Wanted to draw his face from the front...and...well, due to some fandom crack, ended up with no jerkin on. Basically, the same giant as here: fav.me/d4hukz0 from this series: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chro… .

I know they don't wear horned helmets.
The misconception arises from 20th century grave findings when the excavators mistook the drinking horns for helmet decorations. Thereafter it just became a cliché. Neither were the Vikings ungroomed boors (as the stereotype dictates), but coned their hair, bathed, and trimmed their beards regularly.
Also, Saltheart's not wearing a helmet but a traditional Baltic-Finnic stiff cloth cap called patalakki.
