A ? for the collective – which shield transfers from LBMS work best on the Old Glory Spanish figs? Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I always tell customers when they want to use transfers for Spanish and Gauls etc… you will not get very good fits from them on shields they are not designed for. The spines, boss and shield shapes vary so much from manufacturer to manufacturer you will either have to trim a lot or fill quite a few areas.
My recommendation is always to buy some shield packs from a manufacturer I do make Spanish transfers for, such as Gripping Beast, A&A Miniatures or Crusader miniatures and swap out the shields of your OG figures with those and use the transfers. Also this way you get a greater variety of shield shape and transfer design. Shield packs are pretty cheep.
