I was trying to make these knights fancier than the lesser knight I made earlier. One thing I noticed on earlyblazon is that if the shield had a creature on it then the background was rather plain. I feel like what I did here was workable.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-13182695154024075402018-01-16T06:04:44.104-07:002018-01-16T06:04:44.104-07:00They look good.

I sometimes think it would be not a bad notion to maintain a 'register' of nobility and their coats of arms. I'm not sure whether your first one counts as 'per chevron gules and or (... a stag's head erased argent), or the fourth one 'sable, on a pile or ( a lion rampant azure)'. <br /><br />Thought I'd try my hand at describing the others: <br />'Azure, two bendlets sinister argent, an eagle displayed gules'.<br />'Quarterly azure and gules, a lion sejant erect or.'<br />'Argent, a bull rampant sable.' <br />Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-77188682752895329822018-01-15T10:15:57.051-07:002018-01-15T10:15:57.051-07:00Looking very good :)Looking very good :)Michal DwarfCrypthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915669873652904866noreply@blogger.com
