First, You are going to want to draw a Outline of a star in the middle of the plate on the side where you wouldn't eat, with your Black marker.

Then you are going to draw circle connecting all of the points of the star together.

In that space of the circle that doesn't have the star you will color that in with your blue marker.

Then with the rest of the space on the outside you will need to draw three even strips of lines going all the way around the circle.

In strip one you will color it in with red. Make sure you don't go over the lines and that you color everything in.

In strip two you will just leave this empty. This is the white part of his shield.

Then on the last one you will make it red.

Then flip the shield to other side. You also will need to cut two 8 inch pieces of tape and then tape them together.

Next take the combined tape and tape them to the shield. This is where your hand will be going through, so make sure it fits.

So test to make sure your hand can go into it and you can wear it on your arm. If not try making the tape bigger and adjust where it is.
