpion, Moa, Scythe, Osprey, Dominix, Megathron
basicly, lot of ships need a rework since you easily notice which were added later and which were desigend in a hurry.
Ships like Typhoon, Scorpion, Raven, Moa, Ospray lack details and texture works. Some ships like bellicose, stabber and Scythe are just ugly. And some Ships like Megathron and Dominix dont fit in the racial designt.
Especially Gallente got a full redesign on their newer ships, they just dont fit to the other ships anymore.
Dominix and Megathron have no real design counterparts.

I also love my Punisher. There is just one tiny little problem. The wings have a GAP between the wingtips and the wings themselves. Nothing connects these wingtips to the wings that I can see.
The Inquisitor model also has some floating armor plates not connected to the ship. The Arbitrator model has some gaps in its textures that allow you to see right through it in some spots on the main hull, near the front edge of the armor plates that cover the engines.
I like the Dominix shape, I just wish it had a lighter color to it, and some more detailed textures on the rear end. The textures back there seem stretched out. I like that the rear end resembles a '57 Chevy. On my 16:9 monitor, the Dominix looks very nice and streamlined from certain angles.

Heh. No way.
Even some of the ships I hated at first I'm starting to like. The Bellicose for instance is so freaking ugly it's almost cool.
And some of the models are awesome. Rifter of course. But also the Breacher, the Probe, the Tempest, the Thrasher.

Yes, this is exactly what it looks like. It doesn't look like a potato or a whale...it looks like a giant piece of **** that got smooshed up against the side of the toilet bowl, and the person had to clamp down on it to squeeze it out which is why it is all skinny and conically trailed off in the back.
Throw the entire model away. Reskinning it isn't nearly enough.

Make the Raven model bigger, so that it's actually a decent size compared to an apoc, considering it does weigh more, and maybe the gimped wing while your at it.

Please make the Raven more symmetrical, it just looks weird from a lot of angles. The same goes for the scorpion.

The question is not what ships should be "fixed", the question is what ships NOT to "fix".
Minmatar:
Freighter
Carriers
Dread
Titan
Gallente:
Titan
Caldari:
Freighter (Best looking ship in all of EVE, imo)
Carriers
Dread
Titan
Amarr:
Freighter
Carriers
Dread
Titan
Everything else needs a total overhaul.
EDIT: While you're at it, make all stations 100 times bigger so they actually comes close to being realistic.

If the Augoror and Burst and some of the other lesser flown ships were graphically enhanced, would more people fly them? No.
A ship revamp would be awesome, but giving a junk ship a facelift doesn't make it better, just makes it a prettier piece of junk in space.
Oooooh look at the new Augoror <gets into the ship> Oh, it's still an Augoror.

Leave Typhoon alone ! I love the looks of it :)
To me the ship that needs most help is Apoc simply. It looks so incomplete.

The Zealot looks great from the front. Really, really good. Probably better than that.
However from the back it's awful. And when I'm in mine, apart from the times when I swing the ship around to look at the front (often), I'm staring at the rear end of it, and it's got an arse like Roseanne Barr :(
But more importantly there's a flashing blue light just under the armour plating on the front of it, that often shines through when the ship is rotated a bit.
As for other ships, the Maller and Punisher have shiny gold bits on them, they're fine - although the green bits on the Maller aren't too clever.
The executioner is a very nice model (only if it has guns on!)
The armageddon is really nice.
Augoror isn't too great. Arbitrator is a great model too, especially the curse variant.
And another great model for us is the Inquisitor/Purifier.
The cruicifier is a heap of rubbish - but I think that's intentional.
The Apocalypse is sadly lacking, it really could use a bit of shiny metal on it.
But the most important thing is fixing my Zealot. Never mind the Gallente, Matari or Caldari whines. Amarr are the most important!

I wouldn't mind if the tempest lost it's giant square base and looked a bit more like a pirate ship being reflected in water.

Caldari ships need more (not complete, just more) symmetry and more detail overall. The Raven and Scorpion have too many plain flat surfaces. The overall shape of the two battleship are very inspired and original, but both lack detail, symmetry and a little bit of size. Look at the Ferox and Cormorant for inspiration. While you're at it, make the Chimera larger. Merlin and Kestrel hulls are beautiful, leave them alone. Fix the Condor hull, drastically redesign the Griffin with the crazy side jet plumes.
Gallente ships are a mixed bag. Ships like the Brutix, Thorax and Megathron are wonderful. Vexor and Dominix are very nice, but need more detail. Going farther down the chain, almost all of the Gallente frigates look horrible except for the Incursus and Maulus hull.
Minmatar, I don't know where to begin. More detail for one. TBH, I used to hate minmatar, but the look has grown on me. I think all they really need is more detail, and maybe a bit more color.
Amarr have some sweet designs. The shape of the Prophecy from 3/4 view = t3h awesome. Side profile = f4t turkey. Either stretch it out, or make it go on a diet. Punisher hull is awesome, except increase the angle that the wings sweep down at, so that the ship is flatter. Executioner = sex. Leave it. Either that or give the slicer hull to the executioner, and change the slicer. The other 2 horshshoe frigates need a big change, Torment and Inquisitor. Absolutely awful. Anathema hull... awful. If any single race screams for complete symmetry in ship design, it's these guys.

I fly Amarr ships. The models are good, but most of them are flawed. Please repair:
1. Punisher. The end of each wing isn't connected to the hull. Upper front guns aren't connected to the hull. Best seen on artillery.
2. The ECM amarr frig (don't remember the name) A polygon in it's nose is missing. looks werid.
3. Omen. the front right side gun is apart from the hull. The front armor plating doesn't have any texture on it's inner side, and is transparent under certain angles.
4. Arbitrator. The 2 symmetrical polygons missing from the sides of the ship are inside it's glass drone bay.
5. Bestower. No textures on jet exhausts.
Most of amarrian ships have the problem with jet flames coming out not of exhausts, but near (or not near) them. On NPC Catalyst it is awesome )
And guys, if you want to rewrite certain models, please take into account common logic.
1. Ships are usually built of more or less standartised modules. Why on earth would amarrian navy pay for a ship with 4 or 5 different engines (different size and form of exhausts)
a) Oval exhausts is nonsense.
b) a ship should have one or 2 engines, not more. Look at navy ships, combat airplanes. If there are separate warp and maneuver engines, make them look different.
c) Engines should propel a ship forwards. that's why the force must be applied to the center of mass. Besides, an engine is a massive module, and it needs to be well-protected. So no jets on the "outskirts" of a ship.
d) manevuer engines. Show them, they must be there! A ship can neither stop by itself in space, nor turn that fast without them (a big stopping engine, and a handful of turning engines around the hull, turning on when spinning or stopping).
2. The surface of a ship should tend to be as small as possible, approaching spheric form, because of turning overloads and attempt to make armor coating thicker with the same mass. If there are "sticking out" parts of a ship, their purpose must be clear. (sensors, manevuer engines)
3. Again, there must not be any element of a ship model placed there for "looking stylish" only. These are combat ships, not christmas trees with sparkling lights (and hanging rubbish and wide open inner structure). They will look better without it for sure.

For gods sake keep the Slasher, Rifter, Stabber, Rupture, Cyclone and Typhoon the way they are. Best looking ships around imo.

Looks to me like the Min designs are getting to look more like amarr ships without the armour plates (or flat ones where they would be rounded on amarr ships) with a few solar sails strpped on. Kind of makes sense that they would tho being as how amarr ships are built by Matari slaves.
Personally I'd like to see the reworked Crucifier, Augoror, typhoon, Moa (just make it less chunky), Prophecy (same as the moa, just flatten it a bit, so it doen't look like an overweight chicken hawk), dominix and all gally ships to look more organic (the new megathron looks like it has leather skin which is perfect in my view)

They're not solar sails, they're LADAR sensor arrays.

The voice in my head says solar sails, thats 2 against, so there 
Anyway what sort of stupidy would put your sensors on huge pannels that are very thinly connected to your ships hull. No wonder amarr never designed their ships for EW, they just shoot the damn things of the matari ships and so never have to worry about being shot at back. Also kind of explains how they were so easily enslaved

I am sorry, but this is just not true.
They are solar sails so Matari pirates can sail about the galaxy playing with thier peg legs and talking to thier parrots (Matari and parrots have about the same IQ fyi). They are fast ships because everything that makes a people "civilized" has fallen off due to crappy engineering and overuse of duck tape. Think Kevin Costners ship in "WaterWorld". Old crappy, with a port-a-potty strapped to the side that hasn't been emptied in months.
FFS of course Matari are pirates who sail around. They even wear sunglasses to protect thier eyes from the glare off the water. Anyone can see that.
