Compatibility: Sized exclusively to fit Gripping Beast Pagan Rus miniatures for Saga. Packaging: Protective paper backing enclosed in a clear sleeve for damage-free online delivery. Sheet Dimensions: Measures 2.25” W x 4.8” L. Tip: For the cleanest banner application, fold the paper banner around a brass pin rod before applying water. To apply shield transfers, brush the shield faces with a coat of gloss varnish or white primer—this prevents air bubbles and silvering beneath the film, ensuring smooth edge adhesion. Recommended Essentials The Perfect Canvas: Apply these transfers directly to your Gripping Beast Pagan Rus plastic or metal box sets to transform standard infantry into distinguished hearthguard units. The Finisher: Once dry, seal the shields and banner with a thin coat of matte varnish, followed by a light brown wash to simulate battle grime and aged leather. Customization Tip: Pair these Eastern Viking designs with Gamers Grass tufts to match the rugged steppe and woodland terrain of the Kievan Rus. Maintenance & Care: Use a clean, damp cotton swab to gently press from the center outward, removing excess water during application.
