Thor’s Hammer

Sunday, November 2nd, 2013

Inspiration struck and I knocked out this little painting over the last few days.

I experimented with different media, oils, acrylic, colored pencil and ink … just let necessity be my guide and trying not to over think it ... I really liked the way it turned out!

I named the piece Mjolnir - Thor’s Hammer.

Here's the link to the gallery - Link ... and if anyone is interested in the original art, it's now on eBay - Link



Thanks, for all the comments & support!

This 100% badass. I had a Thor's hammer necklace, but it fell down a vent.

I really like this style of background" it enhances the figure and hammer in movement

This is excellent work. That shield looks heavier than both Thor and Mjolnir combined!
