constructing and mounting a porpax
#16
Worthwhile to note (worth a laugh, too,) that every technique used on this aspis except the turning of the blank by Dan's dad has been tested on my daughter's Halloween aspis. it's not dished, but it has a porpax and fittings and is covered in layers of linen, 6 layers of gesso, period paints, and some gold leaf:
