Blood Eagle: Thorstein All Done!

Took me some extra time, as I had to figure out, how to use the Little Big Men Studios shield sticker, and then, as the stickers for Gripping Beast plastic shields do not really fit that very shield with the javelins and no leather rim, what I wanted to do about the rim.

I finally decided to paint on a rim, similar to the sculpted rims on the standard shields (I seriously contemplated sculpting it on, but decided that it would be too much hassle).
