This is coming along nicely. The first blank is done and will be used as a template to cut each one made so they are all exactly the same.
Still waiting on the brass sheets but should have them from the factory very soon.

Just an update:
Our master pattern is cut and formed. This will be used as a template to cut all of the shields, ensuring each is identical.
Each shield is sandwiched between this template an a forming mold in our vacuum press to achieve an accurate curve every time.
Our Stock of brass sheets arrives tomorrow and more images to share soon.

Re: Classic Patriot shield - TFA version

I'm VERY interested. Any chance one could be ready by HeroesCon June 19??
 
Re: Classic Patriot shield - TFA version

Making lots of progress, the first one will be finished by by the weekend for a photo shoot.
JediCarl, your date requested is cutting it too close. We have to wait on our full run of straps to be made and it takes a week to fully produce one.
Only FOUR will be available for the initial run. We will use the sales to purchase materials for a second, larger run.
Stay tuned very soon for ordering info.

Shown here, the special mounting bracket we designed to hold and pivot the shield during paint.


For additional charge, we will be offering the addition of these professionally mounted clips which can be used to strap the shield to your back (straps not included).


Finally, shown here, the first color coat is solid white.

Update:
First post is revised and under construction. I am compiling better photos and a advertising graphic.
I had the pleasure of attending the huge WWII weekend event in Reading, Pennsylvania. This was the perfect test drive of our prototype shield as it helped us pinpoint the kinks that need worked out.
We discovered our leather strap and handle system will need to be tougher and new samples are already in the works.
We also discovered that the gold clad laminate scratches super easy, so we are doing some tests with clear coating it with the catalyzed urethane for a more durable surface.
These improvements will ultimately give you, the buyer, a far better product.

The first post will be updated later tonight and we will be open for pre sales.
