    The best ship map I know of comes from hieronymos on Discord.



    Who posts this quote on the process:
    a) ship decks are surprisingly blunt
    b) you wanna make ships, scour the internet for model plans to give you accurate proportions and you've already won, everything thereafter is just pure routine and polishing
    c) retrace the walls with a pattern on the outside to simulate the expanding hull of the ship. Makes it look so much more 3D
    I know he spent a very long time making sure this ship was accurate to the model he was recreating in DungeonDraft. I don't think he's here and I don't know if he has a portfolio as it's not listed in his Discord profile.

    So if you want someone who's making maps currently and this EJ Reed isn't, maybe you should shoot him a DM on Discord!

    Default Well..

    While that is definitely a pretty rendition of a ship from the top down, the water seen through every open access to the lower deck and the sails that prevent use as an actual map makes me much more interested in the other suggestion of the previous poster.

    I don't know if they hang out here but there is a mapper called Limithron who has done quite a few ship maps ...
    Not sure if they would be open to a commission to adapt any, but you might find one or a variation of one that works for you
