Jormungandr Midgard Serpent Nordic Viking Tattoo Design

The mighty Midgard serpent, the Jormungandr, rendered in the Urnes style to wrap the forearm or leg. A symbol of Nordic Viking power.

After we finished and he prepared to leave... as he grasped the studio door knob a HUGE boom of thunder shook the building. "What was THAT?" he gasped.... "The blessing of Thor" I replied!
