This painting took me approxmately 6 months to do. I foolishly started it while i still had class, therefore, for a good month and a half i couldnt work on it at all. But i finally came over finishing it, and i must say i am quite proud of my rendering of Yggdrasil, Muninn and Huginn. I never painted birds before, especially that close, and i am quite satified with the detailed results ^^
So yeah, this painting started as a dedication to Yggdrasil - its still the biggest 'character' - but if youre as versed in norse myths than i, youll soon see that the birds are quite present as well, and therefor, Oden is equally reprensented here.
You may see the warrior as him, or not. its not very important i think... Oden took on so many shapes....
As usual, the picture is not so great, once i get someone with a good camera willing to picture all my stuff under a good light, be assured i wont hesitate!
well... im done with my rambling, i hope you like it.
and here some details
