Your flag and symbol are both very nicely crafted, and I love the symbolism, but your "coat of arms" is not an armorial bearing at all. *Pet peeve alert*

You said that about Matbaa's coat of arms, didn't you? :no

Oh well, I'll call it the County Symbol or something, then :thumbsup

IMHO, it has to be mounted on a shield of some kind in order to be considered a coat of arms, and it needs to be something (or a combination of somethings) which could conceivably appear on a knight's shield. Of course, the outrageous quartering we see on the achievements of some old families is far too decadent.

I'll grant you the "on the shield" part...

So they're not technically arms. Fine. But they're still representing my county :thumbsup
