Community Atlas - Kristen Traneuk's Villa
Here is a map, taken from Watabou mansions.

I used both the 3D (Italian style) saved as a PNG; and plan version saved as SVG, then converted into DXF and imported into CC3+. All five floors are imported as one file.
It took me 25 minutes, which for a first time go is pretty good.

Somehow the mix between modern image and old floor plan seems to work quite nicely. Maybe its the colours of the image - the way they are relatively pastel.
All this work would not be possible without the overheard conversations at Mar-et-Lago from an orange haired hero telling all his guests the state secrets of how to do this immensely intricate operation, codenamed OPERATION MANSION.
The bottom line - it is amazingly easy, just adapting the technique given in the marvellous Watabou City issue by Ralf.
BTW, I just can't seem to help my Aussie dry 'sarcasm'. Sorry everyone, I will NEVER do this again, till tomorrow.
I'll export to svg and go from there.
Since Tran is not in the name of the star I did some investigation and discovered a cartographer that came from Transylvania. His name was Johannes Honter. He lived from 1498 to 1549. He was known for his cosmography work and was also an author. I'm probably way off though. LOL.
The mansion generator looks cool, but it is a bit too fond of large overhangs, and it often comes up with rather weird connections. Very few look like a "normal" mansion, i.e. something someone would actually build.
Here is the third floor and 3D picture complete. All vector except the trees and clouds from Alyssa Faden Style.
Now I have the roofs and stairs to my liking, I will be able to do the rest fairly quickly.
I would appreciate critical comments and suggestions, and bask in any compliments
I just have one little nitpick. The roof ridges seem to extend a tiny bit too far in places.
