I have been lackin on my posts here. These are two shields that I had made, The red shield is a design taken from a pectroglyph carving found near the Wind River Indian Reservation here in Wyoming. I have always admired rock carvings and felt a spiritural connection to them. The head wheel and the hand rolled tin cones make for a loud jingle not intended for sneaking up on an enemy. The green painted bear paw is my favorite. I took the pattern from an original that is a German collection, my twist was to add the half moon at the top to indicate more towards the Cheyenne/Arapaho tribes. A few replica bear claws an a bear ear make for a neat composition.
