A Nordic Version Of Harry Potter

A few days ago, JK Rowling announced a whole new range of magic schools that exist in the Harry Potter universe. Which is good timing, because Blizzard artist Even Amundsen—whose work we’ve featured here before—has for a while now had an idea for a new school of his own.

It’s called Vølurheim, and it’s a school for old-timey Nordic myth and magic. For the past year or so Amundsen has been creating characters to run this school, and I thought given Rowling’s announcement (and the quality of the pics) that this was the perfect time to showcase them.

To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper), click on the “expand” button in the top-left corner.

Fine Art is a celebration of the work of video game artists, showcasing the best of both their professional and personal portfolios. If you’re in the business and have some concept, environment, promotional or character art you’d like to share, drop us a line!
