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: [link] from this series: [link] .
So he's not your sparkly-warkly prettyboy with that Neanderthal brow and bulky frame, but who cares. Bloody awesome and complex character nevertheless.

Burly men are better looking than pretty boys any day.

Jälleen kertakaikkiaan ihastuttavaa työtä! 
Suuresti ylpeänä suomalaisuudesta oon kyllä tosi mieltynyt siihen kuinka tuot näihin hahmoihin tätä Suomen ja pohjoismaiden kansantarujen näköä ja tuntua!

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.
