By the way, don't think that I'm picking on you here, I see this trend in a lot of the Chinese themed items where it's just taking the Chinese theme but not taking into consideration the character for which it's made. You always have to put the thing that you're making into the context of the character, not the other way…
Spudnik is trying to say that your shield doesn't fit DKs shape language and flow. Your shield is too soft and round and even the dragon face doesn't fit with DKs angular and pointy look. It's a nice idea to incorporate the Chinese theme but the execution just isn't working
