I loved RobSoundtrack's 12-hole Ocarina, and it plays
really well!
But due to my Nordic heritage, I thought it needed some
decorating :D
So I traced the actual artwork from The Jelling
Stones(Jellingestenene) and used that to make carvings
into the Ocarina.
I used visual elements from both of the Jelling stones.
Quick history of the Jelling Stones: The Jelling Stones
are runic gravestones located in Jelling(a city in
Denmark). The large one with the stone carvings and runes
that I used on the front of the ocarina is believed to
have been raised by Harald Bl tand(Harald Bluetooth. Yes.
The guy that your phone gadgets are named after) in
memory of his parents as well as boasting his own deeds,
and the graphics I used is actually depicing Jesus Christ
as this was at the time where Denmark was transitioning
to Christianity.
The runes from the smaller of the Jelling stones are an
inscription roughly translating to "King Gorm made these
memorials after Thyra his wife, Denmark's beauty"
Worth noting is that the actual history of the Jelling
Stones(and whether or not the inscriptions are actually
the truth) is subject to debate, but the above is what's
generally considered to be the most likely truth.
