Whether the pictures reveal what we "expected" it to look like, or whether it is "grand" enough, have no bearing on it's capabilities that it will have as per GTE's engineers and management.
To the layman (of which I am one) it does not look as impressive as S1. But I believe the true judge will be phyics, environmental factors, structural integrity, etc. and that is who they are trying to please.
I tend to think some of the persistent doubters of S2 on this board have ulterior motives.
All IMHO.
