Hi guys, here is my interpetation of a viking chief with me with a historically correct made Gjermundbu helmet the only helmet from the viking era ever found here in Norway, the mail shirt is correctly made with rivited rings, the sword is a reproduction of the Åkra sword found near me here in Haugesund
The shield is based on the shields found in the Gokstad ship grave, the broadaxe is a copy of the Langeid axe, I’m sitting on a norwegian horsebreed called «Dølshest» or farmhorse

Hope you guys like it

Joakim Steinsn,

Looking phenomenal! Well done! Skal! Especially points for historical acccuracy with the riveted byrnie and all the other correct points for holistic efficacy. The horse, the hard and soft kit of your panoply etc., etc., etc. Bravo! Valhalla awaits!

:cool:

Best regards,

Barrett Hiebert
