ATTENTION- THESE SHIELDS HAVE YET TO BE COVERED WITH CANVAS OR RECIEVE A DROP OF EPOXY SHELL. THE PICS ARE HERE TO PROVIDE YOU WITH SOME IDEA ABOUT SHAPE.

These are made from 1/2" birch plywood. The striking edges have been given a reenforcement ring on the backside of the shield in order to keep an authentic appearance while providing a full inch of wood to the striking edge before any epoxy shell has been added.

Boss hole is the standard 5 1/2" that a vast majority of SCA shield bosses are designed to fit.

Finished shield will be very smooth and covered with two coats of scraped gesso to give the perfect painting surface.

$160 each

Estimated time to 100% completion is three weeks.

Top striking edges will be a full INCH of birch plywood before the epoxy shell.

This should make them very tough indeed.
