from TheRPF.com
has a very cool item he is manufacturing & offering up for
sale -
"Those
of you who have been following Sarednab's thread for his excellent
Grail Knight Sword prop and have ordered the replica, will know
that I have been developing a companion display piece for the
sword.
The display
specification is as follows:
Dimensions:
W192mm x H388mm x D15mm (bevel edge 6mm all around)
Materials: 15mm thick Marine Grade Plywood
Profile: Cut to shield shape with bevelled edge
Finish: Wood stained dark mahogany colour with satin varnish (both
sides)
Print: 2 colour screen print red and metallic gold
Fitments: pre-drilled keyhole fixings to reverse for hanging on
wall & 2 x brass hooks supplied to be screwed into pre-drilled
holes in front to hang sword
The wood
sheet is 8' x 4' meaning that we can get 33 shields out. I am
going to purchase a sheet, but I am going to cut the sheet in
half. Doing so means that we can only get 15 shields out per half,
so we loose 3 shields. Realistically this would increase the cost
per piece slightly, however I am not going to increase the cost.
Price
for each is $45.00 plus shipping.
If you
are interested can you kindly PM me and I will add you to the
list. Once we get near to the required number I will update this
post with my PayPal address and request payments from those interested."

is digitizing old actors to make new indy film. Actually a drawing
I did in 85. Just found in a box of my old artwork and newspaper
strips I used to do in the 80s. But hey it's not a bad idea!"
