Well, to be honest, I already asked it on reddit, but maybe there are some people not on reddit and have a brilliant idea. So, my question is, is there some way to buy loose shields from Iron Hills dwarves, or Dol Amroth/Rivendell (but those have lesser priority for me). I want give a few goat riders a shield, for my heroes in the battle company. But by buying it on Forge World it would cost me 24 euros (and maybe some more for sending it to me...). Someone pointed out that unreleased miniatures could have something. The noble elves shields seems alright. But if there are more convincing real-looking shields, like the ones from FW/GW, it would be nice. O, and yes, I know you can make them yourself. Maybe I will try it, if I have the right stuff (what do you really need, what brand is good?). I have tried it once before, to make a mold for stuff. For scenery it's fine, but the shields and weapons are more detailed and smaller, which makes it difficult. So, if possible I will buy them, even if its a bit more expensive than making my own mold. |

Well, you already mentioned all the points I thought of. I don't mind the third party shields, they look pretty good to me. |

Another way to go is to do something completely different with the shields. Do a search for 28mm dwarf shields and look at scibor or warlord games has a Roman Auxiliary shield pack with 20 shields. Can always make your own design on them. |
