What happened to all the ship painting threads.
Its almost like no-one cares anymore.
I prepared some images earlier in the hope of rebooting interest:

of course ppl still care. Why discuss when they are obviously working on it? The new ship skins for gal/cal are specifically designed for being customizable. |

I'm sure the dev's understand that adding further degrees of ship customization, even if it's cosmetic, would be well received. Yet there are of course the masses of players who would rather have CCP devote that time towards more game-mechanical projects. I say, patience. It's bound to happen one of these days.
Though it doesn't make much sense for every single ship of the same class/manufacturer to be one scheme. Imagine seeing that in real life with cars. |

The last time CCP talked about that, they were going to spawn scorpions of the air and they had zero clue why this is a bad thing.
For the trouble of making them having to actually f***ing make something work without magically spawning ships, they'll make all logos/ship skins cost 3501 Aurum. |

I think for CCP to adequately add ship paintjobs (because I refuse to have a furry-thron) would be fairly well accepted and implemented well with enough care. After all most Gallente ships and many Caldari ships have plenty of bare surface ready for some paint.
Ideas:
- I'd put in two to three paintable areas on each ship, with each allowing one paint colour, which would allow us to have 2 or 3 paint mix designs.
- Paint should be relatively easy to get, and cheap enough for most colours. Of course, entire new economies could spring up for rarer colours (inb4 jet black everything), but they should be relatively easy to replace as they do nothing majorly important for ships other than bling.
- Limited paint mixing should be allowed. Of course, can't implement colours that just look crap on most all ship surfaces.
- Can't fool a person into thinking your Red Incursus is an Enyo. That's just not fair. Instead, Faction ships and T2 ships should keep their unique colour skins, and not be able to be ripped off. They're interesting already, shouldn't take that away.

Good points, sir! However regarding T2 ships, I seriously think they deserve their own hull models. Feels a bit cheap just to reuse the same model.
They should be based on the same chassis, but have distinct external features in addition to different colour scheme. |

I've often thought CCP should impliment skins for the ships, give something like 6 different paint schemes per faction (we already have a bunch out there if you look at T2 and navy ships) That we haven't seen yet and allow the paint jobs to be done through the fitting screen costing something like 1 mil for frigs, 2-3 for cruisers and maybe 5ish for battleships.. even a blanket 1 mil charge would be fine as long as it's an isk sink.
You could also do something like Pyro said in letting you paint 2-4 various areas on your ship with a different skin or color. It can't have to many options or you'll see color splattered ships for the sake of causing lag like people did in APB (stacking layers apon layers of color) But I still feel if it's done it should be a purely npc charged mechanic.
PS - also if CCP did skins they could finally put out some Minmatar ships that don't look like rust. IE current age Tempests and what have you that look more along the lines of the Maelstrom. |

Lag should not be a problem if the "paintjob" is a simple overlay. Lots of games have done this without incident. |

already encountered the chribba drake a few days ago when an alliance-mate linked the picture claiming customizable ship skins would be released for sure in the summer expansion.
Quote:me: "But look at the url: http://dl.eve-files.com/media/corp/Tamber/drakechribbaissue%5B1%5D.jpg ..." him: "dude, it's a screenshot. It's from some internal test server. We're going to be able to select the colors for the camouflage scheme (I even saw a pink Thorax in one screenshot!). We really should work out some official color-scheme for all ships of our alliance..." me:

I don't know if two pixels in the distance count as "in view". |

Customizable brackets would be cool. FC has set friendly logistics to sexy nurse icons. |

I approve of this "distracting FCs" business. Gives those of us not into sexy nurses an edge. |

The one with fur is the best.
They should implement that for every ship.
