Description This is a character design of Svein of the White Horse. He is a character in a series of books that I'm reading right now called the Saxon Tales by Bernard Cornwell. I found so many of Bernard's Viking characters so intriguing that I had to draw one out in the form of a character design. I hope you enjoy...if you read the books and my version is fighting the one you imagined in your head - sorry.

Svein of the White Horse is the property of Bernard Cornwell.

Awesome, just finished reading it. I imagined him as blonde, but to each his own

Awesome! I'm halfway through "The Pale Horseman" myself. Now I'm going to tie Svein in the book with this picture.

Bernards stuff is amazing! Yeah, when we read, we get an image uniquely our own...I pretty much followed what I could from the book - white cloaks, white horse-hair plume, helm with eye piecce, etc. Thanks for the feed back. I've been working on more stuff and it will be in the same vein, som come back soon!

Splendid piece .
I have read this book and I must admit it's not exactly like I imagine this character.
But you have put a face on a name and it's great .
An really great picture .
