Hi, I wonder if you could make something like a big fortress of ice and stone.
The architecture like Windhelm with like a big ice wall on it's perimeter (I got the idea from song of ice and fire)
Big but not too big maybe 3 floors and a basement, something like a storage vault with mannequins and chests and an area for smithing, crafting and enchantment in the basement.
Also a player bedroom in maybe a central tower.
I want a cold, dark and brooding feeling around the place that's why I chose the mountainous Winterhold or East March area and call it War Stone Keep
If this could be done I'd appreciate it, my attempts at it were horrible failures.
@Xarcaz: -I appreciate the thoughts, and plan on adding more aesthetic things in a future release. -I did realize that the open fire was a bit of a stretch, but this game isn't very realistic anyway -The model for the inside of the ship is a direct fit for the outside of the ship. They are meant to be used together.
@FlyingElephant: My current thoughts (constructive criticism): Like Jaz3600 said, a better and more lore-friendly name might be good. And it's a bit too big on the inside (compared to the exterior), has too many stone objects (stone table, stone anvil, etc), a forge and another open fire on a wooden boat seems pretty unrealistic unless it's for suicidial seadogs, and the crates on the "roof" would fall into the water at the slighest wave, and some of the open spaces in general could need some smaller details to make it feel less open and empty, IMHO. But I like it.

Thanks in advance if this is possible
Cool ideas. I'm working on making the ship more natural. If I have time, the quest would be good.
In general, I really appreciate all of the ideas to improve the ship.
You should take a look at some old sailing ships and build your own meshes and textures.
For example:

Yeah .. I know. Hell of a work and even I have absolutely no idea how to do that. But it would be so freaking cool.
And additionaly with some bonebreaking quest to obtain it (need to slay 20 dragons first or whatsoever ... )
Just a bit of brainstorming .. nevermind.

No, it stands for Sail Ship
MS for Motor Ship
A steam ship would go under the MS category.
