Coat of arms of Tomasz Arkadiusz Grzeszkowiak designed by Tomasz Steifer and interpreted by me in 4 approaches: 1) outlined; 2) tricking, using abbreviations; 3) hatching, using dots and lines; and 4) plain tinctures. The Polish heraldist Tomasz Steifer was one of the creators of International Heraldry Day. This coat of arms follows the Polish heraldic tradition, you can notice the color Vert over the color Gules, and also for them the Sable is not a color, then they can place a serpent Sable over the color Vert. The Serpent symbolizes the defeated Evil thus it looks at the Sinister in my interpretation.

Coat of arms of Albrecht Dürer, 1471-1528, emblazoned by me based on the woodcut titled «Coat of Arms of Albrecht Dürer» made by Albrecht Dürer himself in 1523 on a sheet measuring 35.1 × 26.1 cm belonging to The Elisha Whittelsey Collection, The Elisha Whittelsey Fund, 1952, held at the Metropolitan Museum of New York, and on the work titled «Marriage Coat of Arms of the Families Duerer and Holper. Verso of the Albrecht Dürer the Elder portrait», dated 1490; Albrecht Dürer the Elder, 1427–1502, was his father.
The Dürer family coat of arms is an example of canting arms. Their family origin traces back to Ajtós, Hungary, a name which means «door» or «doorman» in Hungarian. Upon settling in Nuremberg, the family Germanized their surname to «Türer», derived from «Tür», meaning «door», and later to Dürer. This is the reason of the main charge of these arms.

Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules. Crest: An open royal crown Or.
Escudo de plata, un león rampante de púrpura, armado y lampasado de gules. Timbrado de una corona real abierta.
Arms of the King interpreted as follows: the escutcheon is finished in a semi-circular arch; both the field, the lion, and the crown of the crest have been illuminated; and the ensemble has a hammered metal finish.
In the following image, I show a miniature from the Tumbo A of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, from the 13th century, with the heading reading «Inclitus:Adeffonsus:Rex:Legionensium:et Gallecie:», combined with my interpretation of his coat of arms. The lion of the Kingdom of León can be found depicted in both purple and gules, but images like this confirm that it is purple, and I particularly favor the purple, as it makes it historically unique.

This was a brotherhood founded by the Burgos citizens at the time of King Alfonso XI of Castilla, 1311-1350.

This ancient coat of arms of Castile can be consulted, among other sources, in [Argote de Molina, G.; 1588; chapter XLII].

Coat of arms of the King Alfonso X of Castile, 1221–1284, 1st son of the King Ferdinand III of Castile, 1199-1252, and the Queen Beatrice of Swabia, 1205–1235. The order of the quarters is first the castle of his grandmother, Queen Berenguela of Castile, and second the lion of his grandfather, King Alfonso IX of León; however, the other day I discovered that on the map by [Martineau du Plessis, D.; 1700; volume II, illustration 30, page 126], in the shield framed between parallels 37 and 36 and meridians 21 and 22, the lion occupies the 1st quarter and the castle the 2nd quarter; that is, their order appears reversed.

Quarterly: 1 and 4 Gules, a castle triple towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable; 2 and 3 Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules.
Armories of the Wise King of Castile interpreted by me with the following characteristics: the external shape of the coat of arms ends in an ogee arch; the field, the 2 castles, and the 2 lions are outlined and enameled in flat colors; and the texture seems fabric.
This coat of arms, but with a pointed external shape, can be seen in the 2nd part of the so-called armorial [Wijnbergen; 1265; cuat of arms number 1,289], with the title «Le roy Despaingne», which in this context is understood to refer to Castilla y León.
The 2nd part of this armorial was made between 1270 and 1285 and, being Alphonse X king of Castile and Leon from 1252 to 1284, it is to Him that the title «Le roy Despaingne» seems to refer.

For its better identification, I have painted the millstone with the ring that fixes it to its axis. This ring is called a millrind, it is made of iron, and usually has 4 arms to better fix the millstone. Millrinds may appear on coats of arms independently of millstones. Another heraldic element related to the previous ones is the millwheel, which is a toothed gear that is part of the mill mechanism but should not be confused with the millstone that grinds the grain.

Azure, a wolf's head caboshed Argent, in chief three monstrances in fess proper. Motto: «Fiat Voluntas Tua».
A mug featuring the coat of arms and motto of Bárbaro Jonathan López Linares, Cuba, designed by him and emblazoned by me. My emblazonment was used to personalize this mug. The criterion is that the tinctures must remain consistent within the same interpretation of the arms. If I paint a version of this shield, I will use a single azure for the field and for the mantling, should I depict it; the same or for the three monstrances; and the same argent for the wolf and for the sacred hosts. But in a different interpretation, another azure may be used, provided that it is azure, as well as another or and another argent. The azure used by one artist does not bind the next; that is why we use terms such as azure, which means any blue except sky blue. If we were forced to use exactly the same azure in every interpretation of the same arms, we would have to blazon them, for example, with Pantone codes or RGB specifications, and that is not what we do. Tinctures are fixed in logos, but not in coats of arms; this is one of the reasons why coats of arms leave much more room for artistic expression than corporate logos.

There are discrepancies regarding the year of her death, with sources suggesting either 1279 or 1288. She bore her father's arms with a bordure compony featuring the arms of Castile and those of her mother, from Swabia. [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1982; page 104 and illustration between pages 112 and 113] writes «We know of a seal of this infanta that displays in the field the royal quarterly, surrounded like a bordure by 4 castles and 4 eagles, alternating», and in the illustration he depicts the bordure with 8 castles and 8 eagles, which is the version I have interpreted. I am particularly fond of compony arms, and this one is, to me, among the most beautiful and quintessentially Castilian.

Canting arms of Jan Bobor, Slovakia, emblazoned under his directions. With the wording «bearing on its dexter shoulder a sword Argent», one could imagine a version where the figure has the sword simply resting on the shoulder, without grasping the hilt. It is a possibility that could be avoided if the blazon were refined to read: «bearing in its dexter paw, and resting on its dexter shoulder, a sword Argent, hilted Or». That way it would be clearer that the sword is both held and supported, although at the cost of a longer and more complex blazon.

Nine of my interpretations of the coat of arms of His Majesty King Felipe VI of Spain, together with three constructive diagrams illustrating my execution of this coat of arms, were documented, edited, and printed in book form. Two unique copies were hand-bound in leather, with the cover engraved with this coat of arms. One of them was delivered to the Household of His Majesty, and I received a letter conveying His Majesty the King’s gratitude for my heraldic interpretation of his coat of arms based on the golden ratio.

Azure, a bendlet Argent between six fleurs de lis Or.
Illuminated with lights and shadows and with a metallic and iridescent finish.
Coat of arms of Stephen Tvrtko I (circa 1338-1391) of the House of Kotromanic and 1st King of Bosnia and it was also the coat of arms of Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1998.
The bendlet is a diminutive of the bend. It is a diminished bend, narrower, and typically reduced to 1/2 (as in this case) or to 1/3 of the width of a normal bend. This piece is called «cotiza» in Castilian, «cotice» in French, and «cotissa» in Italian. Remember that the width of the bend is usually 1/3 of the width of the coat of arms, therefore the width of the bendlet is between 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/6 and 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9 of the width of the coat of arm.
Stephen Tvrtko I of Bosnia, from the House of Kotromanic, was a vassal of Louis I of Hungary. Louis I or Louis of Anjou, known as «the Great», from the Royal House of Anjou-Sicily, of the Capetian Dynasty, hence his coat of arms's 2nd quarter is seeded with fleur de lis, a feature also present in his father Charles I's arms, known as Charles Robert or Caroberto of Anjou. The Kotromanic family had in their coat of arms fleur de lis Or on a Azure field as a symbol of subordination to the Hungarian royal family.

Juan del Bosque, «Libro de Armería del Reino de Navarra», which is currently missing and whose subsequent copy, commissioned in 1572, is kept in the Royal and General Archive of Navarre, estimated year of creation 1540.
The origin of this armorial dates back to 1527, when the Navarrese Courts requested that the Royal Council and the Chamber of Comptos ~ Chamber of Accounts and Fiscal Control, record in a book the coats of arms of the kingdom of Navarre starting with that of the king of Navarre and the houses and lineages of the so-called «ricoshombres», Almorrabides, Guebara, Aybar, Baztanes, Urroz, Lete, Subiça, Rada, Vidaurre, Qasqante, Monteagudo, and Mauleón, also including the coats of arms of other manors, houses, valleys, towns, and nobles [Valverde Ogallar, P. B.; 2001; page 326].
According to [Martinena Ruiz, J. J.; 1982; page 35] the book was compiled around the year 1540, and this is the date I use for referencing this armorial.
This first manuscript created by Juan del Bosque was taken by the royal visitor Hernán Suárez de Toledo, under the pretext of taking it to Emperor Charles V, despite being requested back by the Navarrese Courts, it was never returned and was definitively lost. The armorial that has come down to us is a recreation commissioned in 1572 [Valverde Ogallar, P. B.; 2001; page 327].
According to [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1974; page 19] the recreation of this armorial was carried out based on certifications, such as those from the herald Azcárraga, and notes and partial copies of the stolen book, like the copy kept in the monastery of Leyre.
Another noteworthy bibliographic reference about this armorial, in addition to those previously mentioned, is [Martinena Ruiz, J. J.; Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 2001].
The image illustrating this bibliographic reference is the coat of arms of the king of Navarre, which I recreated based on the illustration in this armorial, on its first folio according to the numbering given to it in 1613.
Bibliographical reference of century XVI.

Around 1155, Beatrix de Villers married Richard le Boteler Pincerna, who became the 4th Baron of Warrington. The heir of Beatrix and Richard took the surname «le Boteler» and ruled the Warrington region, bearing arms Azure, a bend between six covered cups Or.
In Castilian, a «copa» has a lid and is referred to as a «covered cup» in English. When it doesn't have a lid, it's called a «cup» in English and a «cáliz» or «copón» in Castilian, the latter being a less preferred term for me. In English, the term «chalice» is also used, especially if it's adorned with gemstones, although that's more of an artistic license.
Naipes Heraclio Fournier is a renowned Spanish playing card manufacturer based in Villareal de Álava. The countless hours I have spent holding its cards in my hands are incalculable, whether playing with friends, opponents, or performing magic tricks.

Arms of Charles, Holy Roman Emperor, emblazoned by me. In English heraldry, the term supporters is used in a general sense, whether the supporters are animals, inanimate objects, plants or human figures. There is no strict terminological distinction based on the nature of the supporting figures. In Castilian heraldic tradition, by contrast, a more precise terminology is employed. The term «soportes» is used when the supporters are animals, «sostenes» when they are objects (such as columns or weapons) or plants (such trees), and «tenantes» when the figures supporting the coat of arms are human in form. In addition, inanimate supporters are relatively common in Castilian heraldry, whereas they are much rarer in English heraldry. There is also a difference in blazoning practice in the case of columns. In English, the shaft of the column is treated as the primary element, and the tinctures of the base and capital are then specified. In Spanish, the approach is the reverse: the column is described as a whole, stating its main tincture first, and then specifying that it is shafted in another metal. For example in this case: «Supporters: two columns Argent, capital and base Or» ~ «Sostenes: dos columnas de oro, fustadas de plata».

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 an ordinary, I distinguish between engrailed and invected from the ordinary's point of view; for instance, I define a bordure as invected if, from the interior of the bordure, the edge appears invected (meaning the arcs appear concave); conversely, I say a bordure is engrailed if the arcs appear convex from its interior point of view; in this specific case, regarding a line of division, I describe it as engrailed because, from the perspective of the base of the coat of arms, the arcs of the partition line appear convex [Nisbet, A.; 1816; page 21, pictures 1 and 2].

The fox refers to the clever and resourceful character attributed to the armiger’s family. The federschwert evokes his dedication to Historical European Martial Arts, in particular the German school of Liechtenauer and the long sword. The oak leaves have a double meaning: they symbolize nature and spirituality, linked to his belonging to the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids, and being nine in number they allude to his Irish heritage and the legendary figure of Niall of the Nine Hostages. His ancestry includes Irish, English and German roots, the latter once again connected to the sword. The motto translates as «Clever, Caring, Witty».

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.

This is his coat of arms Vitéz László Gábor emblazoned by me. Per fess is the horizontal division into two parts, and per pale is the vertical division into two; therefore, per fess and per pale in base means that the shield is first divided horizontally, with the upper part as the first quarter, and the lower part is then divided vertically into two, forming the second and third quarters. The heraldic crescent is a moon with its horns pointing upward (to chief); to distinguish it from the natural crescent moon, in Spanish heraldry it is called «creciente tornado», while in English the equivalent term is increscent. The Castilian «filiera» is a narrow bordure, thinner than the ordinary one; in English it has no specific name and is usually referred to simply as a bordure, or rarely as a diminished bordure or fillet bordure. In the crest, fimbriated and barred Or indicates that the border details and grill-bars of the helm are gold, while lined refers to its interior, here Gules.

Arms emblazoned by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a corset external shape and with a watercolor finishing.
Coat of arms of Amber Martinez, California, designed by her, improved by Kevin D Couling and Bob Juchter van Bergen Quast and emblazoned by me. The motto «Miseris succurrere disco» originates from Virgil's «Aeneid», [Virgil, P.; Century I B.C.; book I, verse 630], numbered as verses 630-631 in some editions. The complete sentence is «Non ignara mali, miseris succurrere disco», commonly translated as «Not being unacquainted with suffering, I learn to help those who suffer» or «Knowing suffering myself, I have learned to come to the aid of the unfortunate». These words are spoken by Queen Dido of Carthage as she welcomes Aeneas and his shipwrecked Trojans. Offering them refuge and protection, Dido explains that she herself has experienced exile and hardship after fleeing Tyre following the murder of her husband. Her own experience of suffering has taught her compassion and empathy for those enduring misfortune, making this passage one of the most enduring literary expressions of charity, hospitality, and solidarity with people in distress.

Coat of arms of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II emblazoned by me. Saint Edward Crown, the fundamental piece used in the anointing ceremony of British monarchs, was reconstructed in 1661 after the Restoration. This crown is distinguished by its four depressed or downward-curving arches, three visible, which rise from a circular base decorated with four cross patty, three visible, alternating with four fleurs de lis, two visible. Like the Tudor, its arches, adorned with pearls, converge at the center to support an orb, a cross on a world. The crown's base is lined with ermine, and the cap or inner lining is traditionally represented in Purpure. It is the heaviest piece among the Crown Jewels and its use is reserved exclusively for the culminating moment of the coronation. The main visual difference between Saint Edward Crown and the Tudor Crown lies in their arches: Saint Edward Crown features depressed arches or downward curves, and its inner cap is typically represented in Purpure. Conversely, the Tudor Crown features ascending or semi-circular arches, and its inner cap is colored Gules.

Coat of arms of Rosalía Cruz Carballo designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and refined and emblazoned by me. In heraldry, a gazelle springing represents a broader and more dynamic leap than a gazelle salient, since in the springing attitude none of the hooves touch the ground, whereas in the salient attitude the hind legs, usually held close together, remain grounded while propelling the body upward. The English heraldic term «springing» is commonly used to describe a quadruped depicted in mid-leap, with all four legs clear of the ground, since there is no fully established Castilian translation for this heraldic attitude, I translate it as «brincante». The broad and energetic leap of the gazelle reflects Rosalía’s sporting spirit, vitality, and fondness for running and overcoming obstacles. The gazelle bears around its neck the cross designed by Jon Lanzagorta for his co-father-in-law, Mr. Cruz, her father. For this reason the cross is referred to in the blazon as the cross of the Cruz family and is not specifically blazoned in this case, although it could be described as a cross patty whose arms are each formed by three compony pallets Argent, Purpure and Or.

The heraldic art often involves resolving design challenges while maintaining both aesthetic balance and adherence to tradition. The coat of arms illustrated here draws inspiration from the Dethick-Dethicke family arms of Derbyshire, though it features distinct differences. This design explores the placement of water-bougets, a medieval water vessel, in a 2+2 arrangement, with a fess vair.
One key consideration when arranging charges in heraldry is proportionality. In this case, the fess occupies 1/3 of the coat of arms's width and is positioned 1/3 of the height from the chief, rather than at the exact center, allowing the charges to balance harmoniously. The shape of the shield itself also plays a role: rounded shields can accommodate a 2+2 arrangement more comfortably than shields with a pointed base, which are better suited to 2+1 arrangements, this is de case of Dethick's arms.
Another challenge in heraldic design is asymmetry. To address the natural curves of the shield, the water-bougets may vary slightly in size or placement. This intentional asymmetry can help create a visually appealing composition that respects both tradition and the unique constraints of each design, because, heraldry is not only about rules but also about creativity.
Gules, a fess vair between four water-bougets Or, two in chief and two in base.
Escudo de gules, una faja de veros acompañada de cuatro pares de odres de oro, dos en jefe y dos en punta.
In German, they are called «Wasserschlauch» in English «water-bougets» or «oges», and in French «bouses» or «chantepleures».
There is no specific heraldic term for them in Castilian. Based on «chantepleures», one could use «cantimploras», which are metallic or at least rigid. On the other hand, «oges» could translate as «odres», as they are typically made of leather as in this case. Additionally, since «water-bouget» are designed as a pair to be carried by a donkey or other animal, I have decided to use «par de odres» to convey the idea of one on each side of the animal.
In English, when there is a single charge, that is, a pair of water vessels, it is written in singular as «water-bouget», as can be seen in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figure 551]. [Friar, S.; 1987; page 68] defines «bouget» as «...a stylized representation of a yoke supporting two leather waterbags».

My rule is: a coat of arms is forever, so any symbol included must be recognizable by future generations. Can you place an iPhone in a coat of arms? No—but not because it’s modern, rather because your grandchildren likely won’t recognize the form of an iPhone; in fact, today’s mobile phones already look quite different from those of a decade ago. Can you include a steam locomotive? Yes, because its form has become anchored in time and in the collective imagination. What about an hourglass, an analog clock, or a black 8-ball from pool? Also yes—their forms are now classics. That is, I believe we can use those symbols that most people already carry in their minds and that are very likely to remain present in the minds of our children and grandchildren. But this is just my humble criterion.

I use the term "legend" for its identifying purpose regarding King Fernando II of León; note that among the terms motto, legend, device, and war cry, all referring to texts in the blazon, different nuances and meanings can be found.
Blazon keywords: Without divisions, One, Lion, Sejant and Motto (identification).

Classification: Interpreted, Personal, Seal and Kingdom of León.

Escudo cuartelado: 1o y 4o de gules, un castillo de oro, aclarado de azur, mazonado de sable; 2o y 3o de plata, un león rampante de púrpura, armado y lampasado de gules.
Arms of King Ferdinand III of Castile, as interpreted by me, with the following characteristics: the shield’s shape is rounded; the field, the two castles, and the two lions have been illuminated; and the whole composition features a watercolor finish.
It is with King Ferdinand III the Saint of Castile when «the emblematic system reaches its highest degree of perfection, acquiring two characteristics: realism, which becomes a hallmark of Spanish heraldry,... and the tendency to combine coats of arms» with the appearance of quarterly divisions replacing the cadency marks used in the rest of Europe [Valverde Ogallar, P. B.; 2001; page 100].

Registered by The International Register of Arms, 1st 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.
In the words of [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 173] «there is no rule that determines the use of tenantes, soportes, and sostenes».

R0047, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant for the arms of Olivia Zangenberg's arms, United Kindom, whose full achievement has been emblazoned by me for such register. In the practice of the Office of the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta, whose grants and registrations are officially published in the Government Gazette, a double coronation is occasionally observed within the armorial achievements. In this case, the coronet resting directly upon the shield represents the personal rank of the armiger (in this case, a coronet of noble as the daughter of a baron), while the superior coronet identifies the dignity of the family to which she or he belongs. The Office's policy is detailed in the book [Gauci, C. A.; 2023; 145], «The Way Forward»: «In the British tradition, coronets of rank are normally borne immediately above the shield, but in other countries e.g., Spain, Portugal, France the coronet of rank may be borne above the helm, not unlike a crest coronet. In Malta some title-holders display their coronet above the shield while others display it above the helm. In some cases, this may be due to the fact that some holders of Maltese titles of foreign origins, opt to follow the heraldic rules of the country which granted the original title. In other case it appears to rest purely on the whims of the title-holder. The Office of the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta will normally choose to display coronets of rank immediately above the shield but will not stand in the way of family tradition should there be a preference for the coronet to be displayed elsewhere in the Arms. However, a titular coronet, unlike a crest coronet (see below), must never be placed above a wreath or be separated from the helm by a fold of mantling. This would reduce its status to that of a crest coronet».

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».

The genealogical chart with the coats of arms of the House of Potts of Wentworth, all designed by Randy David Lee Xavier Potts and emblazoned by me and signed by me, exhibited at the 5th International Congress of Genealogy and Heraldry (5th ICGHV), Vilnius. The 5th ICGHV was held at the historic National Museum - Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania and was organized by the Genealogijos, Heraldikos ir Veksilologijos Institutas. This armorial genealogical chart is intended to be read from the House of Potts of Wentworth at its centre, with each family branch radiating outwards. Rather than following the conventional vertical layout of a pedigree, it presents the family's heraldic relationships in a more compact form. As Randy Potts himself expressed after seeing the finished work, it represents not only genealogy and heraldry, but also the identity, history, and shared legacy of the entire family. The House of Potts of Wentworth are Randy David Lee Xavier Potts, Kimberley Ann Potts, Britania Anastoshia Korÿn McCoy, Köryn Alexandria Konstånz Potts, Konstånz Chantal Leóné Potts, Tiana Rose Lee Potts, Makayla Danée Robidoux, Corey Scott Lasco, Sebastian Artemis Cole McCoy, Evander Graham Wylder McCoy, Bradlee Tatym LaRue Botkin, Rhettlee Cooper Jones, Easton Michael Jones, Hudson Hayes Lasco, and Ryker Scott Lasco.

G0053, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant of Giovanni de Bella's arms, whose coat of arms has been emblazoned by me. 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.

The coat of arms of Gomel~Homyel, Belarus, emblazoned by me. This is preparatory artwork for the crest of the coat of arms of the family of Lucas Cruz.
When Gomel was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, its coat of arms did not feature a lynx. After the city became part of the Russian Empire in 1772, Empress Catherine II granted Gomel in 1775 to Field Marshal Pyotr Rumyantsev-Zadunaisky, who transferred the administrative centre to the nearby town of Novaya Belitsa. That town was granted a new coat of arms on 16 August 1781, already featuring a lynx, with the decree explaining its inclusion "because there are many of these animals in the vicinity of this town." In 1852, Prince Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich restored Gomel as the district's administrative centre, bringing with it the arms of Novaya Belitsa, which were officially adopted as the coat of arms of Gomel on 23 December 1855.

Henry II Plantagenet, King of England, Duke of Normandy, Duke of Aquitaine, Count of Anjou, Count of Maine, and Count of Nantes.
Gules, a lion rampant Or.
Escudo de gules, un león rampante de oro.
Existing arms interpreted by me as follows: the shield's shape is pointed; the field has been enamelled in flat Gules; the lion in Or has been outlined in Sable; and the whole composition has a rough texture finish.
It is believed that Henry I was the first King of England to have a coat of arms, featuring a single lion rampant, but no documentary evidence has yet been found [Rabbow, A.; 1999; paragraph 8].
[Ailes, A.; 1982; page 62] argues that Henry II may have used three different versions of his arms featuring a) a single lion rampant, b) two leopards, and c) three leopards. However, it remains unclear whether these versions were used sequentially over time or concurrently. For this interpretation, I have chosen the version with the lion rampant.

Coat of arms of the Infante Henry of Castile, 1230–1303, 6th offspring of the King Ferdinand III of Castile, 1199-1252, and the Queen Beatrice of Swabia, 1205–1235. He bore his father's arms, replacing the lion Purpure of the Kingdom of León with a cross flory Purpure, likely due to his close association with the Order of Calatrava, whose emblem is a cross flory Gules. However, he retained the metal Argent field in the 2nd and 3rd quarters and the lion's purpure color, suggesting this was more of a conceptual change than a quartering by alliance with the Order of Calatrava.

Argent, a heron volant Azure, beaked and membered between three escallops Sable.

Arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a pointed external shape and with a rough finishing.
Canting arms of the family of Paul and Kari Herndon, based on the arms of their lineage, and emblazoned by me. In heraldic blazoning, a tincture normally applies to all subsequent elements until another tincture is specified. This may be regarded as a kind of «backward propagation rule», whereby the final mention of a tincture is understood to qualify all the immediately preceding elements to which it can logically apply. This convention avoids unnecessary repetition, producing shorter, more concise blazons without any loss of precision. For example, the blazon «Argent, a heron volant Azure, beaked and membered Sable between three escallops Sable» already means that both the beak and the legs of the heron are Sable. Repeating the tincture «beaked Sable and membered Sable» is therefore unnecessary. In Castilian, however, I often add clarifying quantifiers such as «both» ~ «ambos de» when 2 elements share the same tincture, and «all» ~ «todo de» when there are more than 2 elements, as this generally improves readability without altering the meaning. In this case there are many elements: its beak, 2 legs, and 3 escallops.

The Hradec Králové Region is an administrative unit of the Czech Republic. It is located in the historical region of Bohemia. Its capital is Hradec Králové, whose Latin name is «Gradicium», hence its old name «Gradec». The letter «G» seen in both the coat of arms of the Hradec Králové Region and the coat of arms of its capital originates from this historical name. The lion rampant Anrgent, double queued and crowned in the 1st and 4th quarters is the symbol of Bohemia, and it also appears in the 1st and 4th quarters of the coat of arms of the Czech Republic. «Králové» means «of the queen» in Czech and there is a trefoiled crown in the 3rd quarter

Azure, a terraze in base Or, overall a gazelle statant Argent accompanied in honour point by the cross of the Cruz family.
De azur terrazado de oro, brochante sobre el todo una gacela parada de plata acompañada en el punto de honor por la cruz de la familia Cruz.
Coat of arms of Juan Pablo Íñiguez Cruz designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and refined and emblazoned by me. Whereas the gazelles in the arms of his mother Rosalía Cruz Carballo and sister Julia Íñiguez Cruz were depicted as female, in this case the intention was to represent a male gazelle. For this reason longer horns have been painted and the male sex has been explicitly depicted. In heraldry, the representation of the male sex is common and almost generalized in certain heraldic beasts, especially in animals of strong or combative character such as lions, wolves, or bulls. In more stylized and elegant animals, such as stags or gazelles, such representation is more variable and depends largely on artistic, symbolic, and compositional criteria. In this particular case, I chose to depict it. The gazelle is accompanied by the cross that Jon Lanzagorta designed for his co-father-in-law, Mr. Cruz, the grandfather of Juan Pablo. For this reason the cross is referred to in the blazon as the cross of the Cruz family and is not specifically blazoned in this case, although it could be described as a cross patty whose arms are each formed by three compony pallets Argent, Purpure and Or. Note that the cross is itself a canting symbol, since it is the «cross» ~ «cruz» of the Cruz family. The honour point is a position within the coat of arms located on its central vertical axis, above the center of the shield and below the middle of the chief.

Argent, a lion passant Gules, grasping a Celtic cross Sable in its dexter forepaw, on a chief Vert, a mural crown with five visible oak leaves Argent. Motto: «Protect with Honour and Integrity» Sable, with initial letters Gules, over a scroll Argent.
Escudo de plata, un león pasante de gules, teniendo en su diestra una cruz celta se sable, en un jefe de sinople, una corona mural con cinco hojas de roble visibles de plata. Lema: «Protect with Honour and Integrity» de sable, con letras iniciales de gules, sobre una filacteria de plata.
Coat of arms devised by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a pointed external shape and with a leather finishing.
This coat of arms is a distillation of personal heritage and regional identity. The lion passant and the tinctures Gules and Argent are inspired by the Nolan arms; he is married to Dymphna, née Nolan. The oak leaves on the mural crown are derived from the Durkan arms. The Gules represents the ancient bloodline of the Durkan family in this part of Connacht. The colours Gules and Vert reflect the colours of County Mayo, where he was born. Argent, present in both the Durkan and Nolan arms, also evokes the swans on the lakes near the family homestead in County Mayo. The Celtic cross refers to Mayo Abbey, a nearby 7th-century monastic site traditionally linked to St. Colmán, close to Rathnacreeva. The circular stone structure of the mural crown represents Rathnacreeva, a ringfort, he was born in County Mayo to Bob Durkan and Bernie Flynn of Rathnacreeva. They are 5 brothers, the mural crown bears 5 oak leaves joined at their base through the stones of the crown, symbolising the 5 brothers and their connection. The mural crown symbolises civic authority and recalls both Dublin Castle, the former headquarters of An Garda Síochána, where the armiger served as a Garda, and also the dry-stone walls of the west of Ireland. The motto «Protect with Honour and Integrity» encapsulates the ideas of governance, duty, and moral authority.

The heraldic badge of Kimberly Louise Severson designed by her and emblazoned by me. I have painted 3 heraldic badges for Kimberly Louise Severson: the first featuring 2 Easter lilies and Aslan's paw print, the second featuring a cross bottony, and the third, rather than a heraldic badge, depicting her earliest personal emblem with a harp and other elements. This is the first badge I painted for her. The photograph shows two stages in the development of an Easter lily used as a supporter of the badge of Kimberly Louise Severson. The translucent tracing paper shows two successive hand-drawn versions of the flower, illustrating the progression of the artwork. Above them appears the finished digital rendering of the badge in its final painted form, accompanied by its two Easter lilies proper. The image documents the transition from the hand-drawn sketches to the completed artwork.

This is the coat of arms of Her Royal Highness Doña Leonor Princess of Asturias, Princess of Girona, and Princess of Viana, heiress of the throne of Spain as the elder daughter of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia. This version of her coat of arms has been emblazoned by me. The coat of arms of the Princess of Asturias is the same as her father's, the King, but with a mark of cadency which, in heraldic terms, is also know as brisure. In this case, the cadency mark is a label Azure with three points, which will be removed in due course. The label of three points is the main and most classic of the brisures, usually assigned to the eldest heir. It is said to originate from a piece of cloth the son would tie at the top of his shield to distinguish it from his father's. Other common brisures include the crescent, the mullet of five point, the marlet, the annulet, or the fleur de lis. In addition to these simple brisures, there are also combined brisures, which are brisures charged with another or others. For example, a crescent charged with a fleur de lis. Labels may also have their points charged with other marks. Many cadency systems become more complicated as generations progress and branches open up, so they tend to be rarely used except in very clear cases like this one.

Coat of arms of the lineage Mark of Germany. Symmetrical geometry of a fess chequey of 3 traits: a) The height of the fess is 1/3 of the width of the coat of arms. b) The fess is chequey with 3 traits. c) Therefore, the height of each trait is calculated as 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. d) In a square, the height is equal to the width. e) Consequently, the width of each square in the chequey is also 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. f) The first trait must contain 9 squares, as the width of the fess allows for an exact division into 9 equal squares, 9 being an odd number. g) If the first square is Gules, the last square of the same row will also be Gules, ensuring symmetry in the design.

Guilaberto Lloscós y Soldevilla was grand prior of the Order of Saint John from 1449 to 1460.
Argent, a bull salient Gules within a bordure gyronny Argent and Sable.
Escudo de plata, un toro saltande de gules; bordura jironada de plata y sable.
Illuminated and parchment finishing.
He also known as Guilaberto Loscós y Soldevilla, and his coat of arms can be consulted at [García Carraffa, A.; García Carraffa, A.; 1968; volume II, page 407], who does not depict this bull with its tongue out.
The Lloscós lineage resided on the island of Mallorca and succeeded in the position of royal procurator of the island. Lázaro Lloscós was the procurator of the island in 1332, his son Mateo Lloscós was in 1392 and his grandson Mateo Lloscós was too. Mateo Lloscós helped King Alonso V of Aragon, the Magnanimous, with the expenses of the Naples campaign in 1435 and, therefore, the king donated the town of Bañalbufar and the title of baron. Mateo Lloscós was the father of Guilaberto Lloscós y Soldevilla grand prior of the Order of Saint John.
This bordure presents a dual characteristic. It could be considered a bordure compony because it is composed of a series of segments, in this case, eight. However, since the sides of these segments are not perpendicular to the bordure, but are angled in such a way that all their extended lines would converge at the exact center of the coat of arms, it structurally resembles the division known as gyronny. It is for this reason that, despite its compony appearance, I specifically designate it as a bordure gyronny.
This is a reflection on the tongue out in animals in heraldry. I will rely on the representations found in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909], as it contains numerous representations of animals in the most diverse heraldic attitudes.
In heraldry, tigers [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 322-325], lions, wolves, the bear, etc., are usually represented with the tongue out; they are heraldic beasts and they are carnivores.
However, the fox in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 343-345] is not painted with the tongue out. It is classified as a heraldic beast and, moreover, it is carnivorous.
The boar is omnivorous, it is a heraldic beast and it is painted with the tongue out, as is done in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 353-358].
From the above, there is no uniform association between the tongue out and being a heraldic beast or a carnivore.
On the other hand, [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 446-449] classifies eagles as birds, not as beasts; they are carnivorous and are represented with the tongue out. And the dolphin is a fish, it is carnivorous and is also represented with the tongue out [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 479-480].
There are heraldists who say that herbivores are not painted with the tongue out.
But donkeys, mules, and especially the horse are herbivores and they can be seen represented with the tongue out. For example, [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 360 and 362] paints the horse with the tongue out, and in figure 361, with the horse running, he does not paint the tongue out. In no case does he classify it as a heraldic beast.
[Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 368 and 370] paints the talbot, the mythical dog of heraldry, with the tongue out rampant and passant; but in more restful attitudes, such as standing and seated, he does not paint it with the tongue out. This could indicate that, when it is calm, it does not put the tongue out. But in the previous paragraph we have seen that he does not paint the horse running with the tongue out, and a horse running is not calm.
The bull [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 375-376] is not painted with the tongue out. However, I paint the bull with the tongue out and, although herbivorous, I claim the fighting bull as one of the most beastly figures of heraldry.
The stag does not carry the tongue out in any of its attitudes in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 379-386], and other cervids [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 387-390] do not either.
Rams, sheep, lambs, goats [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 395-403] also do not carry the tongue out.
The badger is carnivorous [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figure 409]; as with the fox, it is carnivorous and does not carry the tongue out.
Therefore, in general, the tongue out cannot be fully associated either with heraldic beasts or with carnivores, just as not carrying the tongue out cannot be associated with herbivores or with calm attitudes. For example, the lion always carries the tongue out, even in its calmest attitudes [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 304-309].
The conclusion is that it is left to the discretion of the heraldic artist to paint or not to paint the tongue out, depending on what he wishes to express. For example, greater aggressiveness, greater movement, or liveliness could be associated with the tongue out.

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.

Escudo de gules, un carbunclo cerrado, pomelado de oro; cargado en el centro de una esmeralda en forma de losange de sinople.
Original coat of arms of Navarre interpreted with: a semicircular (round) base; the field in flat Gules; the pommetty carbuncle illuminated in Or and outlined in Sable; the emerald illuminated in Vert and also outlined in Sable; and the whole finished with a raised-stroke effect.
In the armorial [Urfé; Siglo XV; indexed on folio 151, but actually written on 142] the arms of Navarre are blazoned in French as «de gueles à l'escarboucle d'or pommelée alumée de sinoble en la moyenne en guise d'esmeraude», it only gives the blazon, since this armorial is not illustrated.
An image of the original French blazon text can be seen in the article Blazon of Navarre in the Urfé armorial.
The interpretation of the arms of Navarre shown here is based on the one illustrated in the armorial [Bosque, J. del; 1540; folio 1 of the 1613 numbering], which is its main plate, with the arms of the king of Navarre surrounded by the coats of arms of the lineages and manors of his «ricoshombres», twelve lineages in total.
In [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1963] one can consult his view on what is, probably, the real origin of the arms of Navarre, which he bases on:
Regarding the importance of the radiated boss and the carbuncle, not only in the arms of Navarre but in heraldry in general, [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1963] goes a step further when he writes «although it has never been pointed out, it seems evident to us the influence of this piece on the classic partitions of the shield, contained in the four diametral lines that compose it». He makes us see that «cortado, partido, tronchado y tajado» and, therefore also, «cuartelado, en sotuer y jironado», do not have their origin in the different ways of striking a shield with a sword, as illustrated, for example, in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; plate 18, illustrations 23, 24, 25 and 25], but in different ways of selecting, as delimiters, the four diameters of the carbuncle.

Coat of arms of the House of Noronha in Portugal, a lineage of dual royal origin. The House of Noronha originated with Alfonso Enríquez of Castile, Count of Noreña and Gijón, the natural son of King Henry II of Castile, founder of the Trastámara dynasty, and of Elvira Íñiguez. The lineage became linked to the Portuguese Royal House through the marriage of Alfonso Enríquez to Isabel of Portugal, the natural daughter of King Ferdinand I of Portugal, an alliance arranged in the context of the Treaty of Santarém of 1373, which brought an end to the Fernandine Wars, during which Ferdinand I of Portugal confronted the kings of the House of Trastámara over the throne of Castile following the murder of Peter I at the hands of his half-brother Henry. The House of Noronha became established in Portugal, and its arms quarter those of the Kingdom of Portugal, differenced by a brisure consisting of a baston Sable, and those of the House of Trastámara. This coat of arms has been emblazoned for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim by me as a preparatory work for his armorial bearings, his coat of arms has a inescutcheon with the arms of the House of Noronha.

Argent, a multi-rose, which is a rose charged with ten roses conjoined in orle Rose, barbed Vert, seeded Or; a bordure Azure.
Coat of arms of the eldest granddaughter of Jon. It has been designed by her and Juan Lanzagorta Vallín, and emblazoned by me using a lozenge shape. The image illustrates my process in 3 steps: 1) outlined, 2) plain colors and metals, and 3) light and shadows. This multi-rose is sometimes affectionately called «rosagorta» by the granddaughter, from «rosa» and Lanzagorta; «gorta» in Basque means «corral» or «enclosure», so Lanzagorta would mean «the corral of Lanza», and therefore «rosagorta» would be «the corral of the rose».

Coat of arms designed by me, in plain tinctures, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a texturized finish.
Canting arms of Dolores Peregrina Corona designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and me and emblazoned by me. 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.
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.

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, five escutcheons in cross Azure, each charged with five plates in saltire; a bordure Gules, charged with seven castles triple-towered Or, 3, 2, and 2 [for Portugal]; the whole debruised by a baston Sable.
Coat of arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a freehand finishing.
Coat of arms of the Kingdom of Portugal differenced by a baston Sable, as it appears in the arms of the House of Noronha. In the Arquivo Heráldico Genealógico of the Viscount Sanches de Baena this brisure is blazoned as «é por diferença um filete de negro sobreposto em banda», while in the Armaría Portuguesa it is described as «um filete negro em contrabanda». This latter term may be confusing, as «contrabanda» corresponds to the bend sinister, that is, the opposite diagonal. For the purpose of blazoning this coat of arms I use the heraldic term «baston» in English ~ «bastón» in Spanish ~ «bande batonnée» in French ~ «bastone» in Italian, denoting a bend reduced to 1/4 of its normal width. It should be recalled that the diminished bend properly speaking is the «bendlet», whose width ranges between 1/2 and 1/3 of that of the bend; the baston, being thinner, is therefore more suitable and proportionate for this shield. This coat of arms has been emblazoned for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim by me as a preparatory work for his armorial bearings. In that coat of arms, the inescutcheon of the House of Noronha bears this differenced Portugal arms in the 1st and 4th quarters.

Blazon of the Poumola lineage of Catalonia.
Gules, a millstone Argent.
Escudo de gules, una piedra de molino de plata.
Illuminated and a watercolor finishing with shadow in the hole.
It blazon is describe in [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1987; page 1429], [García Carraffa, A.; García Carraffa, A.; 1968; volume 3, page 358], and [Ferrer i Vives, F.; 1995; volume 2, page 362].
In this case, my theory is that this coat of arms is an example of «canting arms». «Canting arms» use a word or words of the surname or inside the surname to make the coat of arms. The surname Poumola is from Catalonia, we can split the surname into 2 parts «pou-mola», in Catalonian language a) «pou» means «well» and b) «mola» means «millstone» ~ «cadascuna de les dues pedres de forma circular que componen el molí», [GDLC; 1998], and this could be the reason of the symbolism of this coat of arms. «Canting» in heraldry means «talking» or «chatting», in Spanish «canting arms» is translated as «armas parlantes». Some heralds call «canting» to this creative technic.

Quarterly: 1 Gules, a castle triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable [for Castile]; 2 Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules, crowned Or [for Leon]; 3 Or, four pallets Gules [for Aragon]; 4 Gules, a chain orlewise, crosswise, and saltirewise Or, charged in the fess point with an emerald Vert [for Navarre]; enté en point Argent, a pomegranate proper, seeded Gules, slipped and leaved Vert [for Granada]; an inescutcheon Azure, three fleurs de lis Or, 2 and 1, a bordure Gules [for Bourbon].
The figure illustrates my construction scheme outlined with my main proportions for the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Spain. The scheme is conceptually divided into three horizontal rectangles of equal height: the first one dedicated to the Royal Crown, the second to the quarters of Castile and and Leon, and the third rectangle to the quarters of Aragon and Navarre. The width of the central inescutcheon is defined as 1/3 of the total shield width. The curve of the enté en point of Granada is designed such that the resulting shapes in the quarter for Aragon and the quarter for Navarre are symmetrical, evoking the form of a pointed shield.

The coat of arms of Ignasi Pujol was designed by him based on the ancient arms of the Pujol lineage and refined and emblazoned by me. In the English blazon, I used the term «pallet», which is the diminished pale, and in the Castilian blazon, I used the term «palo». However, in Castilian, the term «vara», which is a diminished pale, could have been used, writing «cuatro varas de gules» in the same style as it was written in English «four pallet Gules».

Argent, a crucible Argent, enflamed and on a bonfire hoguera Gules and Or. Crest: A closed royal crown Or, with eight arches, visible five. Motto: «Limpia, fixa, y da esplendor» Or over a scroll Azure.
Escudo de plata, un crisol de plata, llameante y sumado a una hoguera de gules y oro. Timbrado de una corona real cerrada. Lema: «Limpia, fixa, y da esplendor» de oro sobre una filacteria de azur.
Interpretation made from the Royal Academy emblem: transforming it into a semicircular-based shield, instead of its oval shape; with its motto on a scroll beneath the base, instead of surrounding it; keeping the closed royal crown in its place; with everything illuminated except the field which is in plain color; and the whole outlined in sable and with a parchment-like finish.
In this interpretation, on the Argent field, the Gules fire of the bonfire completely surrounds the Argent crucible, to avoid the metal Argent on the same.
To write the blazon for this coat of arms I use the heraldic term «llameante». Therefore, I do not follow [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 82 and figure 163] when he writes «...y un Fénix de gules sobre una hoguera encendida de lo mismo.». He uses this example to illustrate the 2 fundamental uses of the term «encendido» which is said when «the Eyes of animals... are of a different color» and «also of a burning Bush and the same for a Torch, when the flame is of a different tincture».

Sable, three Towers Or, two and one
The classic heraldic layout for three charges on a coat of arms is two in chief and on in base. The layout one in chief and two at base are considered disordered in many heraldic traditions.
The blazon of this coat of arms, «Sable, three Towers Or, two and one», is disordered, and the entropy refers to disorder, and more entropy means more disorder. Then this imaginary coat of arms is full of entropy, and it could belong to the entropy.

Gules, a cross of Burgundy Or; an inescutcheon Or, three bars Gules.
Coat of arms of the Tercio Great Captain, 1st of the Spanish Legion, emblazoned by me in 12 steps. The inescutcheon represents the coat of arms of Gonzalo Fernandez de Cordoba, 1453-1515, «The Great Captain». To paint the coat of arms of the Tercio Gran Capitán, I applied a geometric method that involves dividing both the width and the height of the shield into three equal parts. This way, the central inescutcheon, bearing the arms of Gonzalo Fernandez de Cordoba, occupies exactly one third of the width and one third of the height of the main shield. Beyond its compositional function, this method also serves as a symbolic nod to the name of this historic military unit. The shield of the Tercio has been quite literally built using thirds. It is a small play on words and shapes that combines geometry with heraldic tradition.

An antiquarian, writing from Rostov-on-Don, sent me this image asking about the coat of arms with the tortoise.
The coat of arms with the tortoise is that of the city of Bugia, or Bujía in Spanish, or Bougie in French. It is a city in Algeria with a port on the Mediterranean. Bugia was conquered by the Crown of Castile in 1510 and remained under its rule until 1555. Therefore, Bugia belonged to Charles I of Spain and V of the Holy Roman Empire (1500–1558), and in some books and documents concerning the territories of Charles V the coat of arms of Bugia is included, whose blazon in English is «Gules, a turtle fesswise Or», and in Castilian, «escudo de gules, una tortuga puesta en faja de oro». For its identification I relied on [Sánchez Badiola, J. J.; 2010; pages 102 and 103].
In my humble opinion, I believe that in this illustration the city of Bugia is given greater importance than it actually had, especially when compared with the rest of the coats of arms represented in it, for example, León, Castile, Aragon, Navarre, Minorca, Sardinia or Granada. It is possible that the city of Bugia was included because it was an African possession.

Coat of arms of the House of Trastámara, founded by Enrique of Trastámara, later King Henry II of Castile, son of Alfonso XI and his mistress Leonor de Guzmán. Adopted at birth by Rodrigo Álvarez de las Asturias, he inherited the lordship of the County of Noreña the following year upon his adoptive father’s death. Later, his father the king granted him the County of Trastámara, among other lordships, giving rise to the House and the Trastámara dynasty, which began when Henry II ascended the throne after killing his half-brother Peter I in 1369. The Trastámara dynasty ruled in Castile, Aragon, Navarre, and Naples, and came to an end with our Queen Joanna of Castile, daughter of Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon, both members of the House of Trastámara. This coat of arms has been created for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim as a preparatory work for his armorial bearings. In that coat of arms, the House of Noronha inescutcheon bears the arms of Trastámara in the 2nd and 3rd quarters.

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael Argent, vested and nimbed Or, grasping in his dexter hand a spear Or, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing [ Gules, a chain orlewise, crosswise, and saltirewise Or, charged in the fess point with an emerald Vert, of Navarre ], upon a dragon Vert, armed, langued, fanged, and the eyes Gules.
Emblema de azur, un San Miguel de plata, vestido y nimbado de oro, teniendo en su diestra una lanza de oro, con la punta hacia abajo y en su siniestra trae [ escudo gules, una cadena puesta en orla, en cruz y en sotuer de oro, cargada en el centro de una esmeralda de sinople, de Navarra ], sostenido por un dragón de sinople, armado, lampasado, fierezado y encendido de gules.
Emblem interpreted by me as follows: an oval shape with proportions 5x6, wider than the original; the field illuminated in Azure; its charges outlined in Sable and illuminated in the colours Gules and Vert and the metals Argent and Or; the Archangel Saint Michael vested in Or, unlike others who appear in Argent; his emerald simplified into an area enameled Vert; and the whole emblem has a lightly beaten metal finish.
Due to its special characteristics, the difficulty in complying with the first rule of heraldry concerning metals and colours, and out of prudence, I categorize it as an emblem rather than a shield.
In a relief of the Church of Saint Michael the Archangel in Estella, Saint Michael can be seen fighting a dragon that represents the devil, in a similar but mirrored arrangement to that of this emblem. In that relief, the Archangel Saint Michael bears a pre-heraldic shield with its umbo. According to [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1963], the umbo of the shield is a reinforcing element that is the predecessor of what would later become the pommelly carbuncle of the shield of the Kingdom of Navarre.

By sewing a number of these pelts together, with white and blue-grey alternating,... one which easily translated into the stylized armorial form of Vair and its variants».

Canting arms of the French family of Fr. Marc Vernoy designed by him and me and emblazoned by me. A field Vert and Sable ~ Vert Noir ~ Vernoy. This coat of arms plays on the pronunciation and meaning in both English and French: «Vert» is green in English, and «Noir» is black in French. Together, «Vert Noir» sounds phonetically similar to the surname «Vernoy». This play on words is reflected in the design: A field Vert (green) and Sable (black) ~ Vert Noir ~ Vernoy.

Argent, on a pile issuant from the base Azure a saltire Or.
Escudo de plata, una pira de azur cargada de un sotuer de oro.
Illuminated and a free hand finishing.
[Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 2002; page 138] says that the a pile issuant from the base is «a triangle whose base issues from the base of the shield, being a third of its width», but when it is painted in [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 2002; page 268, figure 279] along with the pile the width of the base of both isosceles triangles is 2/3 of the width of the shield. I think the width of 2/3 is, in these 2 cases, better than 1/3 width, because with 1/3 there is not enough room for charges, as shown in the figure below.
There are scholars who say that the pile issuant from the base must not touch the upper edge of the shield and others that its tip should be in the center of the chief. In the previous image, the pile issuant from the base of the 1st shield fulfills the first affirmation, and in the 2nd shield, its tip is in the center of the chief.
I have the doubt if it should not be a saltire raguly.
