I would like to claim this, because I do love coastal claims, and it's the only remaining exclusively Ash Swamp exterior. I look forward to seeing what I can do with the bit where Ash Swamp meets the sea.

Granting, make sure to include all the traits and stuff from this region, a thorough explanation is given in the linked thread in the description. River and Isra Nium.

The river does not have the ash scum surface btw, only the numerous tributaries and ponds as per the concept I made.

I'm pretty busy with getting coursework finished for the end of the academic year, but here's what I have so far.

Claim updated. Added a fair amount this time, including a small collection of shacks northwest of Isra Nium, and another singular ruined stilt-shack that sunk into the muck. All in all this claim is starting to come together rather nicely :)

I've been looking at it a little, and have a few thoughts:

- The brownish vertex coloring looks odd, and will stand out compared to the grey one we've used for the other ash swamp claims. Please use grey.
- At slopes, the TR_terrain_rocks_RM_02 and 04 looks better than 01 and 03. For consistency's sake I suggest using a few of those as I so far haven't spotted any.
- The north tip of the peninsula looks a little boring, could you add a few rock+trama+mushroom+fungus-y formation to enhance the area making it more interesting and a point of interest, something eye catching. As of now it's just flat...
- No mushrooms in the murky pools. Only ash swamp tree and trama roots. For consistency.
- Border match with 5-27, you will see what you need to do :) .
- TR_ash_fungus_01-04, use it hanging from stuff, as you can see in 5-21 and 5-27. I see it near the little village though.
- Isra Nium looks fine, watch out for jagged edges in the landscaping.

Remember to download similar regional claims, we don't want to spend valuable time changing claims to make them consistent.

Haha, indeed. Somehow Cat's claim appears to have a Solstheim region applied to it. I got interrupted by wolves, too.

I can see a few lone werewolves wandering around northern M5. Certainly no big packs or elaborate questlines revolving around them though. If we want to discuss this more I suggest we take it to the lore and quest forum.

I want to say no. Unless there's a good reason for them being there.

Are there werewolves in Skyrim?

Both werewolves and bears. The boars were probably not in that area though. Of course, I might misremember.

Claim updated. Added an awesome shipwreck and a host of other things I can't remember.

You need to take the detailing further out than that. I like the detailing you did do, but there's still a really ridiculous looking border there way too close to shore. It doesn't look natural at all.

You might as well fill those whole cells up and vary the details going out to sea. Intersperse patches of lava rock amongst the sand to place rock statics on maybe.

Undersea exterior work is some of the most mind-numbingly annoying things ever. It generally is easier because your ref count can be a lot lower, but its still fucking annoying.

There, seafloor detailed out as far as I am intending to go with it. Hopefully this is fine.
