Improving my faire kit
Sir Wolf:
hmm ok thanks.
what type of paint should I use that would be the best on teh shield? enamel? milk paint? etc?
Sir Edward:
What level of authenticity are you going for?
For my shield, I did the stenciling with enamel spray-paints (Painter's Touch stuff from Home Depot).

Epoxy paint maybe more expensive but OH so worth it. It is what is on
Ed's and my shields. The link has a wide assortment of colors and comes
in quarts! ;D
The size of my griffon crest is approximately 6.5" H x 8" W x 9" L, but that
is including the outspread wings. It is also hollow and made of vinyl so it
is nearly as light as the type of leather crest Ed has and I have as an
alternate.
Here is some other possible crests.

The dragon was 2 pounds maybe. I never weighed it. The leather one is crazy light. A few ounces at most.
