Well I had a fatal error while working on the previous star ship deck plan and corrupted my file (and I shut off the auto save function, which kind of screwed me). So I've decided to create an entirely new deck plan, as I hate to do the same work twice. This one I'm calling a Thunderbird class 700 ton Heavy Corsair star ship (I upped the design a 100 tons, to accommodate more crew and cargo space.) This one I turned the auto-save back on, so not to have the issue I did on my last deck.
I"m almost finished having created exterior hull, top deck interior, lower deck interior, boarding cutter (ship's boat) deck plan, and a version of the lower deck without the boarding cutter in its bay and the clam shell cargo doors open on the ground. Then for my Stock Armada (stock maps for small publishers product line) I have to create 3 alternate versions of the main, lower decks and the cutter deck: blue color scheme, rust bucket version and a battle damaged version. These will be saved at 11 x 17 (30% scale) 300 dpi, layered PSD files. Also creating full scale 100 dpi layered PDF version, sliced maps (printable at 8.5 x 11, cut off white margins and tape together to make whole map) at 100 dpi JPG, and both JPG and PNG files for virtual tabletop and sold under my Gamer Printshop publisher account at DrivethruRPG.
Almost done, currently working on the battle damaged versions...
