Here we have a few happy little trees, next to a happy little lake. A wolf the size of a small continent steps over the happy little mountain, causing Hugin to fuck right off, because he is a smart bird.
Martina I’m not trying to give hate cause your better at painting animals than but I think the bend of the wolves leg needs more work cause it looks deformed and broken not trying to hate just trying to help you advance further Love your work tho it’s beautiful and amazing
It is heartbreaking that Bob Ross is no longer here to see where Martina has taken her canvas and spatula, her hills and forests, her happy little torches.
Martina: *Creates a masterpiece* Martina: I'm not sure about this one I think I could've done better. Me: *Draws a straight line without a ruler* Me: Kiss my ass Picasso, I'm an artist
(some sceptical 3D CGI inside): light is not realistic, because not applied to all surrounding, no shadow, reflection of sky wolf is not mirrored skywolf properly... also I (to self): "Shut up and enjoy! You're not capable to do that!" (overall - very. VERY by all BIG LETTERS) )))
This is a legit masterpiece: all these details and colors and the sight of despair on Odin's face and frightening Fenrir, all of it looks amazing. I really love Greek and Scandinavian mythology and I'm so happy you created something like this, thank you
That's insane! I literally cried when you showed the final results. I've never seen some painting talk so much about the Ragnarok. Like, the wolf Fenrir coming in a powerful and revengeful way just scares me so much! It's going to kill Odin and he just accepted his destiny, but looking to the painting it looks it'll jump out of the painting and destroy me! Amazing painting Martina!!!!!
As a dog art expert I give this wolf my highest level of a-paws 👏 👏 👏 (get it? Terrible dog pun) But seriously this is amazing and I am always blown away by Martina’s strong usage of light in all her artwork 😍
She always starts off so humble before a painting and it turns out like a masterpiece. Some of these would make some killer puzzles that I'd love to put together. Also, I'm totally taking notes on that color theory and the way she painted fire. I feel like I learned more here in this project than in some other tutorials on youtube.
Me too. It would take a while to finish, but the beauty of that is that you must inspect each and every piece. Helps you to appreciate it more. Needs to be at least 1,000 pieces
It's gorgeous! The sense of inescapable doom as Fenrir comes toward Odin, not in a hurry, just implacable and serene as Odin despairs his looming death, Huginn and Muninn at his side until the end.
Norse mythology is just so incredibly metal and they really went "All out" for the apocalypse. The fact that Ragnarök hasn't been turned into a decent movie yet is disappointing but understandable as no modern studio could truly portray the scale of the fight that, in the mind of the Norse, would end the world.
@@UberLegionXIII Not only the characters, it’s also lots of events, and the way to represent them... take these ones, the money (and the special effects!) of Hollywood, mix together, and the die is cast! 😏😆 100%!
I grew up reading Norse Mythology and whenever reading about the events or Ragnarok I could always see everything happening in my head and your painting somehow encapsulates some of those aspects 🥺✨
It’s the atmosphere that gets me. Just by looking at the background I can tell exactly how it would feel if I were to step into the painting itself. It’s such a somber piece too. It really captures the feeling of a cold, damp and dark morning. I love it. I REALLY want to get this print.
but i know what she means: you do your thing - painting, drawing, sculpting, composing or what ever your creativity needs to be expressed in - and then it happens. Bamm! One wrong drawn line. one note, that doesn´t sound quite right or even just a goddamn word that doesn´t really hit the mark! And every try to fix dis: for naught or worse even more out of place! Everyone else: "hey, great work!" but everytime you see/read/hear it: "GAAAAH!" pure agony! like it´s poking right into your face! I´m with my drawings miles away from Martinas level but that´s a thing every artist, or at least one who wants one to be, knows and sometimes timely distance - look at it a week later - or another point of view changes everything. Heck, look at Bob Ross´"happy little accidents"! But it´s ggod to know even Martina has these Moments ; )
@@jarmin9321 as far as i know fenrir doesnt have any children, he himself is a child of loki and he bit off tyr's hand when he was fooled by odin to be chained wich is what set the whole grudge against the aesir in motion that would lead to the fimbul winter and eventualy ragnarök. He ends up dying by the hand of vidar the son of odin but not before he indeed kills the allfather.
Ten yrs ago I started painting garden rocks. From there I went to canvas doing abstract then on to pour painting, which I love. Then I found your channel and became so inspired to do more than what I was doing. I am currently working on a 2'x3' mountainscape poking through the clouds. I would never have endeavored something like this if it were not for you! Thank You, I bet you don't even realize how much you actually teach and inspire budding artists.
I'm so bummed I've only just discovered you and your amazing work. This is a masterpiece and I wish there were still prints available so I could support you by buying one!
@@can9033 think I'll take a theological approach. In Norse mythology and religion, Odin always worried that when Huginn and Muninn left to gather knowledge for him, that they might not return. They were his trusted allies in his pursuit of knowledge, even helping him with reconnaissance over battlefields so he could see what his enemies were up to. In this scene, it shows one flying away and the other in his ear almost saying a last goodbye before joining the other in flight leaving Odin without his trusted companions and the help and advantage they always gave to him. He is well and truly on his own for this one last battle against a force that was foretold to end him. Ragnarok is a story of endings and beginnings of an entirely new era.
I’m proud of how in-touch I am with my emotions. When I see beautiful art, it reminds me of the joy of creation and the beauty that humans can achieve. Martina’s painting evokes despair, isolation, the end of all things. Of course I cried, you dork ass losers.
@@elijahmacfarland9000 nothing wrong with that, I think it is beautifull that you can feel that intence by seeing beauty. The world would be a better place with more sensitive people.
You inspired me to start drawing and painting again. I cannot find the right words, but thank you Martina. You have changed me for the better. I've been really depressed for the last 3 years but painting is bringing me out of it. Thank You, so much. Your art is beyond unbelievable. Always keep this fire for beauty, that you have. With Love, a fan.
eeeee you made my whole week! I'm trying to paint a swamp dragon at the moment, with a mossy castle in the back. Yesterday I watercolored a Rainbow Galaxy Koi fish and that I'm super proud of. Again I can't thank you enough. I'm watching all your videos (especially as I paint) and so far your Dragon and Bob ross Murals are my favorites. Jag älskar dig, och ditt arbete.
i'm crying tears of joy just imaging this hanging in a museum in like 300-400 years being celebrated like how we celebrate art like the mona-lisa, the scream, and the starry night this is so beautiful and deserves to be seen by the world
Those eyes of the Wolf..just wow. When they say art speaks to you, the illumination you put in those eyes just make the whole piece for me. I'm down for a print you publish.
Martina: I'm really not sure about this one tiny spot on this painting. Also Martina: Proceeds to paint the most amazing light effects in the torch and the wolf's eyes. Seriously, there's something about the way light is painted here that just amazes me.
This is beautiful! Maybe because I had a dog named Ragnar and he passed recently, but this generally cheered me up after his passing. You did incredible, I love it.
I absolutely love this painting! It's wonderful. But at the same time, it is so strangely calm... Ragnarok is supposed to be a war, and here it is... peaceful with a sense of dread and defeat. There is no sign of hope anywhere. So intriguing! Keep up the good work, I love it!
The whole piece is absolutely gorgeous, but that fire really capture my attention. it looks like it is actually crackling and at the same time it has a a bit of a stylized/ethereal look, great job
I love the emotions in the painting, the weariness and inevitability of the warrior... the confidence and anticipation of the wolf...such a build up of potential energy!
I just receive my copy of the print of this amazing painting - it looks absolutely amazing in real life, even as a print. I can only imagine how good the real painting looks and feels - if you have the chance to purchase any of the art these two produce, do not hesitate!!
The thing about this is that everybody calls it a masterpiece, but since you're telling you haven't done a lot of paintings of that sort, it means you aren't at your final form yet... and it scares me!
If I was only half as talented and skilled, I’d feel like I could conquer the world! Absolutely beautiful work. The play of light, the advancing doom, the way it all focuses on that point in the background, sweeping back. Just amazing, incredible, stunning. (And also, hearing the names pronounced properly just gives me shivers.)
Can’t wait till I can order a print of this. This is one of the most insanely detailed paintings I’ve ever seen, and I watched it being painted. Is the man Odin? Cause he’s got one eye and what looks like two Ravens. I want this
Martina is unsure about her skills, still creates a damn masterpiece. Meanwhile any time I try to draw: Head: We have this gorgeous vision, we can do this! End result: Stick figures go brrrrr
This is absolutely stunning! I didn't expect the fire light at all, that looks so beautiful. Not only I have learned a lot from watching your process, as a fellow artist, but I also was amazed through it all. Three minutes in I already thought it was absolutely beautiful, not gonna lie, aha. The composition, the feeling of it all... and all the details, it's clear you've thought deep on this painting and how to convey this part of the myths. It seems like a really important one to you too, I adore your work! Just... I don't think I can express all the admiration I've felt through this video in a comment aha. Thank you so much for showing us this amazing process!
If you do prints please do more than you did for CyberPunk. I wasn't able to get one in time. I kinda missed the CyberPunk episode by like a month then it was to late :p I hope to get a print of this, it looks amazing. Edit: I wrote that first part halfway through the video. I had to add' OMFG!! That is so amazing! Seriously that is like looking at my imagination coming to life. I have never seen a better Odin and Fenrir painting before. I really like how Odin desperately looks defeated with Gungnir broken laying beside him and Huginn or Muninn flying away as if to say farewell. Then Fenrir stalking in from the shadows, the final end. I really hope you are very, very proud at your work. Well done, congratulations!
This looks absolutely breathtaking! You've outdone yourself! I'd love to purchase this painting from you if I only had big enough space to hang it on. Glad to hear you'll be making prints though, I'm sure I'm not the only one that loves your work!
Came from smoe’s video following the Ten Hundred collab, glad to have found your channel! This video was crazy 😮 the painting is amazing!!! Genuinely one of my favorites I’ve seen lately 😮
For that "area" that didn't look right, I just thought the wolf tail was too long. Where it hits the low clouds is where I think the tip of the tail should be at. At first I also thought too bushy, but the more I looked I think that is right, just a tad too long. Overall I think this is an amazing painting. Very ambitious and well done. Bob Ross would be so happy!
This is amazing talent, well done! Now I, as a Tolkien nerd, want one of the battles from The Silmarillion, maybe the Dagor Bragollach...? (seriously it would look so amazing, you have talent way beyond my level)
@@redblade8160 That's what I'm saying, you don't need material possessions to show appreciation. Use your words; use your actions - you can't buy or sell appreciation.
Me:paints a tiny kiki's delivery fanart with gouache on watercolor paper. Me: Best painting I've ever seen!!! Martina: paints a huge epic canvas based on ragnarok. Me: F*ck!!!
This is art, I recently see The Northman and I thinks this mood you create is absolutely amazing (like the one in the film). Keep going Martina, love your paintings
I'm not an arts student or an artist in general. I saw each iteration as "That looks perfect!" and then you kept adding more and more detail to it and it just got better. You've done what I thought was the impossible, and the end result looks spectacular. You are insanely talented!
could you imagine the reaction youd get if you could go back 100s of years ago and show them this painting... truly incredible work, love the color palette you chose.
I'm learning art and I swear sometimes you're the only thing keeping me going. Knowing that I'll be able to put my crazy mind on a canvas with a lot of practice and it can look how I want!
I've been dealing with a lot of health issues lately, and it's got me a bit emotional, so watching that timelapse, and seeing this come together, I was just like.. "Wow..." and it brought a tear to my eye. It's truly beautiful.
I recently stumbled upon your channel. I started with your mural videos and have now found this one. Anyway I just wanted to say the amount of depth you show in your paintings is SO incredible. And you’re so freaking good at making things glow!! Like I’ve learned so much just from watching your videos. Lastly, the fact that you sit down through out the video and just state your thoughts on the painting, like sections you don’t like or how you mentally prepare yourself for what you’re about to paint (ie the clouds) is SO relatable. Seriously, this is my new favorite channel. Thank you for these videos!!
Hey! i endup here following the tenhun art collaboration. Im a big fan of nordic mithology and this painting blow my mind! you are an amazing artits! congrats from Argentina!
I recently got back into norse and well mythology in general and this inspires me beyond belief, there's other artists too and I just can't wait to dive into creating mythology based artworks; I'm currently in college and finish in a few weeks, really excited!!
You have an adorable, cheerful personality and are an incredible artist. I've been watching all of your videos. This large piece is very deep and dramatic. I am especially drawn to how you did the flames of the torch. I'm a big fan! Thank you for sharing your talent. Oh - and I love your hair. :-)
Absolutely inspiring work! I love how you are so transparent with the thought process and struggles. Non-artists just do not understand that. They think we just wave our pencils/brushes/etc. and magically drop perfect little pictures on paper/canvas. Wonderful job!
That torch might be one of the most impressive things I've seen painted in a long time.
exactly my thought, the flame is just fantastic
Amen to that.
That's the only thing I could think. The painting is amazing... BUT THAT TORCH 😲
Totally agree. Very realistic
I thought this was weirdly specific, until she painted the torch
Here we have a few happy little trees, next to a happy little lake. A wolf the size of a small continent steps over the happy little mountain, causing Hugin to fuck right off, because he is a smart bird.
Munin is the loyal one staying with the all father. Remembering all the good times spent telling stories to him. 😉
*Reads entire thing in Bob's voice and doesn't even stutter over the polite f-bomb

I like how you don’t mind showing your emotions on camera when you’re frustrated. It really shows your humanity. Thanks. Great painting
The painting in its entirety is great but holy crap that torch. I feel like I would get burned if I touched it
To be fair most fire-lit torches would burn you if touched

Dette ser jo heilt sjukt ut..! Flammene gav en utrolig god effekt, og følelse, så dette var vanvittig godt gjort 😍 Damn.
It’s crazy how emotional this painting is. Great art will always make you feel something and this is a damn masterpiece
If you do prints please do more than you did for CyberPunk. I wasn't able to get one in time. I kinda missed the CyberPunk episode by like a month then it was to late :p I hope to get a print of this, it looks amazing. Edit: I wrote that first part halfway through the video. I had to add' OMFG!! That is so amazing! Seriously that is like looking at my imagination coming to life. I have never seen a better Odin and Fenrir painting before. I really like how Odin desperately looks defeated with Gungnir broken laying beside him and Huginn or Muninn flying away as if to say farewell. Then Fenrir stalking in from the shadows, the final end.
I really hope you are very, very proud at your work. Well done, congratulations!
This looks absolutely breathtaking! You've outdone yourself! I'd love to purchase this painting from you if I only had big enough space to hang it on. Glad to hear you'll be making prints though, I'm sure I'm not the only one that loves your work!
Thank you so much!!
@@Nerdforge You’re very welcome, well deserved ☺️
Whenever it's a Martina painting video, I pull out the tea, snacks and get cozy. Never disappointed. Absolutely slayed this one girl.
The way you're painting flames just... astound me 😱😱😱 I'm staring at it got like 10 minutes, and, I don't know, It's making me emotional 🤷😳
Came from smoe’s video following the Ten Hundred collab, glad to have found your channel! This video was crazy 😮 the painting is amazing!!! Genuinely one of my favorites I’ve seen lately 😮
I didn't have to cry but the fire is outstanding
that torch is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I've seen painted before
For that "area" that didn't look right, I just thought the wolf tail was too long. Where it hits the low clouds is where I think the tip of the tail should be at. At first I also thought too bushy, but the more I looked I think that is right, just a tad too long. Overall I think this is an amazing painting. Very ambitious and well done. Bob Ross would be so happy!
It looks as if it's raining inside the painting, in that first close look to the wolf's face. Simply amazing.
This is amazing talent, well done!
Now I, as a Tolkien nerd, want one of the battles from The Silmarillion, maybe the Dagor Bragollach...?
(seriously it would look so amazing, you have talent way beyond my level)
I would love the fall of Gondolin
Your color wheel discussion was excellent. Loved how you depicted the torch!
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing work. She is so underrated even though she deserves a lot. ❤❤
Yes

If you really appreciate her work, then send her all the money you have!
@@redblade8160 Not all appreciation is expressed in the form of monetary value. The sooner people learn that, the happier society will be.
@@PhilosophyofElivagar
But money is still needed for materials in order to create something for you to appreciate!
@@redblade8160 That's what I'm saying, you don't need material possessions to show appreciation. Use your words; use your actions - you can't buy or sell appreciation.
Me:paints a tiny kiki's delivery fanart with gouache on watercolor paper.
Me: Best painting I've ever seen!!!
Martina: paints a huge epic canvas based on ragnarok.
Me: F*ck!!!
This is art, I recently see The Northman and I thinks this mood you create is absolutely amazing (like the one in the film). Keep going Martina, love your paintings
I'm not an arts student or an artist in general.
I saw each iteration as "That looks perfect!" and then you kept adding more and more detail to it and it just got better.
You've done what I thought was the impossible, and the end result looks spectacular.
You are insanely talented!
Geez. I'd be so proud of myself if my painting turned out as good as her basic color block stage!

Martina: "let's have a look at the final result."
RUclips: * throws a 20 second, unskippable advert at me *
Me:👁👄👁
I watch RUclips on my PC and have ad blocker on all the time. So they never get a chance to throw ads at me.
@@msamelienp oooo big brain
I clicked on the time stamp and got an ad too 😂 I’m done
RUclips can be a bitch sometimes
Same😭😂
Dude I’ve always wondered how Norse people actually say words from Norse Mythos so hearing you saying those was really interesting
could you imagine the reaction youd get if you could go back 100s of years ago and show them this painting... truly incredible work, love the color palette you chose.
I'm learning art and I swear sometimes you're the only thing keeping me going. Knowing that I'll be able to put my crazy mind on a canvas with a lot of practice and it can look how I want!
This will be really good on an adult jigsaw puzzle, the one with many pieces.
Nerdforge: *Uploads*
Internet: *YAAAAAAY*
This is probably the coolest most breathtaking painting I have ever seen. I love vikings and norse mythology and you captured it perfectly. ❤ 💘
I've been dealing with a lot of health issues lately, and it's got me a bit emotional, so watching that timelapse, and seeing this come together, I was just like.. "Wow..." and it brought a tear to my eye. It's truly beautiful.
I recently stumbled upon your channel. I started with your mural videos and have now found this one.
Anyway I just wanted to say the amount of depth you show in your paintings is SO incredible. And you’re so freaking good at making things glow!! Like I’ve learned so much just from watching your videos. Lastly, the fact that you sit down through out the video and just state your thoughts on the painting, like sections you don’t like or how you mentally prepare yourself for what you’re about to paint (ie the clouds) is SO relatable.
Seriously, this is my new favorite channel. Thank you for these videos!!
A happy little cloud of doom.... And he's got a little friend living up there... in Painting there are no mistakes, just happy accidents!
Ross, my man
Hey! i endup here following the tenhun art collaboration. Im a big fan of nordic mithology and this painting blow my mind! you are an amazing artits! congrats from Argentina!
Yes Baby.
@@schnela6314 Uh
WHY ARE YOU SO GOD DAMN TALENTED!
Those little rocks on the shore look so REAL. Love the whole thing (these cold tones
I recently got back into norse and well mythology in general and this inspires me beyond belief, there's other artists too and I just can't wait to dive into creating mythology based artworks; I'm currently in college and finish in a few weeks, really excited!!
You have an adorable, cheerful personality and are an incredible artist. I've been watching all of your videos. This large piece is very deep and dramatic. I am especially drawn to how you did the flames of the torch. I'm a big fan! Thank you for sharing your talent. Oh - and I love your hair. :-)
I just wanna go and paint something, anything Martina! You're by far the best talented inspiration I had for years. THANK YOU!
"With references, everything is possible" - Martina 2021. I think I'm going to pin this quote up anytime I attempt a painting. Thank you!
Absolutely inspiring work! I love how you are so transparent with the thought process and struggles. Non-artists just do not understand that. They think we just wave our pencils/brushes/etc. and magically drop perfect little pictures on paper/canvas.
Wonderful job!
You should make a 1000-piece-puzzle out of it, it would be amazing
Congrats on the 1M!!! You deserve it!
There are no words, great job as always👏🏻👏🏻🔥🐺🌲💜😍
Martina: “I think I can.”
Me: OH YOU DEFINITELY CAN!!!! Thank you for the beauty you create.
I love all of the movement in your composition, very flowy feeling, beautiful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I want to get a book with the cover of the painting she just did.
