And as usual, T'amber is already on the move with his cel-shaded version.

Well CCP is giving a new art direction to each. Gallente as per Talos/Velator, Minmatar as per Tornado/Reaper, Amarr as per Maller/Oracle/Impairor, Caldari as per Scorpion/Raven/Drake/Naga/Ibis.

The new Minmatar design is controversial for being less rustic, while I approve of the new Gallente design for being less space turd looking, and more functional

Yea, I rather like the changes and variety these :different: hulls add to the lineups.  Makes it seem like ship designers in each of the empires are applying lessons learned from the decade of capsuleer warfare in order to try and make better ships.

Man I love T'Amber. CCP should just hire him already, their art bottleneck would vanish in a matter of days. >.>

The Dominix certainly needs to look more functional along the lines of the new Gallente design aesthetic. Such a solid ship, yet so damn ugly.

If the dominix was an attractive hull, I likely would have already trained Gallente.

Do you have any idea how many people over the years I hear say "I love the domi, but dear gods it's ugly..."

Seems nearly anyone that flies it does so for it's function while silently praying it will one day suddenly spontaneously transform into something more nice-looking.

Speaking of Gallente hulls, Please excuse me while I go hunt down the Fed traitor that join the State and designed their new Destroyer hull. If they had given this a gun-metal/sapphire-blue coloring and smoothed some details a bit it might as well have been a Federation Navy vessel. Darn it I *like* the asymmetrical design quirks the Caldari use.

In addition to those other Fed traitors that join the State, no doubt.

I don't think that CCP has a choice in the new direction of the design of the ships.

The old artists have left and the new ones are not competent enough to capture the feel of the old ships.

Simple as that.

[Desiderya]

What a remarkably interesting comment. 

[NISYN Aelisha]

Sweeping statements lacking content abound.  Long story short, I feel that a design concept that seems to polarize the community as much as this, are much more interesting and dynamic than those on which we either all agree, or overlook. 

I like the look and feel it retains the utilitarian look of Caldari ships, whilst updating and showing progress in their design philosophy.

OP edited.

wat is that.

[Morwen Lagann]

Man the harpoons, we're hunting spacewhales!

They better name that thing the Harpoon, srsly.

[Safai]

I actually like it (and the Fallout 2 music.)

It'll look better with missile launchers, but it's like the Hound's daddy.

[BloodBird]

I'm rather  ,  and  about the Minmatar one.

The Gallente and Amarr destroyers better not be as out-outlandish, I still want a mini-Myrm and smaller brother for the Omen.
