Live Mapping: 1930s Floorplans
Hi everyone! :D
This week in our Live Mapping session, Ralf will be completing his 1930s Travel Guide series by creating a floorplan in the Baedeker-inspired style.
You can watch it right here on the forum, but you would be most welcome coming along to join in the chat, live on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TH69okYSPQw

Do any styles have East European Symbols?
There are onion domes in the City Domes issue of the 2018 annual if you want domes to add to other styles. They're based on Saint Basil's Cathedral in Moscow. There are also plainer onion domes from other East European churches in that set.
The rooftops are pretty complex, but if you want to make complex roof shapes the House tool is your friend. It depends on how much detail you want to get into and how much time you want to spend on each building.

Blending with background not working as (I expect?) it should
You will almost certainly do better if you don't use the parchment background, but at the same time sheet effects will be applied to the dashes themselves rather than the edges of the polygon, so you may need to make the background white. That will work if your blend mode is set to multiply, as the white will vanish.
