Looks like they've added gold trim to the Enterprise uniforms, and tweaked the ship design to be almost as derivative of the Akira as the NX-01 was
Thanks mate yeah I know about that work around, but still... one shouldn't have to do thatGo to savemedia.com and search for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9QHrNdgX4UWait a few seconds for available formats and click on "download video". http://www.therpf.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=703592&d=1486072492http://www.therpf.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=703593&d=1486073264

Yeah,I think you nailed my thoughts on this. The few glimpses we've had of the aesthetic just don't feel TOSFirst flash through my head was "Enterprise uniforms with JJTrek badges". The gold makes me think it's a dress uniform, but still one more derivative of those than TOS. The new ship design (be it the Discovery itself or some other ship) reminds me of the Centaur kitbash from DS9:

But my overall feeling from what I'm seeing is this is bridging Enterprise with Trek09, despite them saying it's Prime timeline. The trappings don't fit that well for that, but slot into the other nicely. :/

I was thinking the same things. I hope they're not throwing everything out and starting over again, but I'm not paying for All Access so I really don't have a dog in this fight.Yeah,I think you nailed my thoughts on this. The few glimpses we've had of the aesthetic just don't feel TOS
The wire frame ship isn't a new design for the Discovery, best guess at the moment is that it is the Shenzhou, Michelle Yeoh’s ship. Interestingly, it's very similar to a 24th Century design done by John Eaves for an Australian fan club a while back. Eaves in on staff of Discovery.

these are NOT Klingons...sigh

NO they certainly are not. Unless they are trying to say there is some other variety nobody's ever seen before.
Bad sign indeed if this really is their "Klingons".
Those are the Klingons that the Empire really doesn't discuss with outsiders.
There is a decent chance that Extra is SOOOOOO fired...
