Beautiful detailed work on all of them Steve. Lovely jobs.

Thanks jim just wish i could sell them, ive around 200 so far which i will get to add eventually, the problem is finding a market or at least a buyer.

I remember doing these at school many, many years ago - never put colour on colour, metal on metal, or fur on fur - and my friend, about whom I shall remain discreet in case the memory still stings, did exactly that on every single shield he painted. Quite a gift he had for not understanding a single thing he'd been taught - and getting some 20 shields wrong. Looking back, I think this was the project that kicked off my arty interests - I went from the coats of arms to painting knights in armour, complete with their colours.

It does not seem to stop the computer generated websites doing exactly that though Robert, it a big bug bare for me and its ripping off the people who buy them. I know that a coat of arms is personel to the bearer but a coat of arms at the very least should be displayed correctly.. Well thats my rant for today lol.
