It's common for free to play games to only have artists for their original development and then just higher temporary workers to make new designs when they want to release new items and maps.
Doesn't surprise me at all. Anyways, we've known for a while that Dust had no permanent, or even semi-permanent, artists left since Legion was put into development.

Sure, but considering the sheer amount of them dropping off in the same period, you have to sort of wonder what's going on. Project Legion especially would be grounds to hire -more- artists if they were doing anything differently, including stuff like that Salvaging drone (SCORPION) that they revealed.
I'm not sure. It's common practice in F2P to lay off practically all artists after the initial game is made. The last artist they dropped in December was probably the one they kept around for new releases.

That would be the case if CCP was getting bunch more guys. No concept, technical, level artists means no new assets. Thats why most of the updates is mostly made up of monetization crap, changes to mechanics, and bug fixes. They are probably still artists but they probably not even thinking about designing anything new with Dust.
CCP has already come out and said that they don't have any artists and that nearly all assests have been diverted to Legion. You guys are looking too far into this.
