I specifically used "creations" for that very reason. If you made it and want to show it off to GSP crew and listeners, go right ahead. If you play League of Legends, think of this as art/item submission section the Summoner Showcase series on youtube.
Being as i don't larp, How strong is that sheild? Is it only taking like the misc bean bag hit or something or is it taking thwacking. Either way I thought it was Steel at first glance.
Also is the detail carved into it, or did you cut it out of a sheet than glue it ontop?
Also that volley gun looks like it would make quite the melee weapon
The shield is about 2" thick foam similar to the foam that camping mats are made of, glued in 3 layers. If a real weapon were to hit it, it would probably bend and flex and come apart, or be heavily cut up, but it regualarly takes a beating from LARP weapons. The Volley Gun is darned heavy - there's about £60 worth of off cut piping and assorted plumbing bits in there, so if it hit someone it would hurt. (The trigger is off an old wheel lock pistol, and the Stock is from an old rifle, the front furniture I had to made myself from a scrap of wood in the shed.
