Kite Shield Progress, and a great handle trick.

There may currently be three ongoing shield projects in my home, at the moment.  This was not in any way intentional. But suddenly there are all these opportunities to get crafty. Captain Tripps is entirely at fault for being so dang inspirational! Check out his shield, entirely foam, and plastidip. It's amazing. Now let's check out what I've been up to.

Larp Shield Progress

There have been some changes to the plan but the shields are coming along nicely. In terms of timing it took quite a bit longer to buy materials, and cut materials, than anticipated. Because of that we're dropping the cloth covering due to drying time. We're going full on boffer construction, instead of historic. But the trip to Home Depot, although long, was very fruitful. Modern retail building materials offer some amazing short cuts in the construction of larp gear.
