Thrash Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) BrickWarriors just released 5 brand new Roman themed accessories to equip your Legionnaires, including a Roman Helmet, Plume, Scutum, Gladius, and Pilum. You might think that's too many items for one Legionnaire to carry, but luckily the Scutum features a clip that the Pilum can hook into! Also, as always, 5% of our online sales between Nov 1 and Dec 1 will be donated to Toys for Tots. Enjoy! Edited November 25, 2013 by Thrash Quote
Wardancer Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 I like the shields a lot. They don't have spikes on them ;-), this is good. I hope they come in some metallic colors soon. Also that they have a clip is an awesome idea. I can see them in many mocs, not only Romans. Lego did a good thing with the roman shield, but these are even better. Quote
MAB Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Me too, the shields are very nicely done. I'm hoping for silver (same as the helmets) and bronze. Quote
Wardancer Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Just ordered a bunch of shields, could not resist with the free shipping and all. I have been looking for big defensive shields for a while. If someone would ever make decals for these shields... Quote
Thrash Posted December 2, 2013 Author Posted December 2, 2013 Me too, the shields are very nicely done. I'm hoping for silver (same as the helmets) and bronze. Thanks! I hadn't thought to get them in metallic colors. The next color we get will probably be purple, but I'll keep in mind that you want metallics. :) Just ordered a bunch of shields, could not resist with the free shipping and all. I have been looking for big defensive shields for a while. If someone would ever make decals for these shields... Thanks for ordering! I'd love to see them decaled too. I could also explore printing on them...what design would you want? Quote
Darkdragon Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Purple!?!?! *saves money for dragon wings* Quote
Wardancer Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I could also explore printing on them...what design would you want? Hmm, this is difficult, the thing in the middle does not leave an open space for complicated images, but two rather complicated thin halves. I do not have really good ideas. Maybe moon and stars (white on dark blue?), or other universal symbols like lightnings, eyes, gras... Maybe a star- or sunlike pattern could include the two spiky surfaces and add more spikes in print. The original Roman pattern that the original TLG shield emulates would work (and maybe sell well with Roman armies coming up here and there). One thing could just be to color the outer rim and the rim in the middle to give it a look like it was made from two materials, e.g. metal on wood like the aragorn shield does. Somehow the current CMF islanders face mask comes to mind as it has a shape like the new shield. Printing it like some tribal mask might be interesting, with the stud in the middle as mouth or nose. Might also fit the whole savage/tribal/gladiator theme on BW. Personally, I am stuck in Elf aesthetics, so I am somewhat limited to gras, leaves, trees, wolves, owls and such things. Runes of course kind of work for many factions. A dwarf might look funny with such a big shield. Quote
Infernum Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Try printing the White Tree of Gondor! That'd be great! Quote
Debricker Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Man, If i only had the money for these, have been trying to scrape up some money for the packs, but with all these new video games released, I'm going to have to wait until later. On the other hand I love your work. Keep on making great customs! Quote
Wardancer Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Damn you with the free shipping! It makes me order again and again. Quote
