a shield with a night sky with fireworks, in the centre is a bottle of Scotch Whisky and at the bottom are three whisky tumblers on a white surface, each with a dram poured. Thanks for reading, and Happy New Year!

#heraldecember2024 30: Viva

I found the French phrase "vive la bagatelle," basically "long live frivolous nonsense," expressing a carefree attitude, and set out to make a crest to match. The latin VIVAT LEVITATE is a rough translation of the sentiment, closer to "he lives lightly." #heraldecember
A drawing of a heraldic shield with elaborately curled edges. It's split into four quadrants, with the upper left and bottom right decorated with a vair (squirrel fur) pattern in purple and yellow, and the opposite quadrants in solid green. Centered in the shield is a clown in a pierrot-like outfit wearing a big two-pointed jester hat. Under the crest is a curled ribbon reading VIVAT LEVITATE.

Using a mantle as a ghostly shroud instead of a symbol of royalty. #heraldecember
A drawing of a heraldic crest: a dark blue shield with a white candle with a glowing yellow flame centered on it. Draped around it is a ghostly translucent mantle, and peeking out from under it at the top is a woman's head with long wavy hair, serenely smiling.

a blue shield with a white diagonal band from top left to bottom right. On the band are three brown discs with gold detail. As much as they look like cookies, this is meant to represent cross sections of telegraph cable going across the Atlantic

a white shield. at the top is a gold band with three figures in academic dress with grey hair. the main part of the shield shows the back of someone with brown hair wearing academic dress. it's meant to represent a PhD viva (this is as close as I think i'll ever get)

Heraldic shield divided into quarters. The top left and bottom right are red, each with a gold sheaf of wheat. The top right and bottom left are white, each with three red fire irons connected to form a triangle, their striking surfaces each touching a piece of flint surrounded by flames.

A crest for Casey, perhaps. #heraldecember
