...here is a drawing that has been sitting on my desk in sketch form for a month, and I finally made time to finish it up.
It illustrates the Norse Myth of JORMUNGANDR, a Midgard worm so huge that it encircles the entire Earth with its tail in its mouth. ...what.....Ever! Anyway, the Thunder God THOR sets off to try and catch it, but fails. ..so there ya go. Hope you like, my friends.....
Thor always carrys a lightning enchanted 1-handed mace or hammer, as his prefered weapon. its name is Mjølner - (pronounced : M]joel'ner), and its said to return to his hand, whenever he throws it. and never to miss its target.
Thor is the god of thunder and lightning, in norse mythology. and proberly the fierces and strongest of all the gods of Valhalla (the name of the city in the sky's, were all the "Asher gods" live) the city is connected to midgard (the world of mortal men) via the bridge called "Bifrost", withs is, in old legends, the rainbow.
Thor is married to the fair maiden Sif, who were a Sigrid, (the norse word for a mounted valkyrian/amazon, or directly translated "female rider")
Thor liked to gamble, and wedge stackes, and the story of Thor's fight with the midgard-worm, is a result of a bet he had with Utgards-Lokie, who is the chieftain of the Yettish trolls. later in the story the midgard-worm is transformed into a cat, and Thor bets with Utgards-Lokie, weather or not he is able to lift the cat from the floor, and after much struggle and lifting he manage to lift one of the cats feet from the floor.
i might have put a dragon's head at the bow of Thor's ship - maybe have it snarling at the evil worm as your gallant God tries to kill it for all manking

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!

Think the maidens would sing
When you be at the bottom of the sea?'
'What bestail monter you be?
Who cannot be slain by sword or spear?'
'I be Migard, Jormungander!'
'I be Thor, God of Thunder! Storm to my aid, return this beast to the bottom of the sea!'
