I don't think anyone else has ever tried to extrapolate this class before from what was seen on screen, so I thought I might as well give it a go.

I actually think I made it a little too skinny, perhaps I'll widen it on the top view by about 20%.

It's still just a sketch at this stage and need alot of detail work.

Wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that the exterior mockup matches one of the two full-ship sketches in The Making of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine? At least, I think two whole ships were shown.

Nice Reverend!

Maybe a LITTLE bit wider but I think that's pretty good.

I have always assumed that the Nacelles connected to the under side of the two (each side) jutting out prongs. So two Nacelles on either side. Maybe even of the type like seen on the Springfield/Cheyenne.

Or EVEN older - Ambassador vintage.

They were probably jettisoned for crashlanding or were removed over the years for parts or to remove the potentially hazardous things from being right near their camp.

There appear to be landing struts of some kind touching the ground under the prongs that come away from the body of the ship. So I doubt it had nacelles there. I also think that the ship would have to be much wider than you've shown to accomodate a small colony. Say, twice as wide, at least. But I like the subtle Danube resemblences.

That's true about the struts. But the Danube could land on it's nacelles.

Where would you be putting the nacelles on this ship... something like the Raven?

I actually decided to use some Ju'day-Class style warp engines, you can see them on the aft engine block.
