Dilanski and Colette don't.
I would, if it were a central, defining component for the faction and had a good justification, not to mention a creative execution.

Take, for example, a faction which were to consist of a hive-minded rampant AI virus infection. With no tangible form, the AI's only means of taking action in the physical realm would be to hack and hijack ships and hardware. Some creative modding could yield a motley of ships of all sizes from across a dozen star nations, all dilapidated, rusting, and falling apart from decades of disrepair and lack of maintenance from their former organic masters.

This is pretty similar to the idea I had with Ireul. I could probably act on it if Silva wanted to.

And that's not justification enough by itself? The most important part of any faction design is figuring out how to use it to troll other players.

That sounds amazing, and it would mean that something actually came out of the Silvarian genocides. Please do.

As always, I have the perfect EVE related example, the Dominix is a Gallente battleship, a large space potato, which fights using drones, sort of like a miniature carrier. Also, due to the relatively low recruit rate of the Gallente, their ships are heavily automated, using mostly drones no less. And according to TV tropes, this can only lead to a sentient AI controller taking over hundreds of these battleships, killing the crew, and turning them into an army of kilometre long sentient drones.

They have a suitably eerie visage as well, Gallente grey and green is gone, replaced with a dark tone. With no need for a crew, a large portion of the superstructure is removed as dead weight, and massive singgle 'eye' sensors are equipped, as well as several long insect like antennae and scythe like talons, added to an already organic design, make it look like a nightmarish space insect.

An army of ghost ships, be they mechanical or supernatural, would be cool, as long as they made the changes to the designs interesting enough to care.

An older pre-V3 shader image.

Now of course this doesn't alleviate the problem of Emeria not fitting this description. Regardless, it comes down to just making your own stuff when you feel you've figured out how to, as eventually we'll all just stop caring about repainted ships, because Scythe, Colette, or someone else has put an order of magnitude more effort into another model, and we'd rather marvel and comment about that.

I have a feeling that certain people will always bitch about stolen builds.

There is one thing about the copy-pasta dealio that bugs me though. If you don't want your ideas stolen, then don't upload them for others to steal. It would sort of be like the US uploading the designs to their newest tank to the internet and then complaining that the Russians are copying them.

We upload the LXFs so other people can use them in forum battles without having to build them from scratch, one of the greatest advantages to using LDD for microspace.

El Burro class Battleship added.
EDIT:
Lxf added. The link is the main picture. Feel free to edit, tweak, mod, etc. it. Just give credit where it's due. Remember, I enjoy seeing what other people can do with my models.

Are those missile tubes mounted directly under main guns?

Been a while :p

Hey look, El Burro's already in Mk. III
I decided I hated the bow and lack of gun on the underside, so I fixed all of those. Also changed up the back end by the hangar doors to not look so offensive to my eyes.
Favorite part, though, has got to be the new Bridge. I still think I need to change it little, but baby steps.
