Starship Deckplans

Does anyone know of good Internet sources for starship deck plans? I'm not too concerned with what game setting they're modeled for (Star Wars, Traveller, Star Trek, etc), rather, I'm specifically looking for deck plans for smaller ships, such as shuttles, scouts, traders/merchants, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Frank Bonura's deckplans are THE premier Star Wars deckplans resource. A few of the ships are to recognizably SW to be suitable for porting to other settings, but a few might suit you. And these are mostly small craft.

In a Silver Age-style 4-color superhero genre, odds are good that the villains aren't stone-cold killers or maniacs who put the characters in the sort of situation where it's kill-or-be-killed, or are the Joker-type who break out every 3 months and kill a building full of people each time they do. They're nutjobs who want to take over the world by selling a popular new brand of soda that has mind control fluid in it, or hold the world hostage with their weather control beam, or whatever. You fly over in your spandex, beat up their henchmen, free people from their mind control with some Hostess Fruit Pies, punch the villain in the jaw and take him to jail. -Yorak

The Journal of the Traveller's Aid Society has a bunch of deckplans, some as full colour 25mm scale tiled PDFs. If you search their archives, you may be able to see some samples:
eg: http://jtas.sjgames.com/sample.cgi?319

JTAS is by subscription, though, so if you don't play Traveller, it may not be worth the money.

There's a bunch of free deckplans here:

Deck plans

below is a link to a webring that is dedicated to Traveller deck plans. Some cool stuff there, especially some of the sites where people have done digital images of the ships.

While I was doing the art for Spaceship Zero I actually got a lot of inspiration from nasa.gov - they have some incredibly cool real life blueprints there. I learned a lot!

Great links. Thanks.

I'd just like to take a moment to mention how much Star Trek sites peeve me off.

Good navigation goes right out the window in a geek orgy of doubletalk.

I'd like to go to the home page, not "Hail Starfleet Headquarters".
I'd like to visit the gallery page, not "Cross transmogify the tachyon field."
I'd like to got the links page not "Snort synth-coke off Admiral Kxlx's Ovipositor."

Oh yeah, and I'll make the page look like Next Gen computer screens! That's a fresh idea!

Frickin' morons.

Even the Star Wars link above. Folks will want to see practical catagories, for instance merchant vessels, fighters, capital ships etc., not Booboogooboo Inc.

Sorry for the rant. Again, thanks for the links.
