The Best Viking i ever seen






These are the most beautiful viking ships.

The first one i like it's color, and what vikings do on the ship. They are holding a shield to maybe protect themself from their enemys. The color of ship make the ship more freash and also graceful. And the front part of ship, the dragon's head, it looks so hard.


The second one it's not really a viking ship, it is a Figures. i like it because i like figures...

The last one is A Viking ship from Gokstad viking museum. i like it because it's real viking ship, and it is long and sharp. i like the size of the ship i think it can carry about 30 people.
