I just recieved my copy of your book today. I immediately downloaded some of your additional desings and with another round of confinement coming up where I live, I'll likely be buying your courses in the next few weeks as well. 😁 You've created an amazing ressource for artists! I'll be using those mainly for relief wood carving. Hopefully I can share photos of my work with you soon! Thank you so much!
Great video✨ I have a question, what does the lip lappet signify/is trying to convey? I'm not aware of any animals that have that kind of structure. Also could the neck tendril represent a horn? But the horn has the design of the leaf motif?
It's mostly a stylistic trait developed through the style periods, starting as a curled nostril and then developing into a more elongated lip lappet in the Ringerike style. You could maybe interpret it as some kind of whiskers or the tuft of hair on the cheeks that dogs and wolves might have. The neck tendrils are, like the lip lappet, more of a stylistic feature, but it looks like it might resemble horns or rather antlers in some cases. But it is mostly a stylistic feature still :)
Currently I’m primarily using an iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil. It’s a great setup for illustration and also for vector work. I also have an old Wacom Cintiq, but I would definitely recommend the iPad and pencil instead :)
Thank you. Yes, I thought it might be better if you could see the pen while I drew. You think it would work better with just a direct screen recording?
I find your viking knotwork tutorial the best! I would love to see you do a wolf someday
Thank you! A wolf is actually precisely what I have in mind for an upcoming video :)
You're my go-to when it comes to the source code of norse art =) Great job, drengr Markussen.
Thank you! Glad you find my work helpful :)

That's awesome! Thank you for the support. I'm glad you've found my work helpful :) Would love to see your work, so feel free to share
That was very enjoyable. I'm not a skilled artist, so your tutorial is welcome on many levels for me, thank you!
Thank you. I’m happy you enjoyed it!

Can I ask what tablet & pen you use. I am looking for something similar to expand my art options.
Thanks

@@jonaslaumarkussen6045 thanks for the quick reply. I have looked at refurbished one to start so your comments are a big help.
First of all: great work. That being said.... you filmed your tablet? why don't make a screencast directly?
Thank you. Yes, I thought it might be better if you could see the pen while I drew. You think it would work better with just a direct screen recording?
@@jonaslaumarkussen6045 I think so, but now that you said that I'm not sure. Maybe try it and see how it feels for you?
I’ll try that in the next video and see how it works. Maybe even do a mix of both. Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it! 🙏
It was very soothing watching this. I will have to give it a try :)
How to Draw a Chimera
That's probably more of a Greek thing than a Nordic ;-)
