The New USS Discovery....

[Michael]

Yeah, the window at the front of the dome matches the shape of the same on the bridge from the last behind the scenes video. If that render is accurate it looks to be on the small side.

You are right! I hadn't noticed. Cool.

A couple of other things I’ve noticed too:
- The curved spines on the outside of the dome is echoed on the inside of the bridge.
- On the render it looks like there are massive viewports ringing the perimeter of the dome at the top.

The more I see of this ship the more I love it.

Could we figure out the size of the ship with those images?

Not consistently, though. Four of the spines can be found on the inside of the bridge as well, but two are missing.

Unless they only needed four structurally inside, or it's entirely aesthetic?

The main problem is the ship looks too Cardassian like that.

Yep, just wanted to say the same thing. New theory: Starfleet hired Cardassian contractors to build the Discovery.

I still find it crazy that in all off the marketing material, we've only seen one VFX shot of Discovery's exterior and tons of the Shenzhou.

Very nice! Some angles work better than others, but overall I've really begun to appreciate the bold direction they are going with this. It's also interesting to see that they seem to have scaled up the bridge module compared to when we first saw the design, shrinking down the ship in the process.

That one'e my favorite angle:

If it wasn’t for the ridiculously long nacelles and the silly saucer cutouts, I’d be in love. With those I’m liking her, instead of loving her.

CBS is hiding it.

Android crewmember!

No, that's the love-child of Scorpius and Frieza

 

[Tuskin38]

I was thinking Nebula from MCU

I think that's because most of what we've seen so far appears to be from the first episode, and that seems to mainly focus on Burnham's time on the Shenzou.

I think the bridge is a little smaller. On the outside of the CG model seen on the eaglemoss site, there are windows either side of the bridge window, indicating a corridor around. I think the bridge itself only takes up the white circle area on top.

We know one of the doors off the back leads to the Ready Room too

More consoles with an older design on it.

Was the current exterior designed finalized after they did all the console graphics?

 

[137th Gebirg]

Probably. Same thing happened in NuBSG and in TMP both using TOS designs from their own respective universes.

 

[The Librarian]

Yeah, the angles are definitely making or breaking this model. Flat on, it's ok. But, it's a tough go.

Also, love the blue highlights on the tech!

I think that whoever made those renders forgot to change the camera settings. The orthos look right compared to the Eaglemoss ones, but the angles look like they forgot to switch from orthographic to perspective rendering, which is why everything looks weird sizes.

Something about this is just so much sexier than the other images...

 

[Tuskin38]

I like the blue windows

I've done my LAST Discovery poster before the show airs!
