Halloween 2010 Shield

Posted on October 26, 2010 by JESTER

Started on the shield today. I wrapped the handle yesterday with nylon string but didn’t like the look so today I bought some hemp string and it turned out better!!
I also repainted the shadows on the blade. I did a sloppy job the first time and had to sand it down and start again. I’m pretty happy with it this time.

I have to figure out how to add the arm strap to the back of the shield, then paint it, then I’m done!! Yay!!
