I like it, I like it a lot!
I feel like it doesn't look as awesome as say, yours, but I guess it because I picked big items instead of small ones like yours...

It's all about personal preference. If you're satisfied, I'll work up the blazon and submit it to the King. If not, we can work on it. Let me know.

Could you put the symbol that is on the anvil a little higher?

What is the blazon exactly?

The blazon is the actual CoA (and what a smith would have used to create a shield) the graphical representation is called the emblazon.
I will move the Berber symbol up slightly but there isn't a whole lot of room so it will be just a small move.

I will move the Berber symbol up slightly but there isn't a whole lot of room so it will be just a small move. I will check with my graphic design to also help with the blurring between the anvil and the background... I already sent him the file, and we'll take a look. So if you want, he'll take it from here... We promise not to make non-major changes (like adding stuff) just making it nicer graphically.

Whatever you feel you need to do, its the blazon that counts not the emblazon. Modifications to the emblazon, however, could affect the actual blazon so I'll just hold off until you tell me (though if you want these arms granted on the next honor's day, you have about 3 days maximum as the next honor's day is, I believe, the 24th and modifications to an emblazon by a non-herald could pose problems. It's up to you though.

I think there could be a contrast problem here, because per our rules the beaver is a charge blazoned as proper that does not have good contrast with a field of a colour. Either the beaver would have to be tinctured as a metal (argent or or) or the tinctures of the field and the wavy barrulet could be reversed.

That would then present a problem with the anvil and the berber symbol. I'd go with tincturing the beaver gold (or) but that's my opinion. Which do you prefer S:reu MPF? 1. CHange the field color to argent (white/silver) and the wavy barrulet to azure (blue) and then change the anvil to sable (black) and the berber symbol to argent (white/silver) OR 2. Change the beaver to gold (or) or silver (argent).

Yes, so the beaver can become argent or or, or or or argent can become the tincture of the field.

Ok, so stupid question then... Can we put the wavy barrulet silver, keep the bottom as it is (azure) and the top white? Or put the bottom silver, the barrulet blue, and the anvil black? I have uploaded these versions here: Version A) Version B)

(Definitely better contrast; especially the second one. I found the original too dark.)
