So, when someone post pics of their work(and I am talking about the stupid shield with "outa the way, peck" on it, which is a joke requested by a guy for his shield for his knighting) here, they are somehow NOT looking for opinions on said work? Funny, I thought thats was exactly why I posted stuff here and everywhere else I post it. If people have something negative to say about my work, I want to hear it. So that I may improve.
There ARE things I will not make for people. Several that I have been asked for. Becuase they are stupid jokes that rich kids are willing to pay for. If some one wants soemthing that will belittle our sport, they can make it themselves. I don't want their business.
This shield is a perfect example of that concept. To many, many people knighthood is a very serious acomplishment. It is more important than becoming an Eagle Scout, or being recognised by some church group. It is an aknowlegmnet from their peers that they are worthy to be considered a knight among knights.
Making a silly joke out of that belittles everyone else who has been knighted. If I was that guy was my squire, I would withdraw my support and make him go squire under some one else. I think it is utterly disgraceful to make a joke out of it.
BUT, Fitz does make fine shields. The shiell itself is very cool.
