Description
Because I have always loved norse myths, and I've now been reading Edda, I managed to draw a different kind of Loki. I just love trying (and failing) to make my Lokis appear Hiddles-ish, so I had to try it with this one too.
Sorry about the bad quality, I don't have a scanner.
In myths Loki is, from what i understand, usually a redhead. And that is a beautiful thing. Red contrasts well with green and gold, so I kept those colours even though they are now shown in more viking-styled clothing. Not that much of his clothes are visible, but green and gold anyway.
And I like runes, so if you want to read what the background says (mainly just different names for Loki and his relatives that I found and made up) you should be able to do it with a little help from the internet, even though I must say that the paper ends a bit too soon for all of the text to be visible and Loki himself, too, is in the way. It begins with "Loptr Laufeysson", in case you were wondering. I find it curious that Loki is always referred to with a matronym - Laufey is his mother - when other gods and beings in the myths have patronym names.
No copying, thanks.

Very nice!
Especially the runes, I love runes.
Loki looks thoughtful. I wonder what's on his mind there?
