Ship Skins/ Paintjobs - How it could be done

I know I'm going to get flak for this, but compare for a moment, without the usual EvE hate, between how this has been implemented, communicated and even woven into the game with its own definitions and reasons. I so want Frontier to put as much effort into HOW they implement an idea, HOW they communicate the idea and HOW they put an Elite spin on it. I'm happy to pay for a paint job and I have three already but just the attention to detail from CCP rather than the "here's a pirate paint job" from Frontier shows care to the player base.

Again, others have pointed this out many times before but there's no reason for Frontier to stumble along the same path when they can avoid the pitfalls others fell into first.

"Flame on" as Johnny Storm would say.

I wish they would put in a couple super simple ones that you could buy or better yet earn with the factions that didn't cost actual money. Im all for some premium ones that you can buy but it would be nice to have the option.
 
Decals

How or where do you find your early purchase decal? I didn't do the Kick starter as I didn't here about it. But I did purchase the game in early beta right after the kick starter. I believe I read something about this at one point.

Cheers

Decals are in place now.

You will find them in the Livery tab of the ship outfitting screen when docked at a station that has an outfitters.
 
Kickstarter is the ringed planet.
Kickstarter (founder level) is the Pilot Federation logo
Mercenary Pack is the skull.

There isn't another one, you get the skull as part of the "beta backers all get the mercenary pack" deal.
 
Paint Job.

Hey chaps I'm almost there with my asp money after forcing myself to trade and have bitten the bullet to sell my Union Flag Viper "Pomp and Circumstance" to get some more cash.

Before I do though I'm concerned what happens to her livery... Can I get it back on another viper once I'm up and running again?

You must have played EVE.

You can put the paints you buy on as many Vipers as you want.
 
I would love for new decals and things. A gigantic "credit" symbol (whatever the equivalent to the $ or € is) on the side of my ship would be excellent.
 
Still waiting for my Adder paintjobs...

Oh, and how about some different schwag on the store, like maybe some coffee mugs or something like that? I definitely could use an elite coffee mug or 2. :)
 
Well, they were in the shop for a long time, someone posted a long thread about "you promised they were limited <stamps foot>" then suddenly, without warning or notification, they were gone. They may, or may not, return.

Note that the Chrome Cobra skin is now a "limited edition" and will go away on the 27th Feb.

Thanks Skip. I wasn't aware it was limited otherwise I would have bought them then.
Now I have to consider the chrome...
