Here's the Hylian Shield tutorial which I promised to a few people, I hope you find it helpful! I probably wouldnt have gotten round to making this and uploading it if it weren't for a friend asking XD
Please be aware though that this shield was made with a lot of experiment on mine and my fathers part, so we wont be willing to part with all our methods as we worked hard for them and it's for this reason that the tutorial is quite basic. There's still more than enough information there for you though, but if you absolutely cannot figure something out them note me and I'll be happy to help, just don't ask in the comments!
If you use this please let me know, I'd love to see what you make & I'd be happy to show your shield in this description! & don't forget, just because I made a TP Hylian Shield doesn't mean you have to! You can apply the same method to almost any type of shield.
If you'd like your silver details to be raised, you can use modelling clay instead of foam like shown in the tutorial. This is something I intend to go back and change as I only recently learnt of modelling clay and really want the shield details to be 3D!
AWESOME! I think my brain exploded, if I get the materials I'm making this! The ones at our conventions are way more than I can afford but this looks perfect!
So awesome! And thank you for sharing how you made this too! I'm so tempted to try and make one now, 'cause I always wanted to have a Hylian Shield, just to have one. lol xD
How'd it go?
