I'm looking to pay off some college debt. Note me if you want me to draw for you!
_____________

This was a 3D model I made in Maya for my 3D class. I liked how the texture turned out, so I'm posting it in my gallery. It's a shield from the game world that our RPG campaigns are set in; a setting we made up.

Because part of the project was to design it as if it were a video game asset for a game with low-poly, texture-based graphics like WoW or LoL, there's no arm strap on the model itself.

Feel free to use it for your own personal, non-commercial use. But if you post it anywhere, please ask me first.

Great job. I can definitely see some sort of holy character wielding this shield.

Well would it just attach to a character's forearm like a parrying shield or would it be or more of a large kite shield? If this shield was an equipable item in WoW and was lying on the ground it wouldn't have a handle / strap? That would look odd to say the least. Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful shield but without any context regarding scale or handle for example I don't understand it's purpose.

Warcraft shields and the like do not have straps on the back.
This is because it's a lot easier and quicker for the developers to either just model the straps on the character's arm itself, or just not model any at all and have the shield just touching the character's arm rather than trying to create some kind of strap that's holding it up.

Look at character models holding shields in the game, and you'll see that the shield is literally just "floating" above the characters arm with no straps or handles modeled or textured onto the back of them.
