We have seen you guys release some great paintjobs for ships, but a lot of players (myself included) have often wondered as to how you decide on which paintjobs to work on. Some paintjobs defy conventional logic, such as the FDS and the Type 7 - surely the decision to release this could not have been based on how many people fly these ship.
In the case of other ships you release lots of paintjobs for them while leaving some higher end ships with only the default and black Friday paintjobs. This also puzzles us.
I noticed your newsletters try to let us know what goes on in the universe of Elite, but I think many players would be really interested in also knowing a little about the art team that works on the paintjobs.
Whats on their long term list?
Whats on the short term list (hopefully not a secret)?
Is there some way that the player base can help in speeding along the development of various paint jobs for the ships that lack them? Maybe a kickstarter or pre-order type thing so you are guaranteed a minimum number of sales for specific paintjob pack?
I think a little communication with the player base on the subject of paintjobs would be very welcome.
