for proto-s-wiebic:
π πλ τ τλ τς ρ κ μπ μπλ ντ ντλ ντς νρ γκ /p pl t tɬ tɕ ʈʂ k b bl d dɮ dʑ ɖʐ g/
what about a GVS (əy > ii > ay > əə > aa > ee and əw > uu > au > oo) in open syllables and another vowel shift (ii ee ay əy)(uu oo aw əw) in closed syllables?
φ φλ θ θς σ χ μφ μφλ νθ νθς νσ γχ /pʰ pʰl tʰ tɕʰ ʈʂʰ kʰ bʰ bʰl dʰ dʑʰ ɖʐʰ gʰ/
iw > iə and uy > uə as i had before
ψ ξ νψ γξ ς /s ʂ z ʐ ç/
this is still pre-s-wiebic
λ /ɬ/
(inspired by your first draft of zoomic)
ϋ β δ μ ν νλ γ /f v ɣ m n nl ŋ/
consonant shift: actually, should i use grimm's law for this one and keep ejectives for myuftseezh?

I'll have to do something with laryngeals - but what
maybe they become breathy voice which makes breathy voiced plosives
ha:tɬiχ > ha:tɬə̤ > ha:dɮʰə
(the vowel shift should depend on the laryngeal)
 
i love the breathy voice idea
btw I should have more clusters in PM since Dry Icelandic (geminates), Myuftseezh (big clusters) and S-Cuatham (clicks) rely on them
