r/heraldry

Please, if someone could correct this blazon, as English is not my first language and I am not very familiar with the heraldic formula in English.

Quarterly:

1st. Sable, a tower Argent issuant, and surmounted by an oak tree Or.

2nd. Argent, five hearts Gules arranged in saltire, and a label Sable.

3rd. Argent, a bear’s head Sable, langued Gules, and three gouttes Gules in base.

4th. As the first.

In Spanish it should be something like this:

Cuartelado.

1. De sable, una torre de plata naciente, sumada de un roble de oro.

2. De plata, cinco corazones de gules puestos en aspa y, un lambel de sable.

3. De plata, una cabeza de oso de sable lampasada de gules y, tres gotas de gules puestas en punta.

4. Igual al primero.

Coat of arms created for one of the members of Heráldica Brasil.

Portuguese: De verde, semeado de flores-de-lis de ouro; timbre: um arminho de prata coroado de ouro à antiga.

English: Vert semy of fleurs-de-lis Or; crest: an ermine Argent crowned with an antique crown Or.

Français: De sinople semé de fleurs-de-lis d’or ; timbre : une hermine d’argent couronnée d’une couronne antique d’or.

Heyo! Our door knocker has a crest on it and we would love to know the history behind it. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Hello there!

I have been designing my arms for a while now, and this is the current state of it.

I am from Hungary, and to the extent of my knowledge, there are no laws about bearing personal arms here.

Since I've made this using heraldicon, in the future I'll want to recreate it using my own work in Inkscape which is slowly but surely improving.

What do you guys think? Is the proper on the planets and the moon too much?

Feel free to provide feedback.

Blazon

Shield | Vert, a (Common) Kingfisher Proper, wings expanded, crowned with a ducal coronet Or, holding in its claw a judge's gavel Or.

Crest | A (Common) Kingfisher Proper, wings expanded.

Motto | Saevis tranquillus in undis.

My redesign vs. the current one.

I just remembered that I haven't posted this here, it being so postable, I thought I might still rectifiy that oversight. Most of you will already have seen it on the discord, but for those of you that haven't, here you go!

The ornament is of wood anemones, my favourite flower. The troll acts both as a supporter and stikingly accurate self portrait. The arms above my own are those of Bavaria and Dalsland, and the text below is in my own writing system (in case any of you thought you've spontaneously developed dyslexia)

Ink hatching did most of the work, but I cheated a bit by helping the shading with a gray alcohol marker.

Now I only have to get it scanned and printed!

Trying to identify this family
Thanks

Coat of arms of the Malcolm’s of Poltalloch.

Looking to get feedback on my first attempt at making heraldry. Wasn't sure if this was the correct helmet or what to put as a crest. Wanted something simple since I am not nobility.

Is there anything I should add to denote military service or time at war?

Canada's heralds grant standards, guidons, pennons, banners, and other flags to armigers, but to my knowledge they have not prepared a standard for the country (or I guess monarch). Here is my suggestion.

Arms in hoist, per fess argent and gules semy of maple leaves counter changed, fringed compony argent and gules. Divided into sections by bends voided sable bearing the motto. In the first, a beaver sejant tail erect or, the crest in hoist base. In the second a Canadian horse sable and Canada goose proper. The last, a loon proper. In the last, per fess argent four pallets vert, gules, or, and sable, gules a pallet in fly sable. (Points optional).

I used the Tudor and earlier pattern for standards. The badges are the national animals and birds and the maple leaf (of course). The stripes in the fly are from Hudson Bay point blankets, the top one used on a few occasions as national livery at the Olympics!

This was a fun mental exercise.

A new family coat of arms is complete. Carved in low relief on a panel of French walnut.
