Sleipnir

Not a bad bit of work, and they even got the color right.  It's an amusing story, how Sleipnir came to be born; Njörðr mocks Loki over it in the Lokasenna.

  1. I would imagine Sleipnir was more like a Norwegian fjord horse or an Icelandic pony. But who knows what breeding stock the giants had access to?

  2. Yeah, I thought Andalusian was a strange choice; but as you say, if one parent is a giant's stallion and the other parent is a god who turned himself into a mare, who knows what you'd get?

    Off hand I'd say you get a heck of a feed bill and quite a lot of odd looks when you stop by the farrier's to order new shoes.
