Yggdrasil by Rowye on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Kind of following up on my last artwork, wanted to improve on my ability to photobash a tree.
This is a bit of a free interpretation of the Yggdrasil myth, as some of the worlds are said to have the tree in the middle, also the snake is supposed to be around Midgard and not around the whole tree but... I'll just call it artistic liberty and go with it. xD
For those unfamiliar with this viking myth:

Yggdrasil is an immense mythical tree that connects the nine worlds in Norse cosmology. It is center to the cosmos and considered very holy. The gods go to Yggdrasil daily to assemble at their things. The branches of Yggdrasil extend far into the heavens, and the tree is supported by three roots that extend far away into other locations.
