For the December (late) rewards I created Skadi, the Norse goddess of Winter. 

Skadi, Old Norse Skaoi, in Norse mythology, the giant wife of the sea god Njörd. In order to avenge the death of her father, the giant Thiazi, Skadi took up arms and went to attack the rival tribe of the gods (the Aesir) in Asgard, home of the gods. The Aesir, wanting to appease her anger, offered her the choice of one of their number for a husband, with the stipulation that she choose a god by his legs (or feet) alone. She chose Njörd, thinking that he was the fair god Balder; their marriage failed because Njörd preferred to live by the sea, and Skadi was happier in her father’s home in the mountains (Thrymheim). In some sources, Skadi was known as the goddess of snowshoes. Another tradition relates that Skadi later married the god Odin and bore him sons.

I'm still alive, promise, and finally got back to work properly. I actually ended up taking more time off to myself than I intended and spent most of it exploring this new tiny town and putting together furniture 🙃 Which is always the best part about moving into a new empty flat (not really). 

It also took longer than normal to finish this figure because I spent more time than I should have on her clothing choices, then keying it properly. All of these files have been sent to my poor support guy who is being run off his feet by work. 

December backers, I'll be sending your rewards out within the next day or so, I'm just waiting on the final turntable renders to finish, and I'll update this post with the usual turntable once it's finished as well. 

Below are screenshots of the three versions of Skadi. This figure is in 4 pieces, and the feet are keyed to fit onto the base. 

Why yes, I've included a topless version. 😈
