That Merlin or Harpy is dumb. Look at the leading edge of the "wings", it seems that there are tons of tiny little windows along it. Now take a look at the head of the ship and the size of the actual*****pit, there is no way those windows on the wing are to scale. The only acceptable explanation is that they are not windows but honestly what else could they be?
If CCP is going to redoo the ship designs, models, and skins then now is the time for them to at least try and use an ounce of reasonableness. I'd suggest that the skinner try and pretend that they are designing a real space craft, give each piece of it meaning w/o leading to massive inconsistancies.
And what makes you think that that one big window is for just one man?
It might be an immense control room like nasa have.
Also the lights on the side's might not be windows.
The backstory states more than one time that frigates can't take more than 1-3 people, so that's no immense control room. Besides, frigates are only a few meters wide.

oo if thats what the Merlin will look like than I can't wait for the harpy.
That is the Harpy.
Well i'll be damned, it is. I'm loosing my sight heh
It does look like a Hawk to me, not a harpy. (harpies don't have a bluish color) But it's not a hawk either, if you look at the image name you'll see it's named as a Mordus Merlin. Woot, CCP is introducing more faction ships!

who said they where windows?
tbh just little lights, I'd not put ANY windows in a ship if it was down to me! glass FTL!
WTF is the point of lights if you have no windows to use those lights? Secondly why in the hell would you even want lights on a military space ship? The idea is not to be seen... Ontop of that, if you had lights, why would they be layed out in such an inconsistant manner?
So you're another of those realism fans, eh? Lights aren't there to ilumminate anything, they're there because it makes the ship cool. Simple as that. Would you rather have a boring fully metal-made design? Though it may look realistic to you it also gives the idea that the ship is not powered, making it look like a flying wreck.
