Larger than life Viking Warlord

I web-ordered this Reaper figure thinking he would make a fun tongue-in-cheek Viking warlord for 'Saga', with his utterly ahistorical gear and over-the-top pose.

He turned out to be a little larger than I was expecting! Still, I enjoyed painting him and will shamelessly use him whenever I can.

I don't have a name for him- I was thinking of Larger Than Leif.

He's on a 40mm base. The foliage is Army Painter Poison Ivy- a little adds a lot. AT some point I plan to re-do his shield so it is more bone-coloured and less yellow.
