UPDATE: Did a complete redo of the cape, added a texture to it, not sure why I didn't before.

A longtime member of The Defenders, Valk has had two hosts for her divine form. The first was ocialite, Samantha Parrington the second and most famous was Barbara Norriss.

The word Valkyrie comes from, Old Norse Valkyrja "Choosers of the Slain". The king of the gods Wooden (Odin) would send his warrior women to Migard (Earth) in order to collect the souls of the bravest warriors. They would them bring them to Great Hall of Asgard where they would take part in never ending feasts and battles.

The Valkyries according to the myths actually rode on wolves, not horses as they are commonly depicted. I elected to go the horse route for this piece.

Note: This manip started out as Wonder Woman International: Scandinavia, until I remembered that there was one, of a sort. Marvel Comics' Valkyrie.
I went through several models until a chance search at Freeones.com brought up Hannah Hilton. After seeing her the choice became a no-brainer. The horse is a Lipizzaner stallion and
"Asgard" in the background is Edinburgh Castle. The infamous rainbow bridge come from a clip art drawing that I "Warp Tool-ed" the heck out of and then used the Overlay blend on.

Hope you enjoy it, and please do not be afraid to comment and rate it. I have a thick skin.

Model: Hannah Hilton

For the cape I think you need to spend more time on it... we all want things to happen quickly but the only way something looks good is if you put the time and effort into it.

I just saw the original image in the jar and you did a well job taking advantage of it. Also like the metal look of her armour and in general of the composition of the all image. Now, I still think you need to pratice more on the cape, with dodge and burn and maybe trying to use a texture to it because still looks too much painted to me. Take your time. btw: I hope you don't skip Escandinavia now , One of the things I like on that serie is the story you post along with the image and now I'm curious to see what you had for that one.
