Adobe CS5
Just got Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium, So far I am loving the Perspective tool in Illustrator. Now I just need to sit down and learn all of the other programs in the suite, like Dreamwave, Indesign and the newest Version of Flash.

U.S.S. Titan 1/1400 Scale Model...
Okay for all you fans of my Luna Class/ U.S.S. Titan out there. Starcraft Models is currently in the processof making a 1/1400 scale 12.77" long model of my design. He is working directly off of my schematics and Ellery Connells' 3D Images. So far it is looking great. I can't wait to get a hold of one of the early test builds.
Here is a link to the forum where it is posted. Starship Modeler = http://www.starshipmodeler.net/talk/viewtopic.php?t=85287&start=0
Here is a link to his build photos PhotoBucket = http://s995.photobucket.com/albums/af79/StarcraftModels/Titan/
This will make my titan complete from concept to model, to it's appeareance in Star Trek Online.
WOW!!!

Hello there...
My name is Sean Tourangeau. I am offically jumping into the world of blogging. I am not usually one to blog, but I figured I would finally start up a Worldpress site. From time to time I will post new art and little tid bits of info from my life. Hopefully this will work for me. Thanks and Hello out there.

U.S.S. Titan and Hello
I realise this is old news to people that have been following me on devianart,scifi meshes, & facebook, but since this blog is new
I thought I would post images from what I am up to this point most known for. Here are images from my little corner of the Start Trek Universe...The U.S.S. Titan.
From Simon & Schuster:
The Ship:U.S.S. Titan, NCC-80102, Luna-class. The Titan is a midsize Starfleet vessel, approximately 450 meters in length (larger than the U.S.S. Voyager, smaller than the Enterprise-D), with a crew complement of 350. Titan's hull configuration is comparable to other established Starfleet vessels.
The Luna-class is Starfleet's newest-generation long-range explorer, a starship not built specifically for combat, but like the Constitution-class of the previous century, a vessel designed for a long-term multipurpose mission into uncharted space. Equipped with conventional tactical systems (deflector shields; phasers; quantum torpedoes), Titan also boasts state-of-the-art propulsion and cutting-edge scientific equipment, as well as being a testbed for experimental science tech not yet available on other classes.
The Titan is manned by the most varied multispecies crew in Starfleet history, with humans taking up less than 15% of the 350-member crew. The diversity of the crew is intended to facilitate stories that will explore the ways that beings of different cultures, biologies, psychologies, and physical appearances learn how to work together, or fail to, depending on the circumstances they encounter. Titan has eight shuttlecraft of various sizes.
The story behind the Luna-class:The Luna-Class Development Project was initiated in 2369 in response to the discovery of the Bajoran wormhole, and originally conceived as leading a planned Starfleet wave of deep-space exploration in the Gamma Quadrant. The project was spearheaded by Dr. (Commander) Xin Ra-Havreii, a Starfleet theoretical engineer at Utopia Planitia. Field testing on the prototype U.S.S. Luna was under way by 2372 in the Alpha Quadrant, and construction of the fleet was scheduled to begin the following year. Unfortunately, contact with the Dominion and the subsequent outbreak of hostilities mothballed the project indefinitely, as Starfleet redirected its shipbuilding resources to the production of vessels better suited to combat.
Upon the war's end in late 2375, Dr. Ra-Havreii correctly judged that the Federation's cultural psychology would eventually shift back toward its pre-war ideals, and pushed to have the Luna-class revisited as a major step toward resuming Starfleet's mission of peaceful exploration (even though the class would no longer be assigned exclusively to the exploration of the Gamma Quadrant). Construction of an initial fleet of twelve Luna-class vessels was completed by 2379, and the Titan was offered to William T. Riker, one of many command officers eager to put the strife of the last decade behind him.

Q : What are your feelings about the Titan starship design by Sean Tourangeau and the Sword of Damocles cover art by Ellery O'Connell ? (His Name I actually Ellery Connel
My feelings about Sean's design can be summed up in one word. GENIUS. There was some groussing about his design from some quarters just after the contest was over but, for me, this is the only way TITAN could have looked. Sean got the era of design right, I think he incorporated the Luna class mission of pure exploration perfectly. Wouldn't change a thing. The cover is equally stellar. And I may have a surprise or two for Sean in SWORD OF DAMOCLES as well. I hope he'll forgive any dings to the hull.
