Chicken shields

Post by Emperor James »

I just had to make these shields. They are based ona comicbook series a friend and I did, in which chickens and cows were pitted against one another. The chickens inevitably won :D

There is an old saying about something being "scarcer than hen's teeth" Obviously they hadn't seen these hens :wink:

I put these all on figures, and since they turned out looking a lot like the dragon masters, I shall call them the chicken masters :D

You made a chicken shield. Does that means you are brave like a chicken?

Very funny! It looks like a lot of effort went into these.

The only thing I would suggest is cleaning up the images a little. I know that printed it won't make a difference, but it does detract from the overall viewing in the computer screen to see those little black specks.

Just a thought.

Edit:

Have you thought of doing an octagonal shield like this? I can really see a KK2 Chicken Knight. :D :D :D

Very funny. I can't really see why you made them but each to his own weirdness. :wink:

Weirdnesses are what make us great! I got a chuckle out of the shields and the torsos, shield combination would definitly be a sight to see. Bring on the Chickens! :D

I wanted to give the armored chicken warrior a golden sword, but I don't have one :(

Well, what can I say other than....

these guys can be in their right minds wearing a chicken emblem. (Although laughing your enemies to death is probably among the more humane ways of killing.)

I like your choice of the neon spear for the chicken warrior.
