Description For 's contest

I drew the wolf Fenrir from North mythology, who was imprisonned by the Gods because he was becoming too big and powerful. They binded him and thrust a sword in his mouth. The saliva that poured from it created a river called "Van" wich mean hope in old Norse.

The challenge was to use only three colors: gray, pink and turquoise. No black nor white.

Edit: Yaay, I finished first with the popular vote! Thank you very much to everyone who's voted for my drawing, there was a lot of beautiful works!
- And thumbs up as well to my two friends who have also participated: and ( his scary horse has won the first place with the panel of judges)

Actually the sword wasΒ placed into his mouth with the hilt against its lower jaw and the point in the upper one; to gag him

I feel sorry for Fenrir, he didn't actually do anything wrong before he was bound

gotta say i'm a big fan of myths but Fenrir has to be the most badass, you did a great job with this.

Yeah, Fenrir may be more known for his ravage at Ragnarok?

Pink would work well, as he had a sword in his mouth, it would make sens for the river to be formed from his blood as well.

Hey you can try Fenrir anyway, I'm sure it won't be the same!
With an other story, like you know, when he freed himself for Ragnarok?

PS: don't worry, I'm French so...english mistakes are not something I see right away! ^^

Beautiful mix of gray and color. I love how you placed runes on he chains, and Fenrir's expression is great. He's ready to bite Tyr's hand off
