USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

Thanks for posting that. I'm hoping that this is only for the MU (previously PU) Defiant and not a design for all Constitution class vessels in DIS. Obviously this is only my opinion, but I'm not seeing how this is an improvement over the original Connie seen in TOS. It doesn't look any more or less modern than the model created back in the 60s. It looks like a fan made kitbash in all honesty.
That is because this is a fan made kitbash. It looks wrong from the wirefram in a few ways and ot uses TOS textures, which DSC will not.
Frankly if the MU refit of the Defiant did look like the Trekyard animation I wouldn't hate on it. I'm an old school Trekkie who absolutely loves what ENT did to the Defiant with then-modern CGI and surface texturing thirteen years ago and I'm not a fan of "sexing up" an iconic pop culture design just because it can be done to appease a certain demographic, but as long as the final result we see is recognizably close enough to the TOS/DS9/ENT Connie then I'll be fine.
My temporally-displaced, Prime quantum signature-bearing body is ready.
Final scene: they should show 5 seconds of Enterprise-D, just to mess with everyone.
No, the Enterprise-J. It'll be better than the P-51s shooting down the shuttlepod while alien Nazis inspect Archer's body.
So one pizza-cutter meets another?
Engines are warm and ready. 
By that era, they probably are Federation members.
I want to see a Xindi or else I'm boycotting the show. Then blow it up with a superweapon.
I just found this article which has a short video of a fan made Discovery Style Enterprise.
Also in the article is a video that someone made of the Burnham/Saru bath scene set to 'i'll make love to you' by Boys II Men

Yeah that fan made ship misses the mark by a mile. You are not gonna see it look that reto and out of place
I've been told the original Enterprise was allowed to be altered by "25%" from it's 1960s look. That's a pretty vague directive, but at least it sounds like it won't be a crazy radical departure. Within those confines, you could probably change enough to bring it to modern standard.
That covers a huge amount of ground. I Mean, taking textures out, the TMP is not a huge shift from the TOS design, it might not even be 25%. Those are what stand out to many people, are the textures, not as much as the design changes themselves.
I didn't mind the Hull detail but overall, I don't think it would fit. Also, I don't get why the nacelle pylons have windows.
I do like this design though:
I like that redesign as well. Here it is from another angle.
