Finaly finished the shield ! Ddo is a cool thing but you really have to tweak a lot to get something different from the first result. Next time, better basemesh with all your advice, and trying harder to avoid some stylization. Thank to all of you for yours encouragements, advices and sweet replies.
@Dustbinbrown You're totally right about taking a real reference to help me avoid stylization. My sculpt is not that real so of course all is based on.

Next step :* Finnish the plywood and add some glue to it. * Oak Beam. * Small intermediate beam between oak beam. * Upper part of the sheet rock. * A wall with a plinth and a…
