That USN lettering really pops. I was surprised how right it looks.If you're talking about that Enterprise variant, it remains about 95 percent complete. Pretty sure I shortened the neck on that one.

Dennis actually got the ship pretty right. At least she still feels TOS and in most ways still looks like it.
Well, once you play Superman and Lois Lane together...
I love it
I mean, that's all an opinion. It isn't clumsy to me, it's a beautiful design.

Looks like a ship.
Not gonna lie, I am actually a little surprised they're using the Discovery season 2 Enterprise with no noticeable changes. Modern Trek has new uniforms per season these days.
May can't come soon enough, so I can get SNW episodes and news without shifting trough pages of off topic and starship-prn debates... Hope the mods open the SNW subforum a couple of days prior at least.
I like what I've seen from the (leaked) SNW character/scene photos.
Hope also that they don't use the "blue" filter as it looks kinda retro without it and you can actually see more of the details and designs!
Wonder when Paramount decides to release the trailer that was apparently shown at the investors day.
The Enterprise bridge in DSC Season 2 looked so much better in promo shots than in the final episodes. The Final episodes look like they slapped a blue filter on it. Thankfully it doesn't look like they've done that for SNW

Is the Starfleet Delta-Badge on Uhura with the square behind it the new default?

No, it’s the cadet variation, and the same as Tilly’s in DSC S01. The other crew members have the same style deltas as the Enterprise crew in DSC S02, plain deltas with no backing and their division symbol in the center.
You can see examples of the standard style delta on Pike and Ortegas in these screengrabs from the quoted post below.

Honestly, the color is the more important part.
The Split & Angled Pylon along with lower neck is fine as a intermediate variant.
But they really need to use the colors of the TOS enterprise and get rid of the aztec-ing texture.
That wasn't a thing during the TOS era, it needs to be that beautiful enamel or Egg Shell white that we all know/love.
Small detail from the little footage we have, when the ship drops out of warp, you can see the impulse engines power up. I love it

Don't like that "warp poof" though. Didn't like it in TNG, DS9, Voyager etc and loved that it wasn't a thing at the end of Disco S2. Oh well.

It doesn't make sense to eliminate the plating at this point. They just need to do it better. It's a tricky thing to get right.
Still not of a fan of the recent trend for a ship to come to a dead stop the moment it drops out of warp instead of gliding forward until it stops but at least the warp jump itself is like the 1987-2005 Era of the franchise.
I don't like it in a pre TOS series since Kirk's NCC 1701 didn't do it until TMP.
In TOS there was no visual difference between warp and impulse.
Seems like a weird reason to dislike it.
More just for visual canon reasons.
It was probably budget not allowing more creative effects.
