King Laufey concept art for "Thor", directed by Kenneth Branagh.
The challenge for designing the Frost Giants was to give them a fierce appearance while still evoking a feel of an intelligent, sophisticated race; instead of ending up with a bunch of strong but dumb brutes or the typical movie monsters.

IMPORTANT INFO: THE ART OF THOR BOOK SIGNING/PANEL:
On May 21 I will be at Gallery Nucleus for an artist panel and book signing together with my fellow artists who also worked on "Thor":

Charlie Wen
Ryan Meinerding
Vance Kovacs

See you there!

Just a word :

Beautiful.

Your Laufey is very realistic, and so... I don't know who to say... Just... Whoa!

You took the words right out of my mouth...

I could be wrong, but I was told that in a lot of the old legends the frost giants actually had horns. I wonder why this wasn't used in the designs of the frost giants in the Thor movie.

Lovely artwork by the way, but I can't help but thinking that a nice pair of horns would have looked fabulous on Laufey.

Horned King Laufey is the best Laufey.
