Description In Norse mythology, Fimbulvinter (or Fimbulvetr) is the harsh winter that precedes the end of the world and puts an end to all life on Earth. Fimbulvinter is three successive winters without any intervening summer. During this time, there will be innumerable wars and ties of blood will no longer be respected.
The title was inpired by Amon Amarth's "The arrival of Fimbul vinter" because, well, "Vigilant warrior and her two-headed dog" would be descriptive but rather boring.
That, and the fact that Amon Amarth songs are awesome.

My first thoughts are that she is MΓ³Γ°guΓ°r, and that is Garmr. ^-^ If I am mistaken, please correct me. Excellent work, I am a die-hard AA fan myself.

Actually, the Fimbulvinter theme was almost an afterthought and the characters had no name. But I really like your interpretation of the picture

I may have looked a bit too into it, hehe. Though your characters portrayed here fit the bill. I am a rabid student of Norse mythology, hehe.

Wow! Amazing work! Love it!

I was wandering if you could let me us this image for an Android game called "Kingdoms of Myth", it's turn based strategy game based on a fantasy World. You can find a little bit more info in this rough website made by my colleges [link] (Sorry for the bad English). Of course you will have full credits of your work and link to your webpage if you want

Lot of thanks for your time

The colouring of her face and armour is gorgeous! And let's not forget the details in the mountain peaks and the fog from their breathing Maybe if you can add a little more highlights to the dogs' eyes like you did for the woman, it'll be perfect

I thought about that but after looking at several pictures of dog's eyes I finally decided to dull their eyes to prevent a glassy look. I might try your suggestion, though. Highlights on human character's eyes are expected because that's were everybody will look first. Thanks for your comments!
