Well bud as a long time poser user all that i can tell you is that you will always have items that just don't work right from different angles. so the real trick to it is to make the viewer see it as you want them too. in other words if the shield does not look good from the back then only grant them the view that looks best after you have moved it to where you want. Believe it or not but alot of the great art seen ont this site is created that way. Most if you were to change the view you would see things like gloves that do not really cover the hand or perhaps a dress that just does not sit well on the figure. Well I am glade to see that you are trying to learn and if you need any help then please let me know via the mail thing. i hope this helps you out.
