David, you have done a beautiful job on this. Could you share your hair/beard mix as it is a very convincing job. This guy looks like he is about to say something!

Have very recently seen this finished figure and not only is the casting superb but Dave has done a wonderful job in painting it. His choice of the green works very well and the vikings face and hair are an inspiration to any painter.
Anyone going to Euro, this is one to watch out for. Great Job
