[tirrigh-heralds] Consulting herald

[Judy Harcus]

Tomas, how do you feel about a two-color background such as quarterly 
azure and sable?  This might make it easier to come up with a simple 
design that is free from conflicts.  I'd like to have someone 
double-check me (there's a lot of devices with birds to check against) 
but at the moment it looks like "Quarterly sable and azure, an eagle 
displayed, wings inverted within a double tressure argent" may be 
clear.  A double tressure is similar to a border but instead of a solid 
band, it's two narrow bands inset a bit from the edge.  Here's a device 
that has one: http://www.badger.cx/heraldry/roll/display.php?id=507
In service,
Alicia le Wilfulle
