SerpentineLogic posted the following pics on Reddit, featuring what appears to be a very modern Tempest model:
From the Back:
This was posted quite recently, and the comments were rather few.. but still, the majority of them seemed rather positive with the new change. Myself, I think it is a very nice improvement over the original as it keeps its distinctive style, while giving it more a more solid, modern look. The back of this ship looks really, really cool and personally, I think think this model is a worthy re-imaging of the iconic ship.

This video I just had to add when I saw it. It includes the already mentioned Caldari and Minmatar Tier 2 destroyers, as well as the Tempest Remodel.. but it also includes the Gallente destroyer model, which looks fairly similar to General Grevious’ fighter in Star Wars III.
I hope so.
