Work and Food on the Hoof

Thors pair of magic goats that pull his chariot, Tanngrisnir ("who shows his teeth") and Tanngnjostr ("who gnashes his teeth"), are very special animals.
To the sound of thunder, howling winds and sparks shooting from spinning wheels, the two magical creatures were able to pull Thor's chariot through the skies to any of the Nine Worlds 
In addition, they provided food for Thor and his companions in a unique way.
For, when food was needed, Thor would kill and cook the goats. Then he would collect the bones and skin, and using his magic hammer, Mjolnir, would bring them back to life in full health. In full health that is as long as none of the bones were broken. Might Loki have a trick in mind? We will see...
These are plastic pieces I painted this week.
