Very cool. In the second one did you mask the tree then distress the rest of the leather?

Thank you!

In the second one I pretty much just avoided the tree
when making the texture around it

Thank you! And yes, it does
The life of this tree is what holds the nine worlds together

No problem. I would love to use the Yggdrasil in some of my future works. I will try and create my own one first with Adobe Illustrator

You do that! Yggdrasil always have been one of my favourite motives.
Im gonna tattoo this wonderful tree one way or another sometime

Awesome. Where would you plan on putting that tattoo? I would love to get one of Mjolnir on one of my biceps.

MjΓΆlnir is awesome!

Thanks. For the Yggdrasil, will you be using these exact designs or do you have any other designs in mind?

Kraaku In reply to SkaldicArts [2012-05-20 23:32:06 +0000 UTC]

I havent really decided yet, Im thinking more realistic but I still want it to look like a celtic knot This is just a design I created for the use on these tests (:

You can remove them but I am still looking around for a sanitary place to get one. At lease to sterilize the needles.

Yggdrasil is not the same thing as the tree of life ... Yggdrasil is the tree on which the nine worlds are in the norse mythology and cosmology whereas the tree of life comes from the kabbalistic cosmology ... These two are far, far from being alike ...

Are you serious..?
Im sorry, but you make yourself look stupid.
Don't try to teach me about my own mythology when you obviously have no clue.

I'm Danish ... please ... x_x

Where the hell did you read that Yggdrasil was the tree of life ... ? It's the "World-tree", nothing to do with the tree of life ...

Well, come back when you'll have agruments confirming what you're saying. I'd love to see where you found such a stupid idea ^^

First time I heard that was probably as a child, later I learned it at school. Later I wrote it in my exams. And after that I read it in about twenty books. Go take your stupid discussions somewhere else.
