I can think of at least two -- no, three -- phallic ships in EVE.

Wait, four.

Yeah. At least. And I'm tame.

I am kinda worried about the judges tho, it's DA not CCP.  Does DA understand how the EVE ships roll? /o\

And the sheer number of people not listening to rules, not surprising but hilarious.  Due to the ship size restriction I can't submit the design I was thinking of doing so I'll have to think of something else. :(

well I know what I'm voting for

Looks like a Mach with extra bobbles to me.  :s

Yeah, looks like someone grabbed the Angel BS model and just added more bits to it.  I saw a few good entries done by the EVE-Online DA group guys, I envy their skillz.

Wait, someone on DA took a piece of existing artwork, modified it in a minor way, and reposted it?

UNHEARD OF! :O

An important reminder for Placid RPers

One day they woke me up
So I could live forever
It's such a shame the same

If people would kindly stop thinking with their dicks, this kind of crap would not have to ruin my god damn fun.

You don't see me complaining about all your nice ships, do you? That's right.

Stop throwing crap at my favorite cruiser.

NO WAY!

Og yes, wait, yeah. Happens all the time  :bash:

On a side-note, the Angel ships are about the most ugly ships i know in-game. Anyone who disses the Rax' as a phallic symbol need to have a look at th Mackhariel and stuff it.

The problem with 'phallic' symbols I think has more to do with people thinking with thier organs and not the designers intentionally messing up - when I first saw the Rax ingame I though 'now that's a cruiser' based on design and form, even the placement of the guns. Then some asshole had to go tell me his worthless oppinion.

PS: The Phobos is RED. Not pink.

I'd draw a new Federation cruiser or two if I had any drawing skills whatsoever, and a decent program for it.

And a couple Amarr ones.

In case anyone was wondering, the "special gift from CCP" for submitting a valid entry was/is a 30-day activation code for converting a trial or starting a new account.  Contest is still open for another three days though, so get your entries in if you haven't already.

I'm rather annoyed - I had two designs (one actual entry for the contest, and one I just did for fun and amusement) but my Printer/Scanner/Fax unit decided to present me with an unfixable error around two weeks ago... hence, I'm fairly sure I'm going to miss the entry date. Fah.

Oh well... will be throwing the designs up on photobucket for other interested parties.

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.

I tend to draw better stuff when I procrastinate.  So I start my ship designs now. :D

Rough idea:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/izumizagari/shiptest1.png

Cleaned up small spikes
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/izumizagari/shiptest2-1.png

Decided that bigger spikes are better (starting on other views)

Moar update:

Will update as I go~

I really dunno if I can beat these guys. I never really tried drawing spaceships before. ._.

Neither is anyone else.

I would have loved for this to get in, but no this did.
