Description In school, whe had a big project on viking art, and we had to make a jewlery/belt bucle with inspiration from their art.

Carved in wax. somedoy broke mine so the end result seems very bad compared to what it could have been but alteast i have this.

the edge is made of a dragon's body and head. it is biting its own tail, holding ra, the sun god, inside him. the letters on his five hard body parts spell out aaron in a language called d'ni, (non viking, its from a game) and ra is written on the sun. 5 is a holy number (in d'ni) , wich is why i used it, aswll as my sign signature has five arms...

Great piece of work, but like Ugrik im confused as to how the Egyptian sun god Ra has any place in Viking art? Maybe you got confused or something, stuff like that happens alot with all those ancient relgions & their gods bouncing around

no no, i didnt say ra had anything to do with vikings, the look of the jewlery had to be ispired from their art style. D'ni has even less to do with vikings...
Ra is simply just cooler than the avrage god, and easy to represent.
