Look at the vanilla shield's code, create your own custom item class, register your item + the model (JSON), and you're done

You are in the wrong place for this question.

This is a support forum not a teaching forum.

If you have specific questions, feel free to ask them. "I don't know how to do it" is not a specific question.

 

If you are new to modding you should start with something simpler than a shield.

Make yourself familiar with item models, rendering and animations first, then when you are more comfortable with basic modding, have a go at the shield.

 

Some "light" reading for you. 🙂

https://forge.gemwire.uk/wiki/BlockEntityWithoutLevelRenderer

https://forge.gemwire.uk/wiki/Custom_Item_Animations

You should make yourself familiar with everything on that wiki. At least to the point where you can lookup details when you need them.
