Hello, this is the coat of arms of a fiction hellenic pagan church. Can some one help me blazing it please?

From what I've read, it seems it is common for Catholic bishops (and higher positions) to assume a coat of arms, some of them use it on their crosier, but is this regulated at all?

Are their officers at the Vatican who design the arms? Are they registered or published or is a decree issued by the Vatican when someone gets new arms? Could someone with a rank lower than a bishop assume arms? (I don't mean someone who had a right to display arms before entering the church but rather could a priest design some new arms for himself?)

I would appreciate any information or sources on this!

Thanks

Please give any suggestions/changes you have

While I’m very set on my escutcheon, I was still feeling like my crest didn’t quite sit right so I’m fridge testing a new crest with this emblazon by u/Gecktron.

The wheel represents the rota fortunae (wheel of fortune) as well as the zodiac and therefore relates to the stars on my shield as well as my motto (Fate goes ever as it must).

The wheel also represents what’s known as a “foundling wheel” which is a device for people to put unwanted babies in. I discovered through some genealogical research that my paternal thrice great grandfather was a foundling and his birth record specifically mentions that he was put in a foundling wheel. Therefore, the wheel represents the origins of my paternal line. This connects visually to the main charge of millet by being golden but thematically since the millet is a cant of my paternal surname which originated with him.

Are there any exemples of battering rams in heraldry?

I seem to have come across this a few times in the English landed gentry where people who were considered "gentlemen" or "esquires" in their time (particularly from 1600-1900), but don't seem to have an official grant, have seemingly assumed arms at some point. I know that from the college's standpoint these arms aren't usually considered legitimate, but I wanted to know what this sub thought, particularly in cases where the arms have been used for a century or more?

Sous le chef des Ducs de l'Empire : écartelé, aux I et IV, d'argent, à trois bandes de gueules ; au II, d'or, à l'étendard de gueules, à la croix d'argent, posée en bande, la trable de sable ; au III parti, d'azur, à la croix de Lorraine d'argent et gueules, à l'épée flamboyante en pal d'argent.

Is it too bright? also first time here

Anybody knows if there is an image of this year ideas?

I believe this is a real design to be granted to someone of the Behling family. Does anyone know where can I find more information about it? Based on the motto, all I can infer is that they were probably Lutheran and not catholic. I really appreciate any information or even attempts to blazon it.

Hi All,

I'm currently trying to create a pair of Heraldries for my partner and I to use within the SCA but I don't know how to actually make size adjustments in Drawshield where I created these. Could anyone help me out, please either by A: showing me how or B: doing it for me if I send the specifications of what needs tweaking?

Many thanks in advance!
