I want to try to make my own full sized map that looks as professional as I can make it. I need help with ideas on what I should make. I want it to also be pretty easy since it will be my first map.

We are getting more starships, but I still don't think we have enough. Make a large-ish single deck cargo ship.

Okay. I'll see what I can do.

One map that we don't have yet, which might be a challenge to do is a yuuzhan vong map. Either a terraformed plannet like yuuzhatar or the inside of one of their world ships. You make that, ill buy it.

Of the commercial maps, most of them are star ship interiors and city maps. Do we really need more?

How about more maps like the Rancor Cave or the Forrest Moon of Endor? We just need stuff with interesting terrain features. What about Kashyyyk? maybe a couple Kashyyyk maps. A beech landing map like in Star Wars Battlefront with shallow water/hindering terrain and low object berms for cover on the front lines, and then work your way up to some huts that have walls and doors and some low object windows to shoot from.

Then again, it looks like someone already has done something like that: http://www.theberserker.net/berserker/sw/pages/SW_maps_old.html

If not the Vong then how about:
The unknown world from KOTOR, a beach with crashed ships in the water.
Prison
Raxis Prime junk world
Dantooine or another map with a large bridge in the middle

Here's another vote for a Vong planet.

I Vang planet would be great. Or maybe Malchor.

These ideas all seem great, and maybe I'll try it out. The vong planet seems a little hard, but I'd be willing to try it once I make a couple of other maps. I'll also look into the other planets and terrain mentioned, but I'll start out with the cargo ship. I already have the planning done, and now I need to do artwork.

I know that Matt Francella is actually working on a before/after Coruscant/Yuuzhan'tar map.

If anyone wants a digital copy of the map to print off after I'm finished send me a bm, with your email and I'll send it to you in an attachment.

Since it's so rare, a redone version of the KotOR 2 Traya's academy would be pretty sweet.

This seems pretty good. I might do a keldabe market. Or maybe a back country shelter (Skirata place).
