Azul,
I am the Fulbright Fellow and I have been asked by the Dean of the College to assist. I wish to summarize what it is you would like to see on a CoA so that I get the elements correct.
I believe you are asking for a natural pine tree and a non-decorated sword. You also mentioned a yellow bend (stripe) going across the entire shield.
What color background? (I may have missed that in here somewhere).
Regards
Txec @ TFF

Azure but I would like an opened book at the top if that's ok. I would like it's natural color.

Azul S:reu da Simeon,
We need to narrow down specifically what you want before I can do a mock-up of your arms request. You asked for several things but it seems you wish to have at the top an open book with a non-decorated sword below it on an azure field. is that correct?
Thanks. I know this process seems slow sometimes but we absolutely need to get it right so you are satisfied before we ask the king for a grant.
Regards,
The Fulbright Fellow

Yes but also a pine tree and a gold stripe going in a left-up diagonal. These all represent me one way or another.

Azul S:reu da Simeon, In order to proceed in this process, I am going to upload a basic escutcheon with an azure field and the gold (or) division. I will then add one piece at a time until we reach the complexity limit of 8. At each step of the way, let me know what to change or add. Here is step 1: Blazon: Azure, a party per bend or, in dexter base a rooted pine tree natural and in sinister chief an opened book argent. Complexity: 7Txec Nordselva @ The Fulbright Fellow

Ok next, we should add a pine tree to the bottom-left region.

See previous post. I added the pine tree. We are now at complexity of 5. What next?

An opened book would be in the section where the sword should have went. I thought the sword didn't represent me much.

Ok as before, look at the previous posting for the updated CoA and blazon. We are now at complexity of 7. The maximum is 8.
By the way, I made the gold (or) bend look a little better (straighter and a little better placement on the escutcheon).

So, any further changes or should I begin the request to the Squirrel King of Arms for granting by the king?

Nope, I think it's awesome.

I'm afraid that I do not think that the tree (proper) has sufficient contrast against the azure field, my men. Might I suggest a division of the field per bend, a metal to dexter?
