EVE Online's Scorpion ship model will be getting a graphical update with the launch of the Tyrannis expansion this summer. In a new devblog, CCP Salvo talks about the design plans and provides screenshots for the new Scorpion model that will give the ship a sharper and more aggressive look.

What worked before, didn't really work anymore, so the art director felt that he'd want to see the ship redesigned, in the new style for Caldari introduced by the Tech 3 ships during Apocrypha. He also felt that the current design lacked the feeling of weight that a battleship needed, that it felt rather flimsy. So the goal was to make a beefier, more aggressive-looking Scorpion.
