G0116, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant for the arms of Andrew Ronald McMillan Bell of Auchinreoch, United Kingdom. These arms have been emblazoned by me for such grant. The English term «terraced», sometimes used in blazon, is equivalent to the term «compartment». In Castilian blazon we use the term «terrazado», in this case as an element outside the shield, while «terrazado» also exists inside the shield in base.

Arms interpreted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a freehand finishing.

The coat of arms of Jean-Christophe Loubet del Bayle emblazoned by me. This wolf, being depicted in gules, might have been blazoned as «flayed». In this regard, [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; page 187] writes: «A curious term, of the use of which I know only one example, is fleshed or flayed. This, as doubtless will be readily surmised, means that the skin is removed, leaving the flesh gules». Accordingly, it might have been described as «a wolf passant flayed» ~ «un lobo pasante escorchado». [Royal Spanish Academy; 2014] defines the heraldic expression «lobo escorchado» as «lobo de color de gules, que es el que se da a este animal cuando se representa como si estuviera desollado». More generally, [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 2002; page 86, illustrations 511 and 512] defines «escorchado» as «animal desollado o desplumado» and adds that «se le representa siempre de gules», which is not applicable in this case, as it is entirely unrelated to the symbolism of this coat of arms, as is the case with most animals depicted in gules; one may think, for example, of the lion in the arms of Scotland, which is Gules and by no means flayed.
