it would be more combat practical for him to have two shields and two swords. Possibly even one shield a sword ready to be used and a great axe being wielded by the two arms on the one side. Can you say AXE POWER! This just makes me want to see 5 vikings each with four arms fighting against 20 normal ones. Epic
Thanks. For painting chainmail you can use a custom brush. A 'C', 'U' or 'O' shaped one, with large spacing can be used to paint the overall texture. Then painting over it to add some highlights and shadows can give some nice results.
