Story
After breaking away from the scourge and obtaining their freedom, a horde of skeletons has escaped to an uninhabited island. Now, years later, a war has broken out and three factions must battle for supremacy. Unfortunately, the scourge has tracked down these last remaining Forsaken and seek to destroy them for their betrayal as well.

I'm looking for a terrainer to help finish and polish existing terrain for this map project. The map is 192x192 Northrend tileset and follows the same general gameplay theme as "Island Troll Tribes." Players will select one out of 5 - 7 main classes of skeleton-heroes, each with a different set of abilities and strengths/weaknesses, and battle to be the last team standing. To assist each team's efforts, items will be randomly distributed around the map which may be combined to create buildings, defenses, weapons, and a variety of other things.

Credit will be in the form of being listed as the primary Terrain designer in the loading screen and quest credits.

Terrain is currently about half done:



So the first priority is to finish the other half of the current terrain.
The second main issue would be to evaluate the terrain I've already completed to improve it.

Terrain and doodads fall into two main categories for this map: Snowy and Scourged (You can see both in the following screenshot)



This map also involves quite a bit of water-pathing and shallow-water in between islands and whatnot (most is already done, examples follow)

Updated with a little more info, what else is needed, do you think?

Read. The. Rules. They are there for a reason.

And for your information, screenshots != information.

You need to expand a bit on this last part; what is the map like. You already explain well enough what the assigment is, now spend another paragraph or two on what makes this map special; something to convince a terrainer to take this assigment on.

Edit: this should do.

I think I could do this. I'll talk about it all later, have to go now.
