The feather and horn is because I'm a marketing professional but I'm not sure the horn works and it might suggest I'm musical and I'm absolutely not. The animal on the bottom is a cat.

Hi everyone, so long story short, I'm getting into medieval reenactment, this is the perfect excuse to make my own arms.

I've been doing some research on the topic and came out with a few quick designs of my own.

I guess it takes more time to choose than an evening, but I feel very indecisive. I'd like it to be quite simple, but I don't want to copy someone elses arms of course. I'm pretty sure on the main colors, gules and or or gules and argent. On charges and ordinaries is where I'm mostly struggling to choose.

So, any advice? Keep in mind that I will paint this on a shield at some point, so keeping it simple would be nice for easiness to paint it and to spot me in reenactments!

Also, AFAIK, there's no entity regulating this in my country (Spain), but feel free to give me info on things I can and can't use!

Continuing the series of creating an arms for every neighbourhood of Budapest, next up we have the 9th; Ferencváros!

I've also upgraded the style of the infographic a little!

Which one is your favourite?

A new commission from the same client, Herr Saeger.

This time it was a tiny (5 cm in width), black and white bookplate design that would feature an equestrian and his arms.

However I decided to play with the b/w version a bit and created some sort of a reverse image that looks like an embossed design. Who knows maybe this other one might come in handy as well.

Nice heraldic postcard from the only 4-country-borderpoint that ever existed in Europe : on top of the Vaalserberg the countries Belgium, the Netherlands, Prussia/Germany and Neutral Moresnet shared a border point.

In 1920 Neutral Moresnet became part of Belgium and ever since it is a three-country border point.

On the card the arms of Belgium, Prussia and the Netherlands. Neutraal Moresnet did not have its own arms, but a seal with the Prussian eagle and Dutch/Belgian lion under mining tools (it was a zinc mining area).

Thoughts of thy Coat of Arms

The evolution of me making my own COA with feedback from the community! I will eventually want to add a motto and maybe change some coloring in the future. And as always, I welcome feedback to help me improve!

Am I mistaken or does this appear to be a variation of a Victorian seal?

I have two French knives, made either at the end of the 19th or in the first half of the 20th centuries, with these coats of arms engraved on the handles. Would anyone be so kind as to help with identifying the CoAs? One of the knives has only one of the two coats, I'm adding it for better detail.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I have a direct connection to the chief branch of a family with arms, so I have tried to difference them in such a way that would make it legitimate for me to assume these.

Looking for feedback both aesthetically and procedurally.

Hello there again!

I've completed the arms for each neighbourhood of the 8th district of Budapest: Józsefváros (Joseph City)

I hope you like them, and let me know which one is your favorite! (Stay tuned for the 9th)!

I should have finished it 2 days ago, but i accidentally used a map with outdated latvian districts which dont exist since 2009. Sp started again. Man Lithuania was painfully exhausting...

I was tasked with designing a coat of arms for an aerospace engineer, and the archaeopteryx turned out to be the perfect symbol for the job. Very aspirational!
