In MY version of Nordic Mythology... Volsung Shyfter is sired by Odin and given to Loki as a gift/reward for his loyalty when he is sworn as Odin's brother. Volsung is to be Loki's protector and companion. Loki raises him as best he could, but cannot love him well... especially when the great wolf Fenrir - Loki's son by blood - is born. While as the ages passed Loki becomes bitter and resentful of the gods 'misunderstanding' of him, Volsung does not. He's always the good guy! ;) Later, when the end is nigh, he becomes torn between his duty to protect Loki, and his loyalty to his creator - Odin. Blah blah blah!

You did a really great job on this one! I like the way the fur looks. He looks really cuddly in a vicious flesh eating sort of way. Bravo!

:-) Frances Gibbs replies: "lol. Thanks!"

It looks like a badger to me. Cool fur, and nice teeth. What is it? I like the streak of blue too.

:-) Frances Gibbs replies: "Thanks. Its a weirdly-coloured wolf. "

Nice. The markings sort of remind me of a badger.

:-) Frances Gibbs replies: "Thanks. Yeah, it does look kind of badgerish, eh?"

i agree with the one above me.. it looks like a badgar... it is the fact that his head is big, and his nose is short... but other than that.. i can see it.. ::used to be big time into Norse Myth::
