Community Beat for 4 July

by EVE Online Community Team10:00am on Friday 4th July 2025

Hello again, spacefriends, and welcome back to a new edition of the Community Beat!

We were going to say it’s been a busy week, but really, when isn’t it? From strange shapes in space clouds to SKINR creations worthy of their own fashion show, and ship models that double as jewelry, this week’s roundup is full of the weird, the stylish, and the creative. Let’s dive into the highlights!


Staring contest

We're not saying it's a space dwarf... but we're also not not saying it's a space dwarf.

This shot was posted to Reddit after uEldestOfGregs spotted something strange in the clouds. It looks like a dwarf drifting through the void. Shoulders, beard, torso... it's all there. Or is it?

Whatever you see, just don’t stare too long. The void stares back.

Undock in Style

Whether you're mining, hunting, exploring, or just showing off on the undock, looking good never hurts. We've rounded up a small fleet of SKINR designs that stood out recently. Honestly, some of these deserve their own fashion show.

And while we're on the topic of style... check out these miniature EVE ship models from this Reddit post. If you ask us, they could easily be used as cuff links, necklace pendants, or the most competitive Monopoly pieces ever crafted. Want. To. Buy.

Art Corner

Not everyone deals with the chaos of space battles the same way. Some rage roll a hole. Some write long AARs. And some, like u/DOT_____dot, sit down and paint.

Others channel their creativity into guides, like Rixx Javix who shared an infographic on stargates in one of his latest blog posts.

Celebratory Explosions

To celebrate 15 years of the Black Rebel Rifter Club, they are handing out 4000 free Rifters and inviting everyone to rain hell on Bosboger. This celebration, dubbed the Bosbo Bloodbath, kicks off tomorrow, Saturday 5 July, at 20:00 UTC.

As if that won't result in enough wrecked Rifters, Ushra'Khan launches their Liberation Day Celebrations from 7 July onward. Among the events are not one, but two Rifter Free-For-Alls, complete with T1-fitted handouts

All events and reward details will be listed on PANDORA, so keep an eye out if you’re looking to jump in.


That’s all for this week. Don't forget to share your screenshots if you're taking part in this weekend's mayhem, or if you see something cool in space. Share it on the EVE Subreddit, the EVE Discord, or tag us on socials. We'd love to see it!

Until next time! o7
