Some interesting stuff, certainly some examples I hadn't seen before. I eagerly await part 2.
Duncn, great find. Downside is I now have to reshape and repaint the sheilds of 3 Chinese armies...
Part 2 is now up - http://greatmingmilitary.blogspot.com/2018/06/evolution-of-shields-in-china-part-2.html - northern/southern dynasties and the Tang.
Duncan, thank you. Really interesting yet again.
And Part 3, Song to Qing:

I shall say it this time, Tim. ;)
Very interesting; thanks, Duncan.
The Ming shield wall is particularly spectacular, and would certainly keep figure painters busy for a while.
