I’m always looking for interesting places to stretch my fins on the grid, and I want you to come along too!

I forgot who passed this LM along to me a while back, I think it was ColeMarie, but there’s a nice underwater area in the Hobbit Nature Preserve (I did not see any hobbits, however). You can’t really tell from the surface, it’s a psychedelic mermaid playground underneath.

See what I mean? Granted, I did some color adjustment, but there are a lot of glowy plants and rocks with wild textures.

Make sure you look out for this cave. I love its texture. I wish the entire sim floor were coated in this. Looks so wet and shiny! Oooooh! I want to touch it! Mermaids love to touch. It really bothers me when you have a lovely underwater area with lots of interesting things, but then a boring, default sand ground texture.

The LM won’t land you right at the intended spot, due to the region setting, but just follow the red beacon on your map and you’ll be there soon enough.
