I think you can rephrase that a little better.
I would, if they lose the chrome.
As a designer... I do not like it. If this was a New Trek movie with a new crew..I would ok with. It could have been set in TMP Era..It would fit as a new ship, but why make a movie and call it a TOS Movie and change everything that fans loved about TOS trek?
On top of that, make it hard for fans to try to fit it in the cannon of the series. I see it hard to have this ship be refit to the REAL TOS Ship.
I am sorry, As a fan of all the movies and series, I will not pay to see this movie, I respect all the other people who will, but again as a fan for all of my life, I had to say something.
Thanks

Looks good to me, reminds me ALOT of Gab's Enterprise. Pretty much what I had been expecting actually.

The engineering hull needs MAJOR upscaling (Though the shape of it is pretty aesthetically pleasing). Right now, it reminds me of the Belknap, with its puny little engineering hull. Seriously, if I were the designer, I'd scale it up, push it back, and push the pylons forward.
The saucer is good. Saucers take a lot of hard work to screw up.
And I really do dig the nacelles. They have a very sleek retro vibe and a nice shape, but they could do with having the pylon attachment further aft.
She's alright, but she's too front-heavy.

Wow, I think that looks bad personally! The saucer looks okay. But geesh!
I actually don't think it looks that bad. True, it's not the original NCC-1701, but not bad none-the-less.
You need to look at an actual picture of his ship and compare it to this. The new ship and Koener's have in much in common as the new ship and the original design do.
So you think this design is less valid than something built 40 years ago with the cheapest materials GR and company could find. The TV version of the ship looked like it did because that was what they could afford. Now I'm not trying to sound like a broken record here but it's a solid design it envokes the TOS Enterprise, it looks a HELL of alot better than the model from the sixties and anyone expecting the ship to look like it did on tv is just fooling themselves. Period.
I am starting to like her, but then again I did like the 1701-E & NX-01 so what do I know.
To answer Meredith I do see 701 just past the deflector so I'm thinking this is it. Can't wait to see it in a fight.

The more I look at her, the more I like her, even though I do like the photoshop manip that pushes the secondary hull back a little.
Other then that, I can deal with it. I find if funny about everyone bitching about the nacelles, thats the part of the ship I really like.
I think the key with it is it ENVOKES the TOS enterprise, without being a direct copy. I really am starting to like it.

Rick posted over at trekmovie and said he was mildly disappointed but didn't elaborate much further. I'd find you the quote, but the site's broken at the moment.
I did too. I don't mind change as long as its positive. To me, this isn't.
I like it.
I've always loved the original Enterprise, but this is a very acceptable update. In a way, I think we've always accepted the TOS-E because we never saw her DO anything other than just fly by. It was because of budget limitations, I feel.
Even when we saw her in TOS-R or as the Defiant on ENT, she never really gave me the impression she was all that manuverable. This ship looks like she can MOVE.

I don't see chrome either. It looks like black glass to me.
I don't see any negative changes... the ship looks more functional and sturdier. Like it could possibly survive the stress placed on it in orbit or at high warp speeds. Looking back at the "ruler" pylons from TOS they look very frail.
