Rollo, Duke of Normandy
Hi everyone,
As promised, here is another leader character I painted for Dark Ages; Rollo, Duke of Normandy.
Before Rollo became duke, he was a viking warlord who raided the Franks, until he received land from emperor Charles the Simple, where he would defend Frankia against his former allies. His descendant would be William the Conqueror and king of the Normans.
Any Vikings watchers anyone? How do you think they portrayed Rollo?
Looking forward to any thoughts you might have about the piece!
Best,
JCH
