So, I started on this. It's a strange conversion: most of the set is so freeform that making it TLX doesn't make sense. The textures are modern wwg, so they fit with the tlx stuff with no change unlike the older stuff that I have looked at converting like mars outpost and himmelveil harbourmaster.
Thus far, I've made all the swampworks terrain into 6x6 tlx tiles, and made 6x6 transitions from swampworks murky water to himmelveil harbour style water. These look nice in my opinion. I need to add anchors and make some 3x6 and 3x3 tiles, but basically that stuff is done. Just have to print it up and look at it outside of graphical mockups.
Looking at the round houses, I don't see how it'd be logical to do any TLX conversion there. They're not meant to be square nor to fit on a grid. I'd leave them as-is. What I might do is make some alternate TLX-style "longhouse" walls and things using the same swampy look... still debating quite how to make the roofs work. I think I'd release that as a separate kitbash, though. Also thinking some half-height spiky fence/walls would be appropriate for the style. Anything else people think would be useful and important?
EDIT: Did a quick 6" wall. Easier than I thought it'd be. If I can make a nice post, I'll probably make the whole longhouse plus some arc walls.
