ElectricPaladin Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Hi everyone. I've decided to build a boarding/zone mortalis focused captain for my Terminus Guard's 2nd company. I want to give him a storm shield, but I thought it would be awesome to model the shield as a boarding shield, like breachers carry. Since the name of the game is Warhammer 40k awesome, that's what I'm going to do. The trouble is that actually finding a boarding shield bit has proved to be a much less than awesome process. Has anyone got any ideas where I can find a boarding shield? I'm also investigating getting the same Shapeways genius who designed my shoulder pads to design me a boarding shield with my chapter symbol on it... but all the same - and just in case he turns me down, it's not like I'm paying him - I'd like to see what else is out there. Thanks. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318402-sourcing-boarding-shields/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-CA/Space-Marine-Boarding-Assault-Upgrade-Set ? Otherwise you'd probably be better off finding a FW bitz seller :x Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318402-sourcing-boarding-shields/#findComment-4281147 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlson793 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Check The Forges of Mars thread. We've got a large collection of bits sellers listed there. Quick search through those shows shields available from Anvil Industry, Kromlech, MaxMini, Puppets War, Spellcrow, and Zinge Industries.

ElectricPaladin Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 My favorite, cheapest, best source: http://victoriaminiatures.highwire.com/product/riot-shields-x5 There we go! That's what I'm looking for. Okay. If my Shapeways guy fails me, I've got another option. Thanks.

sockwithaticket Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Joel said he'll be doing new boarding shields at some point for Anvil, he's not massively happy with the old designs.

CaptainStabby Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 There's also these, they are Termie sized though. I just pinged the guy on FB about getting a couple sets. I may use them as Siege Mantlets for a 40k siege army. http://thepaintingbunker.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/storm-shield-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318402-sourcing-boarding-shields/#findComment-4302449 Share on other sites More sharing options...
