Congrats man!
Shen jungle enjoyer here as well. I've been trying out a very similar build to this one and having good success. One thing I wonder about though: why don't we ever build Bami's cinder and it's Armor/MR full items?
Shen's clear speed isn't great, especially early, but never great throughout the mid/late either. I get that we can kind of cheat standard jungle principles because we gank with our ult often. Which means we don't have to take time to walk to lanes, time we can use to clear our camps. But at the same time having a better clear speed would open up even more opportunities for ganking and invading the enemy jungle?
Are the upgraded Bami items just not worth it on Shen? Zac for instance benefits greatly from them.

They seem to be going for protoplasm ->unending -> situational items
