Whoa! super cool! Howd you add the silver and stuff to the shield?

In short, Karrde's right. The shield piece was originally transparent neon orange. I painted it all black, then added the bronze paint, then the silver.
Thats the best custom Castle minifig I've seen Though it is not completly cast but still with a few ajustments it would fit in with any castle creation.
The black is Krylon Fusion spraypaint; the silver and brown/bronze colors are Golden brand acrylic paints.
The spear and shield are actually painted MegaBloks weapons-- I found a ton of something called "Plasma Dragon" packs on clearance for $1 and each one has a bunch of interesting weapons like those. They're in obnoxious colors like trans-blue and neon orange, but they come out pretty nice once re-painted.
The Marauder soldier helmet is inspired. That's a great way of thinking "outside the box".
