Complete mess after a few layers, beginner needs help :)
Hi everyone, I'm new to 3d printing and have just managed to get a good first layer down of my very own design.
After running for about 30 minutes my print went complete haywire, I suspect shortly after starting with the supports. I wasn't there to witness it but see the photos below:

Does anyone have any idea where to look next? Should I look at my printer settings, or at my design?
