"Fenrir's Brood" here's an illustration I did that represents the 3 main Wolves of Ragnarok. Inspired by my love for Norse Mythology and Culture.
This artwork shows Fenrir breaking free of Gleipnir, while Hati and Sköll swallow the sun and moon!
Norse Mythology is so metal from its beginnings to its end I freaking love it! 🤘
I hope y'all enjoy this piece as much as I did creating it!

In preparing the figurine of my paternal line great-ancestor I think I came up with a figure that today's post-industrial lawyers can put on the desk as an alternative to the the Greek goddess Themis... Sculpture is supposed to represent the descendant of the Ingaevones tribe (in my case: R1a-Z289 > R1a-YP694 > ...), who left the Jutland Peninsula around 800 AD, so the figure has a medieval hood, holds dane axe and a boar-crested helmet is only crossed.
Figure in medieval costume with scales and danish axe, stepping over a boar-crested helmet...

The so-called "Valkyrie of Hårby" is a remarkable three-dimensional depiction of a woman holding a sword and shield discovered in 2012. It is thought to date to around 800 CE and was found on the island of Funen in Denmark.
