Arty types, listen up. If you’ve got some smashing concept art skills, EVE Online developers CCP want to hear from you.

In conjunction with DeviantArt, the EVE Online Create A Starship Contest has just kicked off – giving visual creatives the opportunity to, well, create a starship to feature in the MMO.
What you create is up to you – it might be a thing of beauty, it might be a terrifying structure – but you need to put (virtual) pen to (virtual) paper and get sketching. The developers need all six orthogonal views for your design to qualify: that is, left, right, front, back, top and bottom – all of them in colour-less line drawings. If you’d like to include a seventh view – a fully rendered, textured creation – you’re more than welcome.
Want some inspiration?
