I've just uploaded the "ItemRightShields" set to the HeroMachine 3 Alpha for your protection. I am sure you will find something insane and creative to do with these beyond using them as a blocking device, of course. Here's a quick shot of the non-standard ones:

After these are four sets of twelve matched shields in four different shapes. Each shape has the same set of twelve patterns for it, following Mark's example in the 2.5 Expansion -- shiny, vertical line, horizontal line, diagonal line, chevron, four quadrants, bordered, middle stripe vertical, middle stripe horizontal, middle stripe diagonal, cross, and diagonal quadrants. Hopefully that will give you all the variety you'll need to make that perfect Knight (do I smell a contest for that?!).
Let me know in the comments if you find any bugs with this new set.
I'll be moving on to Neckwear this weekend, after nailing down any problems with that last bunch, so by all means make any requests for specific items in that slot you'd want to see. As usual, I'll be converting over all the 2.x stuff for that slot, so you can skip those suggestions.
I've said this in comments before, but it's probably a good idea to lay out here explicitly as well. Your best shot at getting a specific item request into the program is to leave it in the comments to the post where I ask for them, ideally with a link to an image on the web somewhere of what you're talking about. If I'm looking for shield ideas, it's pretty much a waste of time for you to post a request for a helmet, because by the time I get back around to Headgear I'm going to forget what you said. Damien might make some difference on that score, but still, your best shot is to give me a link to what you want at the time I'm actually working on that slot.
Thanks as always for your suggestions in the past and I look forward to more great ones to come! Hope you like the shields, too.
They look good Jeff but for some reason I’m still not able to pull up the new weapons you added the other day. I try clearing out cookies and everything I can thiank of. So far no go.
I do have the shields.
You mean the Ranged ones? Or the new addition to BladesTwo that I added for the contest winners? Anyone else having a problem with that?
I can’t imagine why you’d be able to get the new stuff but not the new weapons Hammerknight. Are you sure you’re looking in ItemRightBladesTwo for them?
Wow, this is just BEGGING for a Create-Your-Own-Coat-Of-Arms mini. I’ve looked online in the past (when I did political roleplay) for something like that and have never found it.
I’m looking in the right place item right blade two. Isia had them on her computer but I still don’t.

Well, I think these would be a good addition to the shields category
1) A shield with blades around it (from Mortal Combat The Movie):

@Cailean: I cleverly hid a clue as to which items are next in my post. It’s somewhere in the sentence “I’ll be moving on to Neckwear this weekend…”
🙂
Nice shields Jeff. Any chance some of these might make it into the program? I’ve sorted through a bunch of different types of shield, and think I’ve managed to sort out the ones that both look really awesome and cool:

jeff did i say something wrong my neck request got erased
i asked for cybernetic steel tubes as a neck piece
oops i posted it in the wrong place sorry jeff have a cookie
Jeff those items show up now.
Nice job on the Shields Jeff, but I noticed the boomshield I requested didn’t make it. Just passed on it?
Also will jewelry be included in neckwear? Or would it be included in its own slot afterward?
Hey, Solander, sorry I missed getting your post in here sooner. It got sent to the Spam file, and I didn’t notice it until just before I went to bed. I’ll make sure that Jeff notices them if he doesn’t himself.
A big polka-dotted clown tie.
A severed hangman’s noose.
Everything from HM2.5.
Would a spiked leather collar work on the HM3 pose?
A severed hand (Good for the monster hunters.).
A rubbery Reed Richards/Plastic Man/Elastic Lad/Elongated Man neck (Did I get everybody?).
I agree for few high tech shield models.
I would also an energy shield and more fantasy shield models :

Jeff,
Can you make a version of the shield found in the horror section with out the skull on it?
I have to agree with Paul. I thought that shield looked awesome for elves, but the skull kinda kills the illusion.
again solanders and especially RSC5 got some great ideas, and I’m 1/16 Cherokee so this stuff means a lot too me. henceforth i second BOTH and ALL of thier requests. anyone else with me on these two’s requests’?
@JR: Holy crap, man! I’m a 1/16th Cherokee too! Shoulda looked up more specific stuff to go with that, but my laptop right now is just not even worth messing with. Almost crashed on that last list.
Yes, good suggestions from RSC5 and Solander, and I am working on the last one of theirs that I am going to make right now. The buffalo hide shield came out great IMHO, can’t wait to put it up for you guys.
Since I’m on the actual good computer right now and more than a little bored…last batch. Honest. I just feel like variety is the spice of life and maybe these’ll give you some more detailed ideas for a later expansion set or two. Especially now with the headshot function.

Hey Jeff, since you’re still on the shields, could you separate the energy shield from the emitter? I think the color scheming would look a lot better if they were different items…
if i have my piece of paper with me i can read and write in Cherokee lol. gotta go get my bike fixed. will be back.

I know you are done with the shields now but if you happen to re-visit them in the future I have a suggestion. SHields with a blank area are very useful for placing insignia or logo’s on. Of course there are ways around it but they are bulky.
Awesome designs! Got the brain juice flowing.
