Make some Persian shields

[Konrad]

Creating the shield designs on the PC...

..print..

..glue to plastic.
I usually use cardboard but it doesn't work well for working out the radii.

Take the fixings from the original shields..

..glue them to my finished plastic signs.

Ready!

Those shields look great when added to the figures, Konrad. Well done!

I find it very interesting although I do not have that ability with technology.

You call that ready? That figure isn't painted!

Excellent work on those shields Konrad!

Well Done.
It certainly pays to have a good reliable Printer too. BB

I have been using plastic sheets with printed paper at the beginning. After I bought a lasercutter, I could now cut out the shield. Since plastic melts, I am using the material called Polybak. They also call it Lazerboard or similar.
This one is 0.4mm thick, enough to attach a brass rod to glue it to a figure. I tried the thinner Kraftpaper, which would look better but it is less than 0.3mm and the could not keep the brass rod sticking to it.
