Coat of Arms


(Above) The coat of arms of the Dukes of Steiermark (the Austrian state where I'm from) and my very own understanding / interpretation of it. I made this some time ago. Four years?

  5. For a minute I thought that guy was drawing blood from someone, but I got a closer look and he was painting a swirl around himself.

    I love the character and that Suessian bird above him!
