That's really nice Ron! Not too many people are familiar with the Livonian order - I always loved the cross and sword on their shield - so its really cool that you did one. Nice print - what's a knight without a dent or two? - seriously, it's easy to leave pocks when peeling away supports. The paint job is great and the stand really makes it come to life.
Hey Jeff, Thanks heaps mate and I've only started reading about them in the last two weeks and find in very interesting and when I was going thru the figure files I saw the shield and straight away purchased it.
I'm really loving the 3D printer and the supports were medium and spoke to a friend and he told me to use small and see how that goes, so finger crossed I won't have any more issues.

Cool about your new "discovery" of the Livonian Order. I've had historical interest in the Crusading Orders since I was a child, after reading Ivanhoe (I think), so its an area of interest for me. I'm always happy when someone else gets a little fascinated by these groups.
Also, I asked my son about supports - he has printed a lot of 28mm figures on his printers (he's got two different resin printers). He customizes all his supports. He said that he has found most .stl files are over supported and he would rather two smaller supports in place of one larger to solve exactly the "pocking" issue you are dealin with. Anyway, thought I'd let him "chime in."
