I certainly didn't mean to imply otherwise, and thought I said as much. Not plainly enough perhaps, but I agree and know from personal experience like yourself that it's not easy.Originally posted by Ron Vutpakdi:
I feel obligated to point out that it can be a real pain to try and draw deckplans which fit an external view drawing. The drawing may look fine and all, but when trying to lay out a deckplan to match, I've sometimes found that the apparent proportions, size and the layout make the actual deckplans really difficult to do if the drawing wasn't done to appropriate volumes calculated.

But I also know it can be done. And again from personal experience that once done and then found wrong can be a devil to correct. This was just such an easy enough error to make, but the only easy way to fix it is change the exterior view of the profile by 200% vertically. It looks a lot like the Guppy or other heavy lift air-transport (c 20thC Earth) then, which is not too bad, just not in keeping with the art, which includes some very nice 3D images out there on the web too.
