EVE Online Ship Sizes

I've only recently started playing EVE Online and found myself being fascinated by those enormous spaceships. Thanks to a great piece of software called TriExporter, I was able to import these models into Maya and decided to render some Amarr ships as "miniatures" ;)
For those not familiar with the metric system:
1 meter equals about 1 yard.
1 km equals about 0.6 miles.
I may not have gotten all the colors right since I'm just beginning to play (and loving it btw) and won't encounter most of these ships until a few months in. Sadly, some of the textures that come with the game are a little low in terms of resolution (especially for the avatar) but I did my best to cover that up... Some of the shaders could use improvement but since this is just a quick set-up, and apart from the occasional flickering, it looks good enough for now.
Software: TriExporter, Photoshop, Maya, After Effects
Music: Arboretum by Max Richter
Models and Textures: CCP Games
Inspired by TakeBackTheWorld (HL2 engine) and arkorum (Crysis engine), thanks!

This is one of the things I love about playing EVE. When I first started playing, I was flying my first ship which is super tiny. I had a friend who was showing me around the game when we ran into a Titan. It was a Gallente Titan, and compared to my ship it was enormous. When I saw it I was like, "Holy fucking shit!" It was great.

Really puts the size of things in perspective. Nice work!

feels very clinical clean which is a good futuristic affect and it presents the ships sizes very well. good vid.

...Knew the Avatar was huge, but this truly puts things into perspective... Incredible.

[@kratosaurion7]

This is a verryyyy well done video, the music and the ambiance the room gives. Perfectly conveys the grandeur of the ships and really puts us back in perspective when you are flying one of those big mofoes.

[@Pilavusa]

this is awesome! The ships size always tickled my fantasy and this is gorgeous work

[@TheNemesis02]

Looks great dude, did a good job with it. really puts it in perspective

[@Doan84]

1:09 I LOVE the design of the Providence!

[@armorhide406]

That's pretty impressive modelling

[@armorhide406]

or animation or whatever you did, cause even if you didn't model it, still

[@JM-tp8if]

@@armorhide406 Its completely animated.

[@KransefaWoW]

Very nice video man, very nice to show the sheer size of some of these ships!

[@Changlini]

The detail on that gray table is outstanding. Great work!

[@eballegro2]

These are very good, and MAN those things are HUGE!!

[@fjql]

Really great video! Thanks for posting. It fully conveys the scale of these beauties and makes me want to get home to play EVE Online again :-)

[@BonzaiR33]

Sweeeeet! I like it alot, and the colors look bang on to me! Keep up the good work!

[@Fredfredbug4]

wow! Very very well done. Its great to have a good idea of how big these ships are!

[@pip07200]

Beautifully done.

[@AltarenGalil]

Very good work i love the whole video. Really good zoom out in the end as well. Kudos

[@dmorlan]

You did a splendid job, bud. I hope to find more vids in the future.

[@kalden99]

There are definite benefits, some rather massive ones depending on the ship (One of those large ships listed was a freighter) But they also make you a juicy target if your just trying to roam around solo and pick off other pilots.

[@ejflesher]

Beautifully done illustration.

[@TCCflow]

Nice job mate. this looks really nice :)

[@Reactive808]

Excellent vid. Your choice of music was also excellent.

[@WastedFrom1976]

Great video, really nice work.

[@TtheWriter]

Absolutely amazing video. I can now grasp the scale of the ships properly thanks to you. All that zooming in and out makes it hard to tell sometimes. :)

[@johannez9123]

Awesome video. When i seen this video years ago it made me go back to try EVE online again for a second time (tried a trial some time before that shortly), still playing uptill today since. I would really like to see more of these videos.

[@Dabookman2010]

...wow. The Avatar is absolutely massive! And nice work on importing the models mate, they look fantastic. When Tyrannis comes out you should do this again with even more ships, the updated textures in Tyrannis will help tonnes too.

[@Gregdave]

Awesome looking presentation, good work!

[@Anigmalistic]

I still love the way this illustrates the scale of the things. If you had a model of a Magnate that was a fairly chunky desktop model an Avatar would be bigger than a bus!

[@Cartho8236]

Dude this is an amazing video, exactly what I was looking for! Hope you could find/make another one.

[@fittpappa687]

I love it how you use mostly Amarr ships =)

[@MrTubbbz]

That was FREAKIN awesome!!!

[@Willgtl]

Very well done on the camera work!

[@Mixamo3DAnimation]

Look at that detail on the models!!! amazing!!!!!

[@uNople]

Hey, awesome video. Thanks for the blurb on how you did it.

[@kramlinne5607]

Nicely done!

[@aklyon]

The Quafe billboard was a nice touch.

[@Deliphin11]

the epic designs of the ships and the sizes have made me to look at eve online, first i thought it would be boring... now i see it could be fun.

[@TheNorbertchen]

man, your videos are outstanding !

[@Tyetheberious]

Awesome job!

[@Mongodos]

now that is impressive. great job.

[@NiwatiX]

epic work , VERY good job!

you've been favorited CCP. kudos, man.

Very cool compilation.

[@zackblack989]

1:25 "whoa! that's a big ship!" O.o 1:32 "HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" >8O

[@Volzfan17]

Excellent work. I'm sure everyone would love if you made videos for the other races as well!

[@macbeerhunter]

i think you did a bang-up job... now i need to go play some eve...see you in new eden

[@foundation154]

great job and great initiative

[@schottenrock]

great vid 5stars, i'd love to see the other races too

[@Angryconsumernerd]

Thats an awesome video man

[@Didiacca]

Amazing, another video of the other 3 races would be great!

[@silverdraggin]

Very well made video thanks

[@reqage]

excellent job!

[@GiratinaofFury]

That's a load of my mind. Thanks for this.

[@natriumkarbonat50]

That was a beauty.

[@dfxjedi]

Great video!

[@AltarenGalil]

That table sure makes frigates look small. Still loving the video, its awesome

[@MrNintoku]

Ship classes would have been good reference point for people unfamiliar with the game.

[@Hittsy]

Good video, needs a banana for scale though.

[@jattmoli]

somebody called?

[@sadisticpsychofox]

[@gigicaly]

Nice Work. Wish the ships would look like that in EVE :).

[@Spekzz88]

Nice work, damn

[@wesleymccurtain166]

What is so nice about those huge ships is they look like asteroids that were fashioned into ships !

[@Dach101]

great render.

[@dame_nation]

I love Amarr ships best they look beautiful. Nice vid ^^

[@ThomasLBrock]

Every time I see a vid like this it gets me stoked about playing eve!!but then I play and I find my self bored out if my mind...traveling from gate to gate 10 times just to turn in a mission gets old...but I have to give eve props for it scale and uniqueness.

[@bodygank]

Very well done peace of work.

[@niceandblue]

Very nice, well made. Now lets see Gallente :)

[@MrN0mid]

Nice video ! EVE ftw ! Bump !

[@Syphered08]

awesome vid bro :)

[@valcan321]

wow really great!

[@skaboom64]

no way max richter. blue notebook. good choice and sick vid!!!!

[@TheUndert0ker]

sweet stuff there

[@masserphi2534]

wicked video bro, Well done , CCP should pay you

[@Fredfredbug4]

Ships in EVE are mechanically hooked up to the pilot via a goo filled pod. This allows the ship to react as fast as the pilot can think. However many ships have small skeleton crews that handle tasks such as loading and ejecting cargo or reloading guns.

[@dominicdelprincipe2583]

I love the Amarr bias

[@greatgoofy]

Well made, and btw they are are redoing all the models and improving the textures, starting with the scorpion ;)

[@erikfinnegan]

Excellent choice of music. CCP should contract that guy, Max Richter, for one expansion.

[@vagorari]

Brilliant video thanks for sharing

[@Chrischn89]

Outstanding vid! Wish you could see the table with the human on it and the Avatar next to each other just to get the feel of how tiny one human being can be... *g*

[@Leverquin]

AMARR!

[@Th0rodin]

great work! keep it up :) hopefully you'll get around and make something like that for all the other ships...it's only a couple more, you can easily tank those^^ one minor whine from me: can you make the camera penning slower? the details are awesome and i would realy like to appreciate them at their fullest :)

[@arktouross]

That's cool stuff. I'd love to see a Caldari version or even a station comparison.

[@polarisbear1337]

man that was cool

[@Cyfix15]

wow that Avatar looks like a god damn space station

[@QuiteTheMouthfull]

Damn, that's wicked.

[@Usernamenottaken2k]

Nice vid!

[@snowmobiler9]

Great video... You definatly need a Caldari and Minmitar video too.

[@Mekose]

This is fucking brilliant, such a good job.

[@addeyyry]

Great vid

[@l3uzzworthy]

awesome video definetly want to c the other major factions

[@EveOnlineRanger002]

awesome!

[@Kabukky]

@TakeBackTheWorld models and textures were all imported from EVE via TriExporter. I had to tweak the avatar texture cause it's too low res for such a close up, but that's about it.

[@Kabukky]

I like the general look of them. The Magnate in particular.

[@stratiosastero6880]

what is the music

[@Xalthir]

Actually, it's kind of interesting. The way that ships are flown in EVE is that they are plugged directly into the neurological systems of your pilot and all systems on the ship are controlled by your brain functions, which means that yes, with the proper knowledge you could actually fly a Titan alone in this universe! :D

[@henrix75]

very nice vid

[@rumaxtube]

Great work. thanks. All ships comparison plz

[@gajustempus]

there's only ONE thing to say about this video: MOTION SICKNESS!

[@Snipe80R]

simply !WOW!

[@motleyhar]

Very cool.

[@t260y]

I'm trying to draw a ship for the game for a contest and was wondering if there are like...IDK, classes for these ships or if some are of a certain brand. I lovee how you went about displaying the ships in this vid.
