Congrats on the news Sean, that's just fantastic! Please let us know more about the model when you can.
Certain angles kind of remind of the new Battlestar Galactica and the Daedalus from Stargate, which is kind of neat.
I also like the "landing strip" for the shuttlebay. It's like a driveway in front of the garage. And if I were driving...err, flying...a shuttle, it would probably help me aim so I don't knock off my rear-view mirror on the shuttlebay wall.

So by that logic any starship with upward sweeping pylons and without a large pod on the saucer must be a Sovereign Class?
There are many ships in Starfleet with common design elements. The Nebula, Miranda and Akira classes have downturned nacelles, but they are not the same ship.
Superman & HRHTheKING: do either of you know the history behind this design? It's not getting changed at this point.
If you want to make your own ship with upturned nacelles or whatever but incorporating aspects of this design, go for it. I'm sure Sean would be complimented. But this is the USS Titan.
Congrats on the news, BTW, Sean. What an honor. Do you get the model when they are done with the tour?

No, and it's not really a concern.
Never said it was going to be. I am simply offering a viewpoint on the design.
It may be the USS Titan (in a non-canon way, so it doesn't really count), but it's still fair game for opinions.

I don't know if I would get the model. If I did I am not sure where I would put a 6ft ship.
It kinda does now since CBS is involved and They ARE making the the Physical model. And John Eaves is making that model.
John Eaves is very involved with anything Trek, and the Director of Product Development at CBS (John Van Citters) was on the contest voting board.
That aside. I don't feel like defending my design all over again. So please give it a rest. I do respect your opinion,
but the design has been picked, it is now a published work.
Feel free to design your own variation on a theme.
It's still not canon. Whether Eaves is building a model or not. If it appears in a live-action TV show or movie and then Paramount say it's officially canon, then that's different.
I haven't denied that the design has been picked and published. But that doesn't mean it is free from being criticised.
CBS owns Trek.
That doesn't mean everything in a novel is automatically canon.
No Kidding, I have been over this issue for the last 2 Years.
Until this last week, "the Cannon not Cannon" issue has been over. Now it looks to be open again. Since they "CBS and Van Citters" plan to have Riker and the TITAN on screen in the future (Atleast that is what he told me in the email). So that means they are planning on pitching a series with this design. Nothing is set in stone, but the cannon issue is back open.
As for crits on my design, I have had plenty since the contest. So have at it. I have probably heard it already.

And when your ship is seen in an official live-action series, THEN it will be "canon". Until then, it isn't.
Chances are you'll be hearing it again if "Star Trek: Titan" makes it to the screen.
Dude just Drop it. I understand the whole cannon issue.
Fair enough.
As long as you understand "canon", then I'm happy.

So Sean, is there any chance of posting some pictures of the six-foot Titan model under construction??
