Siddy Minmatar Art of War Cruel Intentions	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:07:00 - [31] lets rather have him desing some sort of ancient, indigineus monsters to EVE galaxy that will mollest you with tentacles inside station. Ambulation is coming, you know.
Amira Silvermist The Aegis Militia Aegis Militia	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:37:00 - [32] Originally by: Andrea Griffin See that shaft of light along the throat? That was originally a phallus. ELP decided to try to use the art anyways, but the record companies said no. It was obscene. So, they went back to Giger and said, "Can you fix this for us?" He refused to make any changes at all to his work, even though it would have to get tossed out otherwise. Eventually, ELP had to hire another artist to airbrush the phallus into the shaft of light that exists today. Hiring Giger and afterwards demanding that he should remove anything offensive from hist art is rather stupid to be honest... What did they think he would draw for them? A puppy? ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sharp Feather Gallente Ministry of Natural Resources	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:38:00 - [33] I dont see any ship on that page... just some very disturbing cyborg and chairs...wth. BTW, most of the artist, after creating something totaly original and plausible...dont do it afterward by lack of inspiration.
Bloodlet Eyes Shadows of the Dead R0ADKILL	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:52:00 - [34] The Armageddon looks like the H.R. Giger alien, a great skin and a fantastic ship.
Lady Abaris Shih Yang Tong	Posted - 2008.05.08 19:34:00 - [35] H.R. Giger is without doubt a genius with many of the character "flaws" that genius's often suffer with. He has had a less than straight forward life. Its worth remembering the Alien designs from the film are over 30 years old. They stand the test of time very well and are true landmarks in the history of cinema. As for eve ships I can think of no one better suited to t3 Gallente design! The one project however I would be fearful of would be Giger designing is the mobile phone - who can guess where one would need to stick it for it to work? But you just know it would look out of this world.
Chitah Gallente Garoun Investment Bank	Posted - 2008.05.08 20:04:00 - [36] Originally by: CCP Navigator Pfft... the EVE artists have created some of the best looking ships to ever grace a game. Why would you possibly want anyone else!? Well...looking at the Caldari... the only thing that i can think is: " Every help is needed"
Megan Maynard Minmatar Out of Order	Posted - 2008.05.08 20:08:00 - [37] Originally by: Davich MacGregor Originally by: CCP Navigator Pfft... the EVE artists have created some of the best looking ships to ever grace a game. Why would you possibly want anyone else!? One word: Rupture You bashing my rupture??? Miz Stelth Bomerz iz the ****nit.
SolusLunes Caldari Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:20:00 - [38] Originally by: Chitah Originally by: CCP Navigator Pfft... the EVE artists have created some of the best looking ships to ever grace a game. Why would you possibly want anyone else!? Well...looking at the Caldari... the only thing that i can think is: " Every help is needed" Hey, I like the Caldari designs. Symmetry is for tools.
Dristra Amarr Shadows of the Dead R0ADKILL	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:29:00 - [39] Originally by: 5pinDizzy CCP please don't. I like all your designs, even the new Jovian shuttle. And although the Moa and Osprey are a bit ugly, they're tolerable. No, moa is a shame. Support the introduction of well thought out Amarr solutions! I believe rats should avoid you if you have high standing with them.
Zaqar Pator Tech School	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:30:00 - [40] Always thought the Brutix was quite Gigeresque...
Digital Solaris Perkone	Posted - 2008.05.09 00:33:00 - [41] If CCP went that route, I would rather see CCP hire a artist that sees fields of depths, understands shapes, and most of all, has a creative mind. HR Giger, genius for some he may be, is not. He is completely swallowed up by his own world of fetishistic biomechanical and sexual imagery, and that means that he is ultimately boring in the end since he is unlikely to create anything else. And it is a shame that a great artist like John Barkey recently passed away, because if anyone outside CCP should design ships for them, it should be him. A example of his work.
Danton Marcellus Nebula Rasa Holdings	Posted - 2008.05.09 00:38:00 - [42] Originally by: Sopha Serpentia He ain't cheap and hes also a premadonna (read:nightmare to work with). This. No more upgrade anything, it all went to Mr Alien and his pet sturgeon being groomed with a staff of 20 overseing the birth of his caviar elevensies. Should/would/could have, HAVE you chav!

Hiring Giger and afterwards demanding that he should remove anything offensive from hist art is rather stupid to be honest... What did they think he would draw for them? A puppy? I agree with that, I can see why an artist like Geiger wouldn't be cool with censorship, I really like the album art he did for Celtic Frost's "To Mega Therion", it's suits the music so well, don't know how well it would fit in with the world of eve though
DigitalCommunist Obsidian Core	Posted - 2008.05.09 03:15:00 - [44] I don't like his stuff, even if its an inspiration for a lot of other sci-fi. It might be good to some people the first time they see it, but you wouldn't want the same style everywhere. If you want famous outside talent, they should hire some freakin' composers to write epic scores, cause EVE sound hasn't changed significantly since Beta. My vote goes to Clint Mansell, Phillip Glass, or Klaus Badelt. Any one of those would do good EVE music. _______________________________ http://epicwords.net/
Gorthauran Amarr Throne of Tragedy	Posted - 2008.05.09 07:50:00 - [45] Originally by: Bloodlet Eyes The Armageddon looks like the H.R. Giger alien, a great skin and a fantastic ship. In fact most of the Amarr ships have a bit of Gigers Alien in them...and to the OP, in my opinion Amarr ship designs are very much like something he would create.
Sopha Serpentia Core Dynamics	Posted - 2008.05.09 09:27:00 - [46] Originally by: MorbidPenguin Originally by: Sopha Serpentia He ain't cheap and hes also a premadonna (read:nightmare to work with). It's primadonna, as in the Italian for "first lady," not premadonna as in "before Madonna." Thanks, I'm glad you care enough to correct me <3 wanna make out?
Smilla Snow	Posted - 2008.05.09 09:50:00 - [47] every artist is a primadonna when a business manager tries to make his work better
Segge Bolled Caldari Dirty Sexy Pilots	Posted - 2008.05.09 10:55:00 - [48] Originally by: Abrazzar Rather go with more affordable, more innovative and yet more affordable people like Clint Langley. I'm quite sure he could add more "life" to the Rogue Drones for example. Bull. Have you seen the premium graphics content? The new rogue drones look excellent. The new Rogue Drone Battleships (still based on the delightful Dominix) are especially impressive - aside from the more obvious activity, if you look closely you can even see the large silver-white growths on the front pulse like lung sacs or hearts.
Hel O'Ween	Posted - 2008.05.10 11:47:00 - [49] Originally by: Sopha Serpentia He ain't cheap and hes also a premadonna (read:nightmare to work with). Simple solution: don't try to tell him what to do and what the object should look like. Let him work. Looking through the Alien movies, you can clearly see that every expansion of his original Alien designed for Alien 1, done by others, lack that extra bit of unorthodoxy that made his design outstanding in movie history.
Sunbird Huy Ardent Industrial Hydra Alliance	Posted - 2008.05.10 12:21:00 - [50] Originally by: MorbidPenguin Originally by: Sopha Serpentia He ain't cheap and hes also a premadonna (read:nightmare to work with). It's primadonna, as in the Italian for "first lady," not premadonna as in "before Madonna." HHAAHHAA SOOO TRUE anyway, no need to work with him. pay him to design and deliver, thank you, goodbye... tho they did nice work with the latest ships. One remark tho. Don't the caldari BS's look a bit smaller than other races BS's? shouldn't they at least have more speed or agility de to that fact? And due to their shapes, shouldn't they be bigger, I mean all those shapes...ewww... ?
Great Artista Caldari Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2008.05.10 13:38:00 - [51] Originally by: Digital Solaris And it is a shame that a great artist like John Barkey recently passed away, because if anyone outside CCP should design ships for them, it should be him. A example of his work. That is way better than anything I saw on that Giger website. _______ ◕◡◕

Price Watcher	Posted - 2008.05.10 20:57:00 - [53] I don't like this idea. Has anyone ever seen "Alien"? The whole thing was filmed at such a low light level that half the time you could not see what was going on. That's not dramatic, it's boring. Giger did the designs for "Alien". He can make Eve just as boring. POST WITH YOUR ALT! Fix Suicide Ganking
Grendelsbane	Posted - 2008.05.10 23:37:00 - [54] Edited by: Grendelsbane on 10/05/2008 23:37:47 Originally by: CCP Navigator Pfft... the EVE artists have created some of the best looking ships to ever grace a game. Why would you possibly want anyone else!? They have also created some of the most butt ugly, as well. This is fine - real hardware is often ugly even if it is functionally elegant. But couldn't they be a bit more creative with different manners of ugliness? It's not that the ships aren't modeled and textured beautifully, it's that some of the designs are just not convincing. It's hard to be menaced by a battleship that looks like a giant cyborg spaceturkey. As for Giger, he designed the creature, he didnt direct the movie. You can "blame" the darkness on Ridley Scott; I for one think it was great.

You can "blame" the darkness on Ridley Scott; I for one think it was great. Aye, one of the movies u are still amazed with effects and designs even if it's almost 30 years old. Take a look at some newer movies with OBVIOUS computer generated effects, they are pathetic! And Caldari ships need a lot more make up, they really look pathetic compared to gallente and amarr, hell even minnies look better, or at least intimidating. The Caldari on the other hand look like the birds they were named after, just defected ones...
Jessica Lorelei Minmatar Shiverau FOUNDATI0N	Posted - 2008.05.11 17:48:00 - [57] A big LMAO for all the so called experts and their professional opinions about Giger.
Rana Ash Minmatar Aeon Trinity	Posted - 2008.05.11 18:48:00 - [58] Edited by: Rana Ash on 11/05/2008 18:49:32 If Geiger shall do the ships, i want Royo to help with ambulation ¦on Trinity is recruting, inquire within for details lyret dedreen
Big Fuzz ACCORD Industries Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.05.11 20:38:00 - [59] Originally by: Sopha Serpentia He ain't cheap and hes also a premadonna (read:nightmare to work with). dude it's prima donna. unless you mean he's older than madonna. i wonder how someone who doesn't know that can make ends meat.
