New Star Trek pic out...

Of the new Enterprise (Behind link for those wishing to remain spoiler-free.)

Whatcha think?

Wow, that's overwrought and ugly. Like someone had their own wacky ideas but was constrained to the original design, and wasn't happy about it.

I've seen that a couple of times, now, but not from a reliable source, yet. Where'd you find it? Are we sure yet that that's not just a fan render?

As far as what I think of it .... I don't .... *hate* it, I guess. Well, I kinda do. Mainly, it looks to me like the "neck" is slid waaay too far back on the secondary hull, making the whole thing look kind of ungainly.

*shrug* I don't know. I'd have to see it in motion. I'm trying to keep in mind that when I first saw pictures of 1701-D, that looked "wrong" to me, too.

Frankly (sorry, you've apparently tapped into a deep vein of Six-can't-shut-up), I don't think they should have changed the design at all. I've seen computer renderings in recent years that have taken the original design, and given it more depth and detail, and they looked great. They should have just done that.
