What is that picture from? It looks familiar.

The end of season
Not for me there isn't, not sure why it's gone but it's a real pain right now.
not sure this has been discussed yet, but ran across this shot from the EM magazine of the hoover-class USS edison and thought it was a pretty cool angle on a class we haven't seen much of (even when it showed up in "the escape artist"):
i love this compressed discovery-eseque arrangement. she's almost like what the nebula-class is to a galaxy-class ship only with the crossfield-class.

It reminds me of the Frankenstein Fleet in DS9, but if the decision to make a bunch of late-23rd century ships had been a creative one and not because that's what the model kits they had were. Like, if the Centaur had been bespoke.
I feel like it'd look a little more Shenzhou-y if the nacelles were parallel with the pylons. For better or worse, that's a pretty distinctive feature of the design.
Does it say in that article when it's going to be released?not sure this has been discussed yet, but ran across this shot from the EM magazine of the hoover-class USS edison and thought it was a pretty cool angle on a class we haven't seen much of (even when it showed up in "the escape artist"):

My next issue for the end of Feb. is the USS Shran.
Shran is Issue #11, and yeah, it should be shipping soon. Enterprise is right after at #12. Everything else is TBD, though you'd *think* the ships depicted in the last page of Issue #10 would come first. That isn't always how things work out.

I get the impression its the federation equivalent of a battleship.
It's pretty big so I would guess it being built as some fleet command ship.

I do like the Edison, its like a precursor to the Reliant.not sure this has been discussed yet, but ran across this shot from the EM magazine of the hoover-class USS edison and thought it was a pretty cool angle on a class we haven't seen much of (even when it showed up in "the escape artist"):

Hard to judge its size but the dish looks pretty big, shame it had an Idiot/Admiral for its Captain.
EDIT: This is not the ship I was looking for.

What do we know of the captain of the Edison?
Admiral Anderson was aboard the Europa instead (seemed a tad smaller than the Edison, despite having four nacelles), although whether he was that ship's captain or just a flag passenger, we don't know. And we never saw the skipper of the de Milo, Edison's sister ship, only that Lieutenant who was fed up with stuffing Mudd androids in his closet.

So according to one of the Star Trek Online artists, the top of the show's BoP CG model is made out of the top of the Cleave Ship, twisted and shrunk to fit the design.
Also apparently some parts of the show's Klingon CGI models were clearly made by different 3D artists based on how parts of of the models were built. Even individual parts on the same ship.

I guess I could kinda-sorta see that...
But to be honest, the top pic looks like a Klingon Pelican and the bottom a Klingon Bat.

Huh... that ship, sans “blade”, looks a lot like The Lexx.I guess I could kinda-sorta see that...
I'm pretty much just looking at the side view on this one. The other views, of course, will most likely look nothing like it.
Probably should have said it "reminds me" of The Lexx.

When the Mycellium network shuts down for good, will existing ships be retrofitted with round nacelles s, and new ships look more like the Constitution class?
