What should be improved! Except for the size of it then ;)


Edit: More fields? Other colours (of course), different symbols for the ranks... Tell me, or even better: Show me!

If you want the template then Pm me and I'll send it to you

Looks good, but extremely feminine (the thing Wetew showed).

What I see on Gigau's pictures is gorgeous, keep them coming! Keep experimenting with ornaments. Think about what every feature on the banners would represent, and see what rank it fits best for.

And the chest.... It's like a dress on top of armour. Maybe it would fit if this clan was dominated by women.
 
Well I thought I would make this a bit more clear. I would like you to come up with ideas for our new CoA:s.

To make it more fun :)D) you must follow some rules of heraldry:

Meaning of colours:

Metals:
Gold (Or): Generosity and elevation of the mind
Silver or White (Argent): Peace and sincerity

Colours:
Red (Gules): Warrior or martyr; Military strength and magnanimity
Blue (Azure): Truth and loyalty
Green (Vert): Hope, joy, and loyalty in love
Black (Sable): Constancy or grief
Purple (Purpure): Royal majesty, sovereignty, and justice
Orange (Tawny or Tenne): Worthy ambition
Maroon (Sanguine or Murray): Patient in battle, and yet victorious

So choose the colours you feel match the clan. One thing though, a colour can't be above another colour. The same applies to metals. Though I won't care about that if the Coat of Arm looks good...

There are some different structures to make a CoA:

100px-Ecu_d%27argent_au_pal_de_sable.svg.png
100px-Fess_demo.svg.png
100px-Blason_Capbreton.svg.png
100px-Blason_Bootzheim_67.svg.png
100px-Blason_ville_fr_Souday_%28LoirCher%29.svg.png


In order (right to left): Chief, Bend, Pale, Fess, Chevron, Cross and Saltire

There can also be heraldic animals in the coat:

And what is more heraldic then a golden platypus ;)

So if you feel for contributing then give me your ideas here. And there's no need to make something in photoshop. It's enough just to post a explanation. Thus the above picture I posted would be described something like this:

"Two fields, one blue and one red. A purple Bend from the left. A golden platypus above. Coat crowned with an open helmet, crowned with a royal crown. Surrounded by golden leaves (or what those are called)"
 
Looks good, but extremely feminine (the thing Wetew showed).

What I see on Gigau's pictures is gorgeous, keep them coming! Keep experimenting with ornaments. Think about what every feature on the banners would represent, and see what rank it fits best for.

Lol guys. It's not meant to be used in-game ;) Ingame we would only use the Coat part...

Better? Still need to do some work on "the hair"...
 
I'm leaving the crest to others... at least for now. I'm working on something that looks good on round shields...
 
I thought we were going to train today?
 
I'm waiting.... hdk said he went to eat, and should be back around 20h00. Until we are several, i'm working on banners...
 
I did a full series for all the tier levels... i consider them as a work still in progress, so if you have any comments, please share :cool: :
