Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)
The example map I will be using for the upcoming revision annual for this style will be based on this city, which I have been asked to do.
I will aim to use all the drawing tools.
I will also go step by step through the process, so you can all comment (and correct) as I go.
And for fun, here is a picture from the JSON export, to show a 3D version. Who knows, perhaps one day, we can work out a method to export the 3D versions to CC3+!!!

Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)
Here is a revised version of the Drawtools. so far, they all work with the Change Like Draw Tool command, including the towers and fields, which was not the case in the original watabou annual.
A bit more work needed on the effects to get it all to my satisfaction, but I think the drawing tools are now ready to go.
I guess the next step is to do an example map.
I need to work out how to revise the scaling of the Hatch files, and how to make sure they are imported into the style, so people can access them if they need to alter the dimensions etc

Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)
The final step is adding all the extra bits and pieces - forests and trees, wetlands, roads and squares and city backgrounds, hills and contours, maybe extra buildings, buildings and towers on top of one another, even a gatehouse to replace the open walls in some places. And text and scale and compass, of course.
Here it is, partly completed.

I will post my revision of the Templates and Drawing tools later on. Unless @Ralf thinks that would violate the ProFantasy agreement. They will be titled Annual Watabou City QW, to distinguish them from the official version, and they will also have their own Drawing Tools and bitmaps - again, drawn from existing CC3+ bitmaps - hence I will await to hear what Ralf says before posting.
But they will fix the problem with the present annual, given all the developments in the watabou city generator since that annual came out.

FT3 to CC3+ as per recent Live Mapping Tutorial
I was really impressed with this video, as it has made things a lot easier for me to translate FT3 world to s CC3+ style I like. Thanks Ralf.
In my example below, I have decided to translate a FT3 section to a Pete Fenlon Style (revisited), but I have also used the rivers that were created in the FT3 map.
Here is the FT3 map:
Here is the translation to Pete Fenlon, and it was SO easy. Again, thanks Ralf.
Obviously not completed.
Here is an insert.
