New heraldic cote

[alysten]

I have the start of a new cote  which will become Baron Larry's rapier armor.   I seem to be doing more heraldic clothing. This project is in the preliminary design stages. This will be worked into 100% linen, with the details appliqued on.  The sword will have flames, as per the device.  I just haven't worked out good flame artwork that I like. Personally I am partial to version 2, but it isn't my decision.

Version 1

That is pretty much what I was thinking. Unfortunately, his arms were passed in 1987. Arms were a little more 'relaxed' I think.

You are speaking in SCAdian…I don’t understand what you are saying.

These arms aren't even historically correct by any standards. ;-)

I kinda figured you meant something like that when you said 'relaxed'. However, I appreciate the clarification!
