I thought this was a cool idea, hopefully you'll like it! I put a lot of effort into this! I'm happy with how the shield turned out. I'll be doing a lot more with my shields too... I made a black and white version as well. BW
Sweet, Wicked job bro!! One suggestion though - for the black and white image. Try this. 1. New Layer on top of everything. 2. Edit > Apply Image 3. Set it to Overlay 4. Play with the opacity till you get what you like. This will add depth to the image, and is one of my favorite techniques.
