Japanese Takeda-clan pavise

thingiverse

A pavise, utilized in Japan during the Sengoku Jidai or the era of constant warfare, was a crucial tool primarily employed during sieges but also saw use in open battles. It was carried by both archers and arquebusiers. This specific pavise boasts the Takeda-clan crest on its front side and features a functional, hinged support at the rear. The STL files are designed for 10mm figures; however, the SCAD model is fully parametric, allowing users to modify the "man" variable in the top of the file to their desired figure height in millimeters before recompiling. Additionally, an edited version of Erik's bride from Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3495) has been incorporated for scale purposes; simply comment out the SCAD code if you wish to use the pavise independently.
