📋 About This Mod
MANHOLE OF SOLITUDE
In the continuing series of manhole retexture mods, I give you this lore-friendly edition. The symbol of Solitude emblazoned on the manhole cover. Yes, this has become a popular joke on Nexus, but I decided to try a more serious take on the default Solitude manhole cover texture. It seemed only fitting that the wolf head symbol be incorporated into the metal work of the city. The manhole cover seemed a logical place.
I made several sizes, to accommodate most people. There's a 2K diffuse and 2K normal map version, a 2K/1K version, a 1K/1K version, and lastly for lower-end users, a 1K/512 version.
I hope you enjoy this little addition to Skyrim.
