Viking Ship Challenges the Midgard Serpent

I remember when the Vikings line was first announced back in 04/05. The Viking Ship was a standout set. That year I ended up getting the set as an early birthday gift, the set did not disappoint. From the number of minifigs, to the serpent and the ship it had it all. I have fond memories of the set, especially the build.
 
Rebuilding it as a micro scale model was quite the challenge as it has so many intricate details. Capturing aspects like the dragon’s head on the front of the ship or the sinister serpent is not easy! One aspect that I’m glad I recreated was the articulation of the serpent. Using clip elements to piece it all together gives it a faithful reconstruction of the original. Overall, this was a fun challenge and I feel the result is quite faithful the original 7018 set.
