I managed to put a good one together not too long ago ... Try this:

Black waist/Brown Legs
Black or Brown Torso
Flat Plate Armor - the kind that came with the Yellow Castle - without
any decals, of course.
head with reddish-brown beard and stubble printing - the red looks
*very* nordic!
Dark Gray or Black Helmet - the kind with the flare and nose-guard
A gray hatchet
One of the Dark Gray Round 2x2 shields that came with the old castle
sets

Hope this helps!

Does anybody have any good ideas on how to make a Viking
figure? The blue spears from the new battle cycles (forgot
their name) would make a great weapon.  Brown and grey
legs, brown arms are a start, but what about a torso?

I usually just use whatever plain torso I can find, an axe
from the old firemen and a round 2x2 plate for the shield.
If I need a sword, two 1x1 cylinders do the job.

If you want to tend to the details, use a brown forestman
torso.

Play well,

Jacob
