Definitely resembles the TMP Andorian look. But I really can't see them going "backwards" with the look - unless they move, they're gonna look very dated in 2017.

Interesting. Didn't expect Andorians to be part of this but I welcome it

Could be a main character, or just background scenery. Like the Vulcan in "Encounter at Farpoint".

To me this, along with the Klingon concept art, is more potential evidence Discovery is going either way back or way forward in time.

Great! Love to see the Andorians... Love to see the Vulcans and Tellarites as well... I hope Discovery will be a bit like Enterprise season 5. Birth of the Federation, Romulan and or Klingon War... Would love to see that!

I wrote out a fairly long theory why I think it's far ahead in time, 31st century even. Might post it here.

First thing I thought when I saw that was "plant." Not Andorian.

Makeup test on a plant.

Seems legit.

 

[Mirror Mirror]

While I would enjoy that. It does not look like them to me.

For the love of God, no more War Trek.

Hm. Might just be the white base, but... Aenar maybe?

Doesn't exactly fill me with excitement.

Is it just not finished yet? Cause the orange is really throwing me off.

 

[Kor]

I thought the orange was a piece of fabric covering the base of whatever it is we're looking at.

I wouldn't worry. With a name like "Discovery" I doubt we're getting a war-centric show.

now that would be progressive / inclusive / diverse

Like the Phylosians.

More Andorians is always a good thing in my book.

Maybe an Andorian, maybe not. This is a makeup test, so no way to tell what the final "look" will be. I for one don't buy the notion that the makeup designs give an indication of the series' time period. I'll also note that STO pretty much confirmed what I suspected for a long time--that there's a lot of racial diversity among Andorians!
