RP Logs: 14:54:19 - **Sgt. Troy 'Horny' Hughes turned up his torch, he starts to cut bits and pieces off some of the metal plating. He would cut off the edges and then put the plating together, next to each other and then weld the pieces together. He started using a mallet, hammering the shield to round it out slowly.
14:56:22 - **Sgt. Troy 'Horny' Hughes took out more metal plating, slowly floating over to the shield. He continued to take off small parts off the edges and rounding out the metal before placing it to the shield like a puzzle, welding it to the shield itself.
15:10:02 - **Sgt. Troy 'Horny' Hughes grabbed the sander from the cupboard, going back to the shield. He slapped in a portable battery and loaded in a 60 grit sand paper. He turns it on and starts sanding on the weld marks, sparks shooting out on his body and pass him as he continued to sand. After some time, he took off the 60 grit and put on a 80 grit, continuing to sand down the weld marks down to make it more flesh to the shield, humming quietly to himself. Afterwards he threw off the 80 grit and places on the 125 grit, giving the shied a real good sand over to smooth it out nicely so the weld marks weren't visible. He unplugged the sander and blew the shards off the shield, if there was any.
15:26:39 - **Sgt. Troy 'Horny' Hughes put down the a bucket of blue paint. He took out a large brush, dipping it into the paint and placed it on the shield, slathering it around the shield in big marking style. He would start to fill out the blank spaces with the blue paint until the entire front of the shield was covered. He waited for the light coat of paint to dry before grabbed the white paint and opening the lid, dabbing in a smaller brush into the paint and started making a wolf/Nordic design onto the front. He seemed much more careful with his actions, taking a wet rag and rubbing away the unwanted paint. He let the first layer dry before adding a new layer, letting it dry also.
