The axe was a primary weapon through the dark ages and beyond. Inconcievable to have a Viking war party but no axemen. These Vikings have a modular design, often only the head covering is different. The coxwain is a re-issue (Viking Trader and Seated Vikings-2 posts), but with different head, wearing a brand new coat of chain mail and generally having been polished up. I printed them out here to populate a 32-seater in 1:72 scale. The results using a resin printer are shown in the pictures here, but if you go up a size to 1:56 scale (apply 128% size to the attached files) they may come out even better.   Update 08-10-2021: Updated the body protection - everyone now wears one-piece mail shirts, no lacing anywhere, and reaching down to elbows and knees.  Updated the helmets - everyone wears a spangenhelm with noseguard.  No more visors or eyeguards.  Updated the cloaks to fold properly.  Both warriors come in three versions: bareheaded, with helmet or with helmet and cloak.  Added also one version of Egil holding sword instead of axe.  Overhauled round shields - proper size now (90cm dia.) to stop a hail of arrows, rocks or thowing-axes and not the dinky earlier shields. Also added a selection of authentic swords if you need some scatter scenery.  Update 25-01-2024: Added a separate cloak.

After an eternity working in the 2D printing industry, I underwent an upgrade and started working for a 3D printing startup in 2020. I love working on physical, as well as digital, dioramas - creating them, populating them, improving them. My usual scales are 1:72 and 1:144.
