Bound Loki and Sigyn
Very early design sketch based on a verse from Prose Edda.
The gods have captured Loki and have bound him upon three large stones used the guts of his son Nari (who was killed by his brother Vali when his was turned into a wolf as punishment) which have turned to iron. The Goddess Skaði has placed a snake above Loki. Sigyn places herself beside him, where she holds out a bowl to catch the dripping venom. However, when the bowl becomes full, she leaves to pour out the venom. As a result, Loki is again described as shaking so violently that the planet shakes, and this process repeats until he breaks free, setting Ragnarök into motion.
