16 Greek Hoplite shield transfers to fit Victrix limited range of ancient Greeks.

These designs work in a slightly different way to the normal LBMS transfers. Normally you prime the shield white underneath.

However these shields are designed to look like metalic Bronze. Paint the shield in a light gold paint such as Games Workshop Burnished Gold or lighter. Apply the transfer and the brown shading of the transfer blends with the metalic colour underneath and gives you a wonderful realistic Bronze effect. To blend the rims to match the transfers simply run a wash of brown ink or use the dip on the rim and the shield will look look great!

If you are varnishing the shield, try not to use matt varnish on the shield as that takes away the metalic lustre. Use somthing like satin as gloss can look a bit plasticy!

Pre-cut - Transfer outline is perforated.

David ★★★★★

I’ve been painting Victrix Greeks for months, and these 16 hoplite designs finally let me give each unit a distinct look without redoing decals. The slightly different application method took a minute to figure out, but the results look crisp and clean on the white primed shields.

Abigail I. ★★★★★

These transfers sit flush on the shield after a quick soak, and the detail on the hoplite patterns stays crisp even over the curved surface. I’ve done three of the sixteen so far, and each one lined up perfectly without any silvering at the edges.

Robert H. ★★★★★

The "normal LBMS transfers" comparison in the description was spot-on—these do apply differently, but once I got the hang of it, the designs really pop on the white-primed shields. I’m glad I picked up a sheet to dress up my Victrix hoplites.
