Miniature Viking Shield #3
These mini shields are handmade from start to finish and measure roughly 2 inched in diameter.
I start by cutting twelve piece of wood, six per side and then glue the sides together, making sure the boards on each side are at a 90 degree angle from the other side to ensure the strongest structure.
After the wood is glued, it is sanded down so there are no snags and then an undercoat is painted on, dried, followed by the main coat.
Once dried, the design is freehand drawn on the shield and then delicately painted in so the design pops.
The additions are then carefully added, included the trim, dotted bolts, and the boss.
Each shield can be made into either a pin to wear, a pendant to hang around your neck or in a car, or as a magnet to decorate your refrigerator.
You can also pick differant colors if you like a design but have a differant color preference.
When you proceed to purchase a shield, please fill out the available form and let me know which style and colors you would like for your shield. You can select from a list of available options or simply choose what you see in the picture.
