It sounds like a real good peice, but will he be true to the legends? E.i: lost one eye, have two ravens, and have a true viking helmet and not one of those stupid horned ones they\'re always shown in... The artist may have to go back and read all the myths again, just to be sure, because even I\'ve forgot what he is supposed to look like. :p

Odin...

Odin had a spear named Grungir which never missed its mark and a bow which unleashed ten arrows with every pull. He also owned a magic ring called Draupnir which created nine of itself every night. It was this ring that Odin laid on his son Balder\'s funeral pyre and which Balder returned to Odin from the underworld. Another one of Odin\'s prized possesions was his wonderful steed named Sleipnir which had eight legs.

I\'d like to see the mini of that horse.

Evil Dave,
I would like to do it on the horse but most likely he will be on foot with his 2 ravens((Hugin and Munin)) ..the sculptor says we can use the torso for a conversion if we like ...sleipner would be awesome tho I agree..draupnir is the rings name..and Gungnir the massive spear..I think the popularity of this mini would be very good but always nice to get feeback from our prospective buying public.

It\'s nice to hear people who doesn\'t think all norse gods look like fur-clad bodybuilders from the eighties... Oh the horror...

I look forward to seeing the finished mini...:)

Seer,
yes he will be made most likely holding his giant spear of his shoulder while one raven sits there..another raven on his arm..while his right leg is propped up on a giants head..should eb quite a nice piece
