Coat of arms depicted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a watercolor finishing.

This is the coat of arms of Abdulelah Alyahya (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), designed by Vittorio Gifra (Italy) under his instructions, revised by Bob Juchter van Bergen Quast (Netherlands) and Kevin D. Couling (United Kingdom), and emblazoned by me (Spain). The arms reflect the heritage of the Alyahya family, descendants of the ancient tribe of Beno Tamim (Altamimi) and linked to the modern origins of Saudi Arabia. These arms exemplify how modern heraldry operates on a global scale, the process involved several countries: a design originating in Italy following the instructions of the armiger in Saudi Arabia, revised by experts in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and rendered by me in Spain, it serves as an example of international collaboration within the field. In English I use the word «motto», but in Spanish I usually use the word «lema»; however, when the text identifies the armiger, as in this case, I use the word «divisa».

Gules, two castles triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable, in chief, seven mullets Argent, 4 and 3.

Arms depicted by me, in flat tinctures, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a texturized finishing.

Coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid emblazoned by me. 5 is the default number of points of the «mullet» in both English and Castilian heraldry. [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 279, figure 126] and [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 312, figure 126] state: «Mullets ordinarily have five rays, or straight points,... when blazoning this figure, the usual practice is to specify the number of rays when exceeding five».

Design rationale

The castles derive from Castile, and the 7 mullets come from the bordure of the city of Madrid; they represent the stars of the Plough, the 7 brightest stars of Ursa Major. This coat of arms was adopted by the Comunidad de Madrid on December 23, 1983. Regarding the symbolism of this coat of arms, José Manuel Huidobro told me: «Each star has five points representing the five provinces surrounding Madrid: Ávila, Segovia, Guadalajara, Cuenca, and Toledo. The castles embody the most characteristic symbol of Castile. Both neighboring communities, Castilla-La Mancha and Castilla y León, display them in their coats of arms. The fact that they are paired symbolizes the Community of Madrid’s claim to serve as a link between the two Castiles». He includes the coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid in his book [Huidobro Moya, J. M.; 2024; page 214].

The coat of arms of Maximilian Silvestri emblazoned by me. In Castilian, I prefer to use the term «almirez» instead of «mortero», as the latter can also refer to a weapon or even a type of cap in heraldic terminology. The word «almirez» has a unique meaning and comes from the Hispano-Arabic «almihrás» or «almihráz», which derives from Classical Arabic «mihras».

Registered by The International Register of Arms, 1^st of December of 2022, Registration number 0690, Volume 4.

In Spanish heraldry, there are three terms for supporters: «sostenes» for objects or plants, «tenantes» for human figures, and «soportes» for animal forms. The following applies to sostenes, tenantes, and soportes. Unlike other heraldic traditions such as English heraldry, in Spanish heraldry there are no rules for the use of supporters; their use is at the armiger's discretion, without specific restrictions. Supporters are not reserved only for nobility; their use is free for all.

R0033: the coat of arms of Antonio Pompili, of Italy, as registered by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this register. In some Italian and Maltese arms registered by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta, two coronets are displayed: the coronet placed directly above the shield represents the armiger’s personal rank or status, while the upper coronet represents the higher noble rank of the family line. Thus, for example, a son of a baron may personally bear the coronet of a noble above his arms, with the baronial coronet of his family displayed above it.

Imaginary blazon of Sir Gawain, knight of the Round Table.

Gules, a mullet voided, interlaced Or.

Illuminated and a freehand finishing.

This five-pointed mullet, depicted as a pentangle, is the symbol Sir Gawain bears on his coat of arms according to the poem «Sir Gawain and the Green Knight» which reads: «Thenne they shewed hym the schelde, that was of schyre goules Wyth the pentangel depaynt of pure golde hwes. He braydez hit by the bauderyk, aboute his hals kestes, That bisemed the segge semlyly fayre. And quy the pentangel apendez to that prynce noble I am entent yow to telle, thof tary hyt me schulde: Hit is a syngne that Salamon set sumquyle In bytoknyng of trawthe, bi tytle that hit habbez, For hit is a figure that haldez fyve poyntez, And vche lyne vmbelappez and loukez in other, And ayquere hit is endelez; and Englych hit callen Oueral, as I here, the endeles knot».

However, in [Anonymous; 1490a; folio 54 verso], which is a French armorial of imaginary heraldry about the «chevaliers de la Table ronde», Sir Gawain, identified in this text as «Messire Gauvain», is depicted with a «shield argent, a double-headed eagle or, beaked, membered and armed azure», unlike the English tradition, which as we have seen, represents him with the pentacle described in the poem «Sir Gawain and the Green Knight».

Gules, a fess between in chief two mullets of eight points Argent flanking a Maltese cross, and in base three bendlets Or. Crest: Upon a helm issuant from a crown of Noble above the shield with a wreath Argent and Gules, a Cirneco dell’Etna hound passant proper, gorged of a collar of meanders motifs Azure and Argent. Mantling: Gules doubled Argent.

G0053: the coat of arms of Giovanni de Bella as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. This photograph shows my hand-drawn Cirneco dell’Etna hound passant, gorged with a collar of meander motifs, alongside the coat of arms in which it appears as the crest. The drawing was executed directly in ink on tracing paper using a fine technical pen, without any preliminary pencil sketch. Two sheets of tracing paper can be seen in the image: an initial version used to establish the proportions and posture of the hound, and a second version in which the design was corrected and refined before its subsequent digital finishing, visible in the final rendering of the complete achievement.

Party per pale: 1 Gules, a bend sinister debruised by an inescutcheon Or charged with a bend Azure charged with five fusils palewise Argent, in base on a triangle Argent the Sacred Heart of Jesus proper [for Adriaensen]; 2 Azure, a fleur de lis Argent above a doe sejeant proper surrounded by twelve mullets in orle Or [granted by Bourbon-Parma].

G0084: the coat of arms of Heidi Garcia-Bosch-de Morales-de Sola née Adriaensen, of France, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. The image combines a photograph of a drawing of a doe sejeant along with her coat of arms, both painted by me. The figures, especially natural charges, are drawn by my hand. I trace them directly in black ink, without preliminary pencil sketches, using strokes as long as possible and trying not to lift the pen, with fine technical pens and without passing twice over the same line. This method produces long, flowing lines that seem to move freely around the figure, but it has one obvious disadvantage: mistakes and retracing are difficult to conceal. When something goes wrong, I usually prefer to complete the whole figure first, so that I can assess the final result and identify any difficult points that may arise towards the end of the drawing. I then draw the entire figure again on a fresh sheet of translucent tracing paper, using the previous version only as a visual guide. It is quite normal for me to repeat this process several times until I obtain a result that satisfies me. This doe is particularly characteristic of my way of drawing natural figures. Curiously, unlike its final appearance in the coat of arms and unlike my usual working orientation, I originally drew it facing the sinister side of the shield and later reversed it digitally before incorporating it into the arms. If the errors are small, however, I do not redraw the whole figure by hand. This may be the case when a line has gone slightly beyond another instead of stopping at it, when my hand has fallen a little short, or when a stroke has wandered away from where I intended it to go. In this photograph, for example, a small imperfection of this kind can be seen on the front leg close to the hoof. Once the drawing has been digitized, I correct these minor defects digitally. Curiously, this cleaning stage usually takes me longer than the original hand drawing. Contrary to what one might expect, at least in my own way of working, the manual part of the process is considerably faster than the digital one.

It has been emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, and with a leather finishing.

Heraldic standard of Marcio Vieira Nastri emblazoned by me. Structure: his coat of arms; his heraldic badge; the 1^st line of his motto «Incipit Vita»; his crest; the 2^nd line of his motto «Nova»; and his badge. I usually do not blazon standards; I only describe their structure, since the coat of arms, the badge, and the crest they normally bear are already known as those of the armiger. However, in this case I have blazoned the standard with details from the hoist to the fly. The hoist is the part attached to the mast, and the fly is the part that waves freely and in this case ends in a swallow-tail, although this is an artistic detail I have not blazoned. For the specification of this blazon I use brackets for each of the parts, for example, the blazon of the arms, the blazon of the badge, or the blazon of the crest. In this case I have repeated the blazon of the second occurrence of the badge, but I could have avoided it by referring back to the first. It is unusual to find such a detailed specification of a standard. This standard of Marcio Vieira Nastri, emblazoned by me, is registered and published in The International Register of Arms, 13th August 2026, registration number 0812, volume 5, armorialregister.com/arms-br/nastri-mv-arms.html.

Coat of arms of Her Excellency Ratu Muda Malka Bas Reuven emblazoned by me with a shape known as a vesica piscis, and with the blazon written in English and Castilian in a structured way to observe the parallelism between both forms. My experience is that if shield shapes are named after countries, this creates problems in an international context. For example, if the shield with a rounded base is called a «Spanish shield», sooner or later someone will point out that the same shape is also used in Portugal, Hungary, or Poland, making it not exclusively Spanish. For this reason, I avoid assigning shield shapes names based on countries or kingdoms and instead give them names that describe their formal characteristics, which is not always easy. For example, I call the «semi-circular shield» in English and «escudo de medio punto» in Castilian to the commonly referred as «Spanish», or the «ogee shield» one that ends in an inverted ogee arch, «conopial» in Castilian. Despite this, at some point, breaking my own rule, I used the term «Bantu» to refer to the almond-shaped shield, only to be quickly corrected and informed of its connection to other African kingdoms. My mistake was not using the name I had always given it: «mandorla» in Castilian and «vesica piscis» in English.

Argent, flanched Sable, in chief a mullet of six points Gules.

Escudo de plata, flanqueado curvo de sable, en jefe una estrella de seis rayos de gules

Coat of arms interpreted with: a semicircular (round) base; illuminated in the tinctures Argent, Gules, and Sable; all outlined in Sable; and finished with a raised-stroke effect.

[Avilés, J.; 1725a; pages 92 and figure 197] blazons it as «Argent, and a six-pointed star Gules in chief, flanched in oval Sable». When he illustrates it in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; figure 197], the space left between both flanches is only 1/5 of the base of the coat of arms; this is feasible because the only charge is a mullet in chief. If there were more charges, it would be necessary to leave more space, for example, 1/3 of the base of the shield.

«Oschoven au Rhein» in the book [Menestrier, C. F.; 1659; page 315], it is blazoned «d'argent flanqué arrondi de sable à vne molette de mesme en chef», so the mullet would be Sable, bacause «de mesme» is written, and with a hole in the middle, this hole does not exits in other sources.

In the book [Rietstap, J. B.; 1861], it is blazoned «Argent, flanched in round Sable, Argent charged in chief of a mullet Gules», and in French «d'argent, flanqué en rond de sable, l'argent chargé en chef d'une étoile de gueules».

Some time ago I used to blazon it in English as «Argent, in chief a mullet of six points Gules, between two flanches Sable».

Canting arms of Dolores Peregrina Corona designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and me and emblazoned by me. 5 is the default number of points of the «mullet» in both English and Castilian heraldry. [Friar, S.; 1987; page 35] states: «a mullet is always depicted as having five points, a six-pointed mullet should be blazoned a Mullet of six points»; likewise, [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 279, figure 126] and [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 312, figure 126] state: «Mullets ordinarily have five rays, or straight points,... when blazoning this figure, the usual practice is to specify the number of rays when exceeding five». In Castilian heraldic tradition, the «adiestrado» ~ «tierce» used in this coat of arms and its symmetrical «siniestrado» ~ «tierce sinister» are «irregular divisions of the field by one line» ~ «particiones irregulares». That is why I use «tierce» and «tierce sinister» in English. There is another possibility, which is to call the «adiestrado» ~ «pale in dexter flank» and the «siniestrado» ~ «pale in sinister flank», thus ceasing to be a type of «divisions of the field» ~ «particiones» and becoming «ordinaries» ~ «piezas fundamentales». This has implications, as the rule of tinctures would apply if it were considered a «pale» ~ «palo». In any case, I will write the blazon in both ways. Alternative blazon: Azure, a dexter arm vested, issuant from sinister, grasping a pilgrim's staff palewise, issuant from base, tied to it a gourd bendwise; on a pale in dexter flank Argent two keys points upwards, in saltire, between in chief an escallop, and in base a mullet of five points environed at dexter by a crescent bendwise azure.

Design rationale

These are canting arms because her surname is «Peregrina» ~ «pilgrim», and her coat of arms depicts the arm of a pilgrim, as she is one herself, with her staff and her gourd for carrying water, advancing towards the dexter, in order to reach the destination of her three most important life pilgrimages: Santiago de Compostela, Rome, and Jerusalem. Following [Petra Sancta, S.; 1634; pages 417–418], in seventeenth-century academic emblematics the staff symbolizes the road understood as an intellectual journey, proper to a traveller who appears humble yet is rich in knowledge, while the gourd, which may seem empty, represents the wisdom preserved within it and from which learning ultimately emerges.

My heraldic Pixiv wall is Dr.A.Salmeron @antoniosheraldry and pixiv.me/antoniosheraldry.

Pixiv is a Japanese online community for artists. I post in Pixiv 2 or 3 coats of arms per week. They use a strict form to post with many mandatory input fields. This week, they have added a new mandatory field «AI-generated work: Yes / No», AI ~ Artificial Intelligence. In the image, I have highlighted this new field in red.

My animation of the coat of arms of Juan Lanzagorta reached position 33 in Pixiv’s daily Ugoira animation ranking. I am very happy about this, as it is not easy to achieve.

Argent, a cross patty Gules, cantoned of four mullets of eight points Azure; on a chief Sable, an elephant passant Or. Motto: «Prior tempore potior iure»

Escudo de plata, una estrecha patada de gules, cantonada de cuatro estrellas de ocho puntas de azur; en un jefe de sable, un elefante pasante de oro. Lema: «Prior tempore potior iure»

Coat of arms of the RIAG interpreted with: a pointed base; the field illuminated in Argent; the chief illuminated in Sable; the motto illuminated in Argent with letters in Sable; the narrow cross illuminated in Gules; the 4 eight-pointed stars illuminated in Azure; the cross and the stars outlined in Sable; the elephant illuminated in Or and outlined of the field; the motto outlined in Sable, written in the same colour and illuminated in Argent; and the whole with a rough finish.

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 113] writes «Paté, se dice de las Cruces, cuyos extremos se ensanchan un poco. Viene esta voz de la latina patula, cosa extendida, ó dilatada», and in this way uses the term «Cruz paté», instead of cruz patada, in [Avilés, J.; 1780a; páginas 60, 91, 92, 127 y 297]. In the blazon at escueladeheraldica.es/armorial-riag-pagina-1 the term «crus estrecha paté de gules» is also used, although I have preferred to use in this blazon the equivalent expression «una estrecha patada de gules».

Its Latin motto «Prior tempore potior iure» means that whoever comes first in time has more right than whoever comes after, and naturally refers to the concept of registration, since, in general, the person who registers a coat of arms first has more right to defend its ownership than the person who registers the same coat of arms after the first.
