Come on, man! You know this could work in the new Pacific Rim movie with the proper lighting.
Not the same man. Changes to shape and style change a design. Your attempt at warping the OG dish shows this to be the case.

This bunch is sure acting like it. They do not grasp basic design at all. Hell, Tushkin is saying redesigning something, so the shape is not the same at all, or the ratio, or the color, and with lighting added is the very same item!
No man. Once you change somethings shape, its color , the texture and the lighting its not "exact same ". It is clear the dish was inspired by the TOS dish, but its not the same dish.
Edit: And its only clear to folks who study the old dish.
Are you sure it isn't time for a colorful metaphor?
Seriously, dude. Take a breath. I'm concerned about your blood pressure.
I'd watch a movie with that robot and I'm 26.Come on, man! You know this could work in the new Pacific Rim movie with the proper lighting.
I see them. Hard to get details, in the pics we have, which I'm sure was deliberate.
You know what, a good designer should be able to work with different styles. If the show calls for Art Deco starships, then you gotta do cool looking Art Deco starships and not some Mass Effect shit. If you are doing Warhammer 40K, then you gotta make the ships look like gothic cathedrals.
You've been saying this for what seems like years and it's still not true. Bob Wise and Richard Taylor were responsible for the look of TMP. Roddenberry was along for the ride. Heck, he wanted to get the original model back from the Smithsonian to modify it for Phase II but they wouldn't give it up. Joe Jennings wanted to keep the styling Matt Jefferies designed for Phase II and was overruled by Taylor and Probert, not Roddenberry.
I don't recall where I read it, but I do remember Doug Drexler himself saying the NX-01's dish was the 1701's dish stretched sideways.
yeah, Doug Drexler purposely took elements from the TOS Connie when designing the NX-01 to show lineage.
Although Retro is not an inaccurate way to describe the look of TOS, Psychedelic and Disco Era(no pun intended) better describe the look, and that definitely is not going to fly now. though the Exterior of the Ship does not really look like those things(for the most part) the design and details are simplified in a way that is not pleasing the eye of the average Joe
Yeah, 21st century Hollywood film would never use something like that...Come on, man! You know this could work in the new Pacific Rim movie with the proper lighting.

It's all in here.
Good movie.Yeah, 21st century Hollywood film would never use something like that...
Trek does not call for that. The issue you guys are failing to grasp here. Only a tiny, every shrinking sub group wants what you are demeaning, and it will not grow Trek. DSC has a set style, so that is the style you design for. Not a canceled TV show from the 1960's which the setting moved on from 40+ years ago.
He went along with it man, he could have said no. The Fact you just pointed out he was gonna toss it anyhow. And it would have been cheaper to modify a model then scratch build. This is why we see the big models modified into new ships oh so many times.
