On the contrary, this drawing is based off a carrier concept shown at an arms show...
So not quite fanboy work

I stand corrected.. however the Russians are not going to build a QE CVF look-alike. I just don't believe it. They've been spouting on about building a new fleet of Cvs since 2006 or so and as of yet not a single piece of steel has been cut.

Here are some drawings by someone named messiah527.

My translation of the google translation.

The following picture are from a military forum users. An active duty(?) U.S. Navy member,messiah527, drew these ships based on the future of the U.S. fleet. Most of the ships look like sci-fi stealth ships.

Original Chinese. Any corrections to my translation of the Google translation are appreciated.

以下图片是国内军事论坛网友messiah527以美国海军现役战舰为基础绘制的美军未来舰队想象图。图中所画的各型舰艇看起来略有几分科幻,有不少高速舰、三体舰的设计,大部分都采用了隐身设计。

This caption fully admits this is fan art..This is the most heavily armed carrier I've seen since a WWII Essex class.

虽然中国已经有了首艘航母辽宁舰,但这远远不能让军迷满意,这么大的国家,怎么能没有核航母呢?当然,要发展也不是一朝一夕就能完成的。所以,就先设想一下过过瘾吧!图为网友设想的中国海军华清级核航母。该航母满载排水量高达15万吨,吓人吧!(来源:兔吧 作者鹰之海洋)

Although China has had Liaoning ship's first aircraft carrier, but it is far from satisfied with military fans make such a big country, how can the nuclear aircraft carrier did not it? Of course, it takes time to develop can be done. So, have fun first imagine it! Pictured users envisaged Chinese naval Huaqing class nuclear aircraft carrier. The aircraft load displacement of up to 150,000 tons, scary! (Source: Eagle Marine rabbit right of the author)

I know it's fan art but that ship will have incredibly bad seakeeping qualities. I'm not ship designer but looking at the picture, I'm going to guess the hydrodynamics mainly because of the design of the bow would be terrible!!!!
Also what a waste of deck space. It's obvious whoever drew the carrier doesn't know a lick about carrier design.

Looks like it was thought up by someone who is interested in a vessel that could launch huge numbers of aircraft and put a lot of lead in the air in a virtual computer gaming environment, and not in the real world.

Things like that can be made to operate in a sci-fi computer gaming fantasy world. But not here "in rerum natura."
