    Default Maps for COLONIAL TROOPERS

    I co-designed a sci-fi RPG a few years back called Colonial Troopers. An homage to Starship Troopers, Alien, Aliens, 50's sci-fi in general, and a teeny tiny bit of Dune. I'm now working on a sequel to it, well, it's pretty much done, just finishing up the layout and maps. Here are some of the Spacestation maps I've drawn for it.

    Map

    Here is the largest spacestation map. The style is intentionally very graphic, clean, and bold.

    These look great! This last set is my favourite, I definitely prefer them without the over painting though.

    I love the verticality of the space stations, that's something you don't usually see in sci-fi, but there are some really interesting shapes there !

    Some of the ships I drew for the book. Working on some deck plans, I'll post some of those maps when they're done.
