A good source of Scorpion images is the Perseus project: Vases Database.
The Mora of the Skorpion was "old landholdings" so you need black shield with 2 white scorpions. Their eyes can be red.
Your personal image in the center can be anything.
The same applies for the inner rim.
Spartans being Doreans had three tribes so the outer shield edge will be:
Hylleis (wave pattern), Pamfiloi (spiral pattern) Dymanes (menander pattern)
There were also some free Acheans also with a triangular pattern
Hope it helps.
Kind regards
