Yeah, I wouldn't have minded any number of designers working on the Enterprise, but not Eaves. Not only does he have a habit of making things pointy, but he tends to add details that just don't make any sense or have any purpose. Others (Jeffries, Probert, Sternbach, etc.) didn't add unnecessary detail unless there was a reason for it. Eaves tends to go overboard.

I just really want to see one picture of someone in the uniform, really. Then we'll be able to judge the look of the piece, if they change or update it at all, or leave it the same. . .

Oh, yes: In the last Trek film, the new XO of the Enterprise was played by an actor who'd previously portrayed Robert F. Kennedy on film (twice!); in the new Trek film, the previous commander of the Enterprise is played by someone who'd previously portrayed John F. Kennedy on film. Yup, Bruce Greenwood is Pike. Is synchronicity, ja?

The question no one seems to be asking is, who will portray Dr. Piper? He was the CMO on the Enterprise in "WNMHGB," before McCoy started serving on the Enterprise. That is, unless McCoy was an out-of-sight assistant. And, for that matter, what about Kevin Riley?
Methinks these men will be conveniently forgotten in this movie. Not that I really care, personally.

DC Comics and Vonda McIntire both wrote "first mission" stories for Kirk and the Enterprise.
In one of them, I don't remember which, they had McCoy state that he had some important event coming up and this explained his absence in WNMHGB.

I don't blame him a bit. "So you gonna undertake a mission to beyond the galactic rim? Uh, I have this very important event coming up, you go right along, Jim..."
