If I encountered those squirrels on the street, I would give them whatever they wanted.

I personally dot like the attitude of the new squirrels... Moreso they don't act as supporter but tend to come in front of the arms instead. Btw, instead of squirrels, they appear like lemurs to me (just joking  ) |

"Whereas, this more complicated version remains unofficial but is very attractive" although not defined properly, it gives a statement to officialize the popular illustration... thus I feel that without the so called dandelions and branches the arms does not remain as attractive, thus the meaning, purport and effect of the then framed law is defeated.
Hence I would request that the new Cosa may amend the present law to take care of the deficiency (and in the meantime UGOT may be asked to either shelve this particular project, or prepare an alternate arms with the branches and the so called dandelions).
Whatsay Talossa?

Can we also try a different style of the "Ben" character?

Why cant we have a squirrelish squirrel?
Further two twisted & turned branches (one going straight up, while the other going towards the crown) on each side would give a more fuller representation.

The squirrels need to be of the colouring that the local squirrels in Milwaukee have. I don’t know what species of squirrel that is, but I doubt it is all white.

By the way, I think I should call myself the Kibitzer of Arms.

Why cant we have a squirrelish squirrel? What do you mean? Actually squirrels are not good animals for supporters job, especially if they support an anulet :-) Because usually they're a sort of ball (it's not easy to find a decent design)... In fact in this version of the Arms (which lacks the dandelions - I'm not able to put them in succession but I can note that it uses the same crown of the lesser state arms before my redraw) they're placed below the anulet, and not at his sides.  I'll try to remove thier tongues and a version with different but proper squirrels. However I like the ones I've used in the last draft... Where exactly? The squirrels need to be of the colouring that the local squirrels in Milwaukee have. I don’t know what species of squirrel that is, but I doubt it is all white. Actually they're grey not white... I'll try a darker shade... |

Just a thought about the crown on the seal. Shouldn't we consider making it the Talossan crown as opposed to some general crown?

Wouldn't that mean a Burger King paper crown? I think a general crown is better so that we aren't seen to be claiming some other realm’s crown. The crown in the current Greater Arms is the Crown of the Commonwealth Realms, and that is a no-no.
