Mailing a scutum paint job

Ship it flat, sandwhiched twixt two luan panels, appropriate padding,

But then, shipping would be about the same as shipping the scutum (without umbo)

Yes the point is to reduce the shipping cost although that method would
only require one way shipping. Perhaps between two cardboard sheets
would be lighter and cheaper. I think if rolled were possible that would be the cheapest method. Now thinking of just a test piece of painted canvas
(not expending the effort to make it nice) to try shipping it.
Anyone outside the US willing to receive the package and then post a photo
of the result?
