(Mural Difficulty Level: 10) https://i.imgur.com/iylUljN.jpg Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By brass: Originally Posted By FB41: A battlefield mural showing ravens on the dead with Valyrie taking warriors to Valhalla. Something along these lines, maybe with Huginn and Muninn circling above and not so dark overall? (Mural Difficulty Level: 10) https://i.imgur.com/iylUljN.jpg Little known nerd fact: Of the dead warriors selected by the Valkyries, only half of them actually end up going to Valhal (Valhalla), which is located in Asgard. As most of you probably know, Valhal is the hall of Odin, where warriors spend time training and preparing to fight for the gods in the final battle (Ragnarok), and feasting and drinking in the evenings. As a side note, the warriors will NOT "live forever" since most of them will be killed in Ragnarok. But, the other half of the dead warriors selected by the Valkyries actually end up going to Freya, and live in her hall (called Sessrúmnir), located in Fólkvangr. It's not entirely clear whether those warriors will also fight in Ragnarok alongside Odin's army, or if they have some other purpose. So even if someone was a brave warrior that was killed in battle, and was one of the small number of the dead who were selected by the valkyries, there was only a 50/50 chance they would end up in Valhal. They could just as easily go to Sessrumnir. |

I think you're closer to it than I am. It's pretty cool and they have a couple rigged up with reproductions of the bones they're digging and you can stand at a giant window in front of the archaeological dig to see different layers and sizes of various creatures. It's pretty cool if you haven't been there, in Hot Springs, SD IIRC, southern end of Black Hills. Assuming it was prey, Dinosaur would be maybe 2x-5x larger or so? Mammoth Site |

I can't remember if this is the one we went to or not. I'm thinking the one we went to had a dig in process inside a building. The bones were originally found at the start of a construction project. |

Not sure if they have hull plans, but here's a link to the Viking Ship museum in Denmark (in Roskilde). They not only have the remains of several ships, including a long ship - but they also build replicas, using Viking period tools and methodologies. They built a long ship many years ago and sailed it to Ireland and back. I didn't spend a lot of time on their site, but they might have some good resources. https://www.vikingeskibsmuseet.dk/en/ Here's the ship they built and sailed to Ireland:

Update 8/23 Day 2!
We made it through the rules/syllabus day!  This morning, @FB41 had a nice surprise delivered to us.  Kids had fun with it already, and it inspired us to begin searching for a mannequin to wield it above, while riding the dragon.    Now, how did that attack on the abby go?  Planning began 1st thing this morning. Each group of students discussed where things should be, what colors should be where, and decided who wanted to work on what.  This group of seniors made the major decisions about where things should be. Great group of students. We should have a great year.  1/3rd scale Vikings......  |
