Yeah I saw the article today and I'm pretty sure its an April's Fool joke.

Sweet illustration for a gag.

The Battleship turrets really put the Enterprise's actual size in perspective. I wish they'd done something like that from the beginning in TOS, some small telltale visual aid that would be recognizable to the audience.

That's sick... yet interestingly keeping my attention.

Funny! As much as I wouldn't want to see this in Trek XI, I kinda like it too! Any idea who did the artwork?

Looks like I get to answer my own question. According to this page (at TrekMovie.com), the drawing was done by Jason "Vektor" Lee, a name familiar to many of us within the sci-fi art circles. (And FYI, he *doesn't* want the Enterprise to look like this in the movie.) There's also a larger picture available of the drawing in the above link.
