A Bit of Viking with Morgan's ArtWorld

It's challenge time at Morgan's ArtWorld and "ANYTHING GOES" for you to join in the fun.  I love spending time coloring and there are so many wonderful images to choose.  I had used only the central image of this digital and I loved how it turned out, but this time I went for the whole image.  This image is so defined and so well sketched.  I can't say enough about it.

The black panel was created by stamping Hero Arts white unicorn ink onto a black shiny paper using a Hero Arts stamp from a few years back "Chalk Background". This was the second stamping, the first stamping delivers more white to the background.  I thought the darker background complemented the image better.

I colored the central image's hair in warm grays, while focusing on metal with the cool grays.
