So this is one of a couple of images we've been working on with the awesome artist Will Burns, who's worked with us previously on many projects.
We're currently exploring different ideas to show off EVE's ships and give more intricate detail about them, such as putting together books based on images like this. Do you guys like it, and would you like to see more?
Discuss!

I'd definitely like to see more! It reminds me of the old Star Wars and Star Trek technical manuals which had the little cutaway pictures like that.
Awesome work!

YES and YES.

All of my yes as well. Great idea, and can't wait to see cross-sections of larger ships too :D |

Books are nice but my house might fall down if I buy any more. Digital access would be awesome, even if it's something you sell. Or posters, the last batch were stunning, but some might like techie style images like this with all the bits labelled.

The art is excellent; the flavor text may even surpass it, IMO. If these are to be books, I'm in agreement that a digital version would be nice to see (eventually) on offer. |

I would like the ability to toggle off selected elements of the UI so I can actually see the beauty of EvEs ships.
EvE looks amazing but its hidden behind a bloated UI. You have the beta program.. why not give us a minimal UI option ?
It occurred to me while I was looking at the EvE website.. You have 0 screenshots of the game, in fact the only gameplay shots you have is the ''This is EvE'' video which is shown with the UI off.
You want new player retention... fix the UI.
Then new players can actually see the beauty of EVE and not spreadsheets and red xs. And they might not leave after 1 week.
Eve should be playable with just the overview and a nice picture in picture showing what you are firing at. Everything else should be toggle able..

This is a capsuleer version of a Gallente frigate, which do not need much crew anyway because of the extensive use of drones. It makes perfect sense for a capsuleer frigate, which is not much bigger than a modern-day airliner, to have no crew besides the pilot. |

That is awesome! I'm curious that it seems the capsuleer can decant, but there doesn't seem to be much or any walkable-areas inside.
Crew of One on the statistics refers to the capsuleer? Or is there one baseliner too?
And what about the comet's two drones?
Really though, I love these. More please!

I'm thinking the Comet's drones would be externally mounted. Seems a pretty tight configuration in there. |

Awesome artwork! 
But... (there's always a but...)
I am divided about adding fantasy stuff to EVE. Already was with the first Art of New Eden book.
Why draw things that are not ingame? Yes it would be cool if our ships had a fusion reactor and a magnetometric sensor suite and whatever... but they don't.
They are three life bars and a few values in a table. They are regularly and magically updated in all of New Eden by just writing different amounts in the table.
Can't put my finger on why I feel it, but it doesn't seems right to make fantasy drawings on what they are not... 
CCP Seagull: "EVE should be a universe where the infrastructure you build and fight over is as player driven and dynamic as the EVE market is now".
62% of players: "We're not interested. May we have Plan B, please?"
CCP Seagull: "What Plan B?"

It is better to fix it "drifter".
And the new content does not smell.
And do not forget to change your mind it the new Emperor.
First steps.
Emancipation of the slaves "to show that I was good"
The second action.
We are proud to say that he would continue the policies of Heideran VII. "that would be even more love it"
Make it soft and fluffy.

Cool imagery. But why are Gallente ships using Caldari sensor naming schemes? BZ-12 follows the Caldari ECM module naming scheme. https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Ship_Equipment:Electronic_Warfare:Electronic_Counter_Measures:Gravimetric_Jammers

Yes, I would like to see more. Much more. More understanding of how tge ship is engineered, constructed, interacted with by the humans. A bridge or cockpit is far more captuvating than a pod but ill take it as the lore is. More details please. What is a typical thukker caravan like? How many ships, how do they interact? Paint, insignia, organizations (is a rebel patrol 3 ships or 20), modules (what does a wzrp scrambler look like), colonies and stations. Details are fuel for the imagination. |

But the big question for me is... would it explain what all the Raven's pointy blinky bits do? Why are they exist? |

EVE books are seen mainly by die-hard fans; consider a co-production of computer game spaceship art, with other game publishers, in order to get wider distribution and more exposure. |

Not to be negative but there's a typo in the bow turret section...
"A fill 270 degree arc of fire" surely it's meant to be "full".
A case for more AoE in EvE

This artwork is lovely stuff that will help enrich the game.
But please, no crew. Certainly not in anything smaller than a capital ship, and even then crew should only have a minimal presence. The notion of 'ship crew' in Eve has always been a debatable 'feature' that has no in game manifestation (otherwise you would see them in the market). Eve ships are fully automated vessels that tap into a capsuleer's subconscious functions via capsule technology. That's what those holes in the back of a capsuleer's neck are for (as well as skill training). This enables a capsuleer's ship to run an maintain itself (with the help of full automation). This direct link between the capsuleer's trained mind and the ship enables a minimal latency between pilot command and ship response, despite capsuleer ships being so large. This, combined with the lack of a need for any cumbersome life support systems (for crew), defines the superiority of capsuleer vessels over any other and is the primary reason for the rise of the capsuleer.
The ship communicates all this into the capsuleer's brain in the form of spreadsheets. Who'd have thought? |

a capsuleer significantly reduces the number of crew required and increases performance for a spaceship, but ships larger than a frigate do require mundane crew in addition to the capsuleer
https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/New_Eden_crew_guidelines
i'd like to see the internal difference between capsuleer and normal spaceships
e: there's a chronicle somewhere where a person's being hired to join a capsuleer's battleship crew, but i can't find it :(
