Does anyone know of a (preferably but not necessarily free) stl for figure-of-eight shields that would be suitable for 15mm Hittites?

Something like the shield shown here:

Easy enough to whip up. If no one finds one I could make one.

Done (three versions).

Let me know if they work or need adjustments.

Wow, thank you!

I expect they'll do magnificently – let me get back when I've got them printed and tried them.

I just bought these Hittite STLs from Scropha Miniatures and they all had separate shields:

They are currently 50% on MyMiniFactory using their sale code:

Added a fourth version with a rim.

I don't have time to print these atm, and, imho, it's a little irresponsible to turn these things out on the world untested. So please let me know what happens.

Hi,

After a particularly bad case of Real Life™, I've now gotten them printed and they look like they should work very well. I've scaled them up a little bit to fit better with the figures, which are on the tallish side of 15mm.
