Into Darkness deleted scenes and concept art

An original Constitution class from one of the Into Darkness cut scenes

As you might recall, Paramount did an impressive job of dividing up the extra features on the Into Darkness home video releases, so that you had to seek them out from as many different retailers and providers as possible if you wanted to see everything. One of those sources is X-Box SmartGlass, an app for mobile devices that displays extra bits on your second screen along-side the digital copy of the film on the X-Box. That includes exclusive behind-the-scenes clips, concept art (which I have posted a sampling of before), and the only place you'll find any of the deleted scenes (although some have been eluded to in other behind-the-scenes features).

For those without a X-Box those deleted scenes have remained a mystery, until now. The resourceful people over at TrekCore have tracked them down, and posted detailed descriptions of them all. There are nine deleted scenes available:

• An alternate take on the discussion between Pike and Kirk in Pike's office.
• The explanation of Carol Marcus' English accent.
• A different version of Uhura speaking to the Klingons on Qo'noS.
• And a different version of the start of the fight with the Klingons.
• Thomas Harewood's message to Admiral Marcus.
• A Captain's Log scene after the Nibiru incident.
• Kirk witnessing Pike's death.
• Scotty blagging his way into the Section 31 shipyard.
• Kirk meeting the Harewood's after his speech at the end of the film.

Meanwhile, one of the film's production artists, Victor Martinez, has posted some samples of his work form the film on his website. Including artwork of Qo'noS, the Enterprise's warp core, and England, like these:
