The final version of the Discovery actually does have Starfleet hull livery. It's located on the outboard sides of the warp nacelles and was inspired by the design seen in TNG.

I don’t care for the design of Discovery, BUT the version of the Enterprise that showed up at the end of DIS season 2 is probably my absolute favorite design for Enterprise I’ve ever seen. It’s so sleek yet sturdy looking, and I LOVE how the pylons are super angled backward, but not too flattened down. The drive section has the nice barrel shape, the nacelles are intimidating but not stupidly over sized like in the reboot movies, ah I just love that Enterprise so much! Take that model and replace it’s saucer section with the almost cruise ship like looking saucer section if Enterprise D and you got my dream ship right there.

My favorite thing about the new enterprise is that it looks EXACTLY like what I would imagine a successor to the NX01 to look like. The nacelles look just like an evolved version of the nx01, and even the swept back nacelle pylons. Once you look at the full lineage of enterprises, the og looks very out of place (of course by no fault of its own, it was the first) but now we know the nx01 came before it the new one is just superb

I think everyone would have been much more forgiving of it if that were the case. For some reason though CBS and Paramount seem to think that TOS era is the only thing people care about (or the only thing that will make money). Now they've even pulled the Spock card for next season! At least they seem to be coming around though with the Picard series.

Game Sack It does that likely as an optical effect of the drive, just like warp drive traditionally distorts the ships appearance in several ways. The original warp effect was of the Enterprise slowly fading away, while the most familiar effect is the longitudinal pointed distortion seen in TNG DS9 VGR and the later films. It might help to consider those effects as non diegetic as they seem to change often until the start of TNG and for no more reason than the producers wanting to try something different.

It is fascinating how they took a design the fans HATED and then said "Lets improve on that design and keep it going!" And that is how they wrote the story.

I really like your videos! Your attention to detail is informative and entertaining, and you have some good humor (I especially love the Marsh Melon episode). Is there any chance you might do future videos about various shuttlecraft, like the Type 7 and it's various onscreen changes (and it's more ufo-like concept art, and failed attempts to make a full-scale version), the type 6 and it's rebuild from the Star Trek V shuttle and later it's other rebuild into the type 8 and then that random one-off ship in Voyager, the little lower-budget Type 15 Shuttlepod, and so on? Those would be awesome to see.

On hull livery: There are deltas and stripes on the nacelles, but they’re painted silver and tend to blend in to the rest of the hull when photographed. There is also a delta and stripe on Discovery’s belly, but shots in show rarely show it. Just thought you’d like to know, Junkball. Great video as always!

Gonna have a controversial opinion, I think the discovery ship looks quite cool especially seeing their design inspiration and thought process, also didn't know the thing about crossfield being named after a pilot or the walker being named after a pilot. I also really liked the crossfield class as it was a pretty neat departure, kinda the same but different, especially without the poorly designed bridge dome on top. Feels like a ship designed for war.

Purdue1986Boiler I like the show and ship well enough but actually think the trailer version was better if just cleaned up for production filming. It looked like something that could have directly preceded the TOS Enterprise design, and The recessed section reminds me of the Oberth class. A ship I have long thought must predate the TOS era by a long time, the Grissom has a 3 digit registration number far lower than anything seen from TOS and later designs and it lacks any sort of lighting effects for the engines or other non window elements. Just like the very early Cage era Enterprise. If there’s still a design element that links them it would have to be the windows, the canon size of the Oberth would clash with the deck count you get going by the bumper of window rows on the model. But Discovery has a unique design where many decks have two levels of windows, if you layout the Oberth deck plan along side it’s external model you get several decks that would have two rows of windows! Oh, and the nacelles being attached directly to the hull is shared between them.

Yep i don't like it either. Looks like they took a saucer and strapped a klingon D7 to the back of it. Even the spere in the saucer in front has echos of the D7. As a designer i think it was a bad choice to go back to concept art. There's usually a reason why it got stuck to being concept art, because it was NOT the best design. The design grew, changed and then became the final design in the constitution class. That design best matched the vision of rodenberry and what he wanted for star trek, the concept disovery is based on didn't. To me discovery does not feel like a star fleet ship at all, simply becauses of the very wide, angular back section that looks nothing like anything we ever saw before in star fleet. As i already said, the back looks more like a klingon ship then a star fleet ship. They should have made the effort to design something new. Plenty of ideas and creatives out there. But the show seems in short supply of those for anything they do as in general, i don't like the design choices they made (or the show in general for that matter). The general aesthetic of the show is nothing like star trek or star fleet for me.... The aesthetic of the show looks more like Battlestar: Discovery or Star trek: The expanse. :)

I think that the Discovery, the STB Enterprise and de SBC Aegis are the most beautiful ships in the Star Trek history.

The ultimate problem with the design of the ship is that they used an early and unused concept sketch from the design process for another ship. There is a reason why they didn’t go with that concept sketch. Because it’s bad. Designers make dozens of these kinds of sketches when finding which one fits. It’s ludicrous that everyone treats everything that the original artists did like they’re the end all be all of designs. You know, in the design process, you end up making a lot of SHIT before you make something that’s good and works. Like Chewbacca, they didn’t use the first idea they thought of. But rebels took their first idea and made that ugly THING

Oh yea, Junkball Media uploaded a new video!

I knew I was right in thinking only the top spins and not the main saucer, so many youtube channels kept saying the whole saucer

I feel like so many of the concept art pictures were much stronger than the final product. The ship still looks dumb and I do not like it. I wish the Shenzhou was the main ship of the show (but scaled down in size so its saucer section is the same size as the constitution class).

It is often shown to be the most advanced ship class of the fleet, but that has little to do with size. Being vastly more advanced than the Shenzou can simply mean better in every way and more compact overall.

Actually the ship is my least issue with the show :/ it's all the other elements that were plagiarized from the 2014 indie game "Tardigrades".

Apparently Fuller originally wanted the Discovery to disguise itself as a D-7, hence the ball on the neck and the squared-off nacelle housing.

(Trying to convey in a neutral emotion) I love Eaves, I don't blame him for what he was given to work with, but still Fuller should've given Eaves some slack to come up with another legendary ship and not polish up wadded up art that Gene Roddenberry and or others threw away.

This is why star trek has lasted and why the new shows fail.

I have to address the elephant in the room, that concept for the Enterprise that became the Discovery, WAS REJECTED in the 1970s. As in it was not found favorable, so why in the hell would they use a concept that didn't make the cut?

1:10 The problem is - Ralph McQuarrie's style (especially in scifi with the wide reaching audience of Star Wars) was something that defined the " used future" aesthetic we see in Star Wars and Alien, i.e. all the 80's. Star Trek was originally made in the 60's when scifi was still 'supposed' to look sleek and clean. [I think Roddenberry even stipulated minimum lines and detail on the hull! "Race car" "dragster" in space with aviation influences] When they did the re-fit in 1979 they updated while still keeping a sort-of 'smooth' aesthetic - at the least EVERYTHING FLOWED and looked good at any filming angle (apply the 1/3 frame thing or the Golden Ration to any angle of the original or refit and it will look good. Applies for the most part to TNG but not Voyager. I can't really count DS9 (since the station was symmetrical and the Defiant too compact - though it applies and makes it work perfect in battle shots). I give up on NX-01 ... too simple to delve into like the Defiant, except a pie tin in the air at any angle would work (I actually dig the NX design in secret). I think the refit even accentuated this aesthetic by sweeping the nacelle struts back at a V ... and moving the connection of the pylons forward on the secondary hull, which makes sense when we see the new larger shuttle/cargo bay in TMP ... and the ends of the nacelles at angles. I'd bet the angels in which the rim of the saucer, the neck, the struts, the shuttlebay, etc are even on tempo. Yes, space has no air so why make things aerodynamic etc. But that's the design that was laid out that defines the franchise. It's not the Millenium Falcon it's the Excelsior, it's not a Star Destroyer its the Enterprise yadda yadda. Referring to a concept that was radically different and never followed through with through 13 films and 4 TV series makes no sense. It's a dead end. It's even dead on the timeline because pre-Discovery ships follow the same aesthetic as Matt Jefferies, Probert, etc. It looks like carving fork.

I go back and forth on whether I like the ship design. I like the longer nacelles and I like the general shape of the ship, I just don't like that the secondary hull is raised up on a neck but the whole back end of the ship is flat. It feels really unbalanced.

Fascinating history to the design. I really like it, but not so keen on the bronze finish.

I don't like the open shuttle bay , enemy ship can pretty much blast it way thru the force field once the shields go down.

Great video. I particularly like the detail on plates rotating...not rings. I swear I have seen rings rotating in the show. I bet the spore flip is also an illusion, and it works differently than my brain perceived it. Could you do the same for other DSC ships? And will you review other Eaglemoss models from DSC line?

So the copper look comes from the faded, old paper of the McQuarrie design sketch?

I want to get the new Polar Lights model of Discovery just so I can convert it to look like a proper Star Fleet ship!

sometimes I want to design my own starship

I'm just here for the used matress sale

despite some bugs, that startrek game was actually really awesome, and had some of the best environment art/assets any games had. Luckily that game became WARFRAME. Sadly Warframe deviated a lot when it came to characters and mood.

Just one word to describe that thing: Uuuuugly

@@OOTurok Enterprise-J, hands down, no contest. The Discovery at least has some positive traits and a few angles she looks good (or at least decent) in. The Universe-class, on the other hand.... I spent 20 minutes flying around one in STO in every possible angle to find at least ONE she looks presentable in,... and it is not possible. There is literally no possible way to make that frizbee and twigs look decent from ANY angle

@@k1productions87 That's true. The space pancake is ugly from every conceivable angle... but the Discovery is a very, very close second for most ugly. I think the USS Shenzhou is a really badass design though. I really wish the show was about Capt. Georgiou & her ship. I like her character. Can't stand the Burnham Mary Sue, & I don't care much for the Kirk wannabe Capt Pike.

ok what is the intro music? ive heard it before and so want to find it again

So it's actually based on the Canadian Avro Arrow which predates the examples given. Canada also contributed to putting a man on the moon yet we get no credit for our role in that en-devour either.

No, its based off of the XB-70. The CF-105 Arrow is a smaller interceptor design, while the XB-70 is a larger strategic bomber. The XB-70 has a much longer fuselage and is very different than the CF-105. The Canadian CF-105 shares much of its design elements with American aircraft of the period, such as the Convair F-102 Delta Dagger, they're both delta-wing interceptors from the 50s. The XB-70 was following a later design choice that many aircraft manufacturers of its time were testing. Perhaps you are thinking of the Avro 730, the English design that was cancelled but was to have the same role as the American XB-70?

Shit no wonder I like the Crossfield class, I LOVED the XB-70. Mad I didn't see it before.

At least the Crossfield class design is very unique and different from most other starfleet ship designs

What’s the song that you played when Star Trek Discovery popped up in the beginning.

04:40 What are "bizarre collectors?" (That's not just me. The closed captions heard it that way, too.)
