By any chance do you have any pictures of the frame system that you used making the shield?

Took a piece of 1/4 inch ply wood and cut the shape i wanted. Took a 1 x 4 and cut it 6 ft long. Cut a taper from center to each end and screwed to back of plywood. Then covered with eland. Ack hide, drilled holes and laced with red parachute cord.

I notice the skulls are not whitened as is typically done. Did you add some sort of pigment for that effect?
