Hi all,

There are some brilliant shield transfers out there for Romans, Greeks, Gauls, Vikings, Viking opponents, Crusaders/Saracens, and some HYW and Teutonic Orders.

There is nothing, I mean nothing, for the colorful and dramatic monster-face shields of the Ming Chinese and Nanzhou.

So I'm going to make my own. There is apparently waterslide transfer paper for inket printers.

Anyone else out there with Ming Chinese or Nanzhou armies? Note that many other Chinese armies appear to have used the colorful monsterfaces. But Ming and Nanzhou are the ones I'm working on right now.

Chinese historical reenactors. Chinese historical reenactors. This is a Nanzhou shield from a painted manuscript scroll of the correct period, so as accurate as we're ever going to get absent a recovery of an actual shield. This shield shape and figure were used to create the Eureka Miniatures Nanzhou 15mm miniature figures. Below is a monster shield from a Chinese historical movie. While a movie (and therefore not necessarily accurate), the movie is Chinese-produced and might be using historical sources. Could.

I am looking forward to seeing these. I don't have any armies from this part of the world, but seeing those Eureka figures and having nice decals is certainly tempting.

I've got a Warring States army that needs refurb from a legacy system; I've got Javanese and Ming and Yuan and Post-mongol Samurai. I had Goreo (Goryo, Koryo) Korean but I had to break that down to refurb the Yuan (new scholarship based upon when I built them for a legacy game 20 years ago). Khurasan miniatures has some really nice looking Three Kingdoms figs, IIRC. Gladiator's Warring States are awesome, too.
