Wow. Now just tidy up a bit of fuzziness on the outlines of the helmet and wings and you've got a real winner there! That looks great. The wings especially are well realized.

The new version does look more medieval. I have to agree that it looks better. And yeah, it could probably use a little clean-up too.

You're going to leave the helmet as is? It's edges look rather pixelated.

But that's fine if you're done. You've done a lot on this shield already, and it DOES look great.

Here's a pic of the sticker printed and on a shield and on a knight http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fores ... knight.jpg

You can zoom up to 200% without it getting pixely/grainy

The SW helmet doesn't work for me. If you could give the guy a standard grill helmet, that would match better with the shield motif (which looks great).

It looks like the guy has other weapons on his back. Any pics?

I knida liked the scout trooper helmet. I tried on a ointed visor on just to broaden his look though. And he had no other weapons other than a custom sword. Here are more pics of him http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fores ... night2.jpg

Okay, I really like this. The contrast of the visor to the helmet is really sharp -- I have some custom knights with the same idea (white, red, blue, and dk.grey but no pics yet). Now I see what I thought were other weapons - the 'hand' add-ons to the sword. Interesting.
