Some of the Amarr ships look very dated and ugly. Seeing the great work that has been done to ships such as the maller, here are my picks for renovation
Omen and it's variants such as the Zealot -More renovated, weight-balanced, and symmetrical look, with inspiration from the confessor. Not in shape, but sophistication.
The harbinger -This ship looks like it was meant to be a fighter, with the wings etc. It is very thin, and the centralized engines in the back look disproportional to the front. It doesn't look like a battle-cruiser.
The tormentor -This one looks very dated.
Armageddon -Renovations similar to those done to the Raven and Scorpion. The ship is iconic, it just needs some visual love.
Abaddon -Renovations in the same light as above.
Perhaps also the executioner. Less round, primitive shapes, more of the detail that the maller or moa has recieved.

Get your grabby paws off my amarr hulls. And making every ship in the game symmetrical is boring. Also confessor is fugly.

Omen doesn't bother me but I would imagine they will eventually balance it as they seem to be against asymmetry these days and a lot of players hate it. Harbinger needs to be complete redone.
I kind of like the Tormentor but I also wouldn't mind if they made some changes. Arbitrator needs a total revamp. I agree with your other comments. Some of the iconic ships (Prophecy, Armageddon, Abaddon) need to basically stay the same but need a graphical clear up.
Though issues with ship detail may be fixed a bit with the V++ update whenever that is. |

geddon is lovely, the only thing I can see that might need a touch up is the bottom middle bit, that looks delicate and out of place, and just a bit off. beef up the hull's mid section a bit.
Other hulls I mostly like, abaddon might need a little polish pass as the gold effect just seems a bit off on it, but w/e

I think you guys missed what Yoreh was saying. I believe he meant the new Apoc is just fine. If you want to talk updating, lets go back to the old Apoc, then we can talk.

The amarr navy is considered high tech because of the lasers, but by lore it is an aging navy as it is a nation that got complacent with its forces since only 2 things have every bested them in the military
1. being the Jove when the amarr rose up against them. 2. they matari fleets of the Thukker Tribe until the Empress decimated an entire fleet with 1 shot from her super weapon.

Now that the geddon is a drone boat, it coudl get a bit fatter. I cannot see where it stores all those drones.
Altough at end I still think the mistake was to make the geddon a drone boat (should have been the abaddon on my eyes)

A weapon they do not posses anymore, while the thukkers still have that nasty tech of naglfars that can jump into cyno jammed systems, including yulai (that makes them a hellish powerful force)

I agree. When they updated guns they flipped the color scheme of the lights around between T1 and T2 lasers. It's kind of annoying, as the other weapons were left the same. |

i really don't understand this "my spaceship must be symmetrical" thing, amarr ships are some of the best looking ships atm they don't really need a redesign especially if it`s for the worse like they did on the apoc. if you follow the logic on a armor tanking ship you want less complicated bits (confessor) and stuff on the outside because they just gonna get blowed up on the first hit, sturdy plates (geddon, prophecy, punisher, etc) make much more sense. |

Apoc was vastly improved and its only issue is its just too large. Should be scaled 10 percent down. New skins are badly needed for many ships. Amarr ships just being some. |

Whats wrong with these ships? I loved all the old ships. Incursus is take it or leave it, but Exequror and tristan were amazing in their old models. So was Moa. I loved the old maller, and if you will notice, the confessor shares similarities to all these new ship models being crapped out by CCP: they have these long spindly pylon things sticking out and paddles, and/or they look like frisbees (blackbird, orthrus).
The old ship designs all had racially based architecture, from smooth and streamlined (amarr) , to lumpy/curvy and asymmetrical (gallente), to blocky and utilitarian (caldari), and finally spindly, pylons, narrow yet rectangular (minmatar).
They've started flushing all the uniqueness of ship designs into some homogenized half-assed copypasta models. Maybe they're not paying their art department enough. Maybe they fired the old team. Maybe a higher up is pushing for bad ship models.
Do those models look good? Sure. Do they take away from the flavor of EvE? Definitely. They look like free domain spaceship artwork you can find anywhere on the web instead of being the old models that were definitely inspired designs.

Simple minds like simple designs.
At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.

Still looking  Camo thing never bugged me as it seemed more like organizational recognition rather than trying to be functional. For instance green camo is a Fed Navy thing, not a hiding in space thing. |

To me, a lot of ships are ugly, few are nice, many grow on you.
I think all ships should be left the way they are. They are creative and each have their own looks to each their owners. If you don't like how a ship looks, deal with it or just don't fly it so you don't have to look at it. |

...Simple minds like simple designs. Asymmetry is not simple. Exequeror - Apparently wings jutting off in random directions was a clever and sophisticated design.
Tristan - Didn't even change much, became no more symmetrical than it was
Moa - Now you are just being silly. It didn't even fit the Caldari motif of utilitarian design. Limp neck and weak wings connecting important looking parts of the ship aren't typically know for their enhancement to function.
Also the racial distinction is still extremely strong IMHO. Amarr has ornate plated armor in a way no other race has. Caldari actually looks more utilitarian rather than simply not caring about exterior design. Gallente is just old Gallente cleaned up abit for the most part, though I'm on the fence about some of the details on the Exequror. If anything Minmatar has changed the most with ships like the Stabber departing from the look of having the minimal viable construction holding it together, so I suppose we can grant that.

Why is that a bad thing? Stick out because you had good ideas and the game succeeded to this day based on those ideas. Why flush em to "look like everyone else"?
Also, the tristan lost its elegance and became fugly with those side bulges that were added to it, and the loss of the smaller side wing.
