Heraldic artwork

[Eduardus]

When it comes to the field of heraldry, it's almost limitless.



These are ready to be hanged on the wall.

The first two are two-faced tempera paintings on hardwood (recycled furniture doors, about 55x45x2 cm, HxlxD). The idea was to make use of both faces, so basically you can hang it with any face, using a dedicated hanger. The holding points are on the sides.
The third one are in fact two oil on canvas paintings (90x30x1 cm, HxlxD) I've put together for easier display purpose.

I've asked the customer for a nice photography, I got this quickshot instead. Nevertheless, it's welcome:

Watch the pavise.

More to come, but difficulty to post. How is it, already, in order to easily attach pics ? Thanks.

Not that it's difficult, but it is not easy.

The ideal solution is to use an external hosting site, I use https://imgur.com/

Upload your pictures there (it's a simple drag and drop) then you can directly copy the BBcode and paste it in the reply window and the picture will show full size (once posted). If you are posting very large pictures, use the [SPOILER]image link goes here[/SPOILER] command.

Feel free to poke me if there's something you don't get about the procedure.

From first to last: back of the pavises; Ordo Draconis model; Dual serpent model; Impaler model; Simplified/varies model.

The standardized size is 14x5 cm (hxW). These are made for a foot lancer model. When it'll be replicated (I hope I'll get enough money to buy a Lidar equipped 3D printer... and hope it'll not screw everything, I mean, that it will be better than manually duplicating the original models, with silicone mold and all), the collection will grow.
It's made out of cardboard, plywood "skin", lots of white glue, then bent and then you make the handgrips, with hempseed fiber (for the material as well as for the texture)/thick thread (if smaller model).

The next stept is, as you guess, painting them. With acrylics. (I still have to add lacquer)

If you're asking me why/what/when/how etc, know that the inspiration came from the factions' shields of the Third Age mod.

After that, it was just a matter of time before I started crafting my own.

Grease pencil on A4 sketch paper.

And using some (phone-y) filter:

All with a great thank you to Flinn !

[Eduardus]

And to watchers and critics !

[Eduardus]

Not to mention myself for the time lost but well spent in crafting "things of no value", while I could "make money" (as the saying goes around here) !

[Eduardus]

"Lost" as you could guess.

[Eduardus]

Those were the first ever.

Have to reupload these. I was a member of Imgur until I was hit by woke agitprop. So I chose, rather than ask forgiveness like a worm, to fire in return, and to delete my account.
