Making the Actual Shield

Get a big piece of cardboard preferably without folds like mines. Then draw to the best of your ability a shield, next cut out the outline with a box cutter so you get something like the image above

Making the Handle

Using the same piece of cardboard cut out a long rectangular piece with your box cutter, then bend it so it's like an inverted C and hot glue it onto the back of the shield so it looks like a D.

Painting

Paint the entire front of the shield black, then paint a crisscross pattern in the middle red. Paint the outline of the shield gray if you want
