A #Genderqueer #PrideShield!

On a field per bend Purpure and Vert an annulet interlaced with a bendlet Argent.

Colours taken from the flag, interpreted for #heraldry. In order to clarify that this is a genderqueer design and not suffrage (UK suffrage colours being similar) I designed the charges to resemble the letter Q.

A #GenderAnarchism #PrideShield !

On a field per bend sinister Gules and Sable a letter capital A circumscribed by an annulet issuing therefrom disjointed stems of all genders Argent.

So, it's been an odd month for me but I intend to get back to posting #Pride Shields on the morrow. To that end...

Any #PrideShield #requests?

Having prepared a full set of #heraldic #hatchings I've used almost all of them in the first hatched #PrideShield, the intersectional shield.

The idea is to present the design(s) in a way that is equally #accessible to #colourblind and non-colourblind people. However due to the nature of the hatching patterns I'm concerned about triggering epileptic seizures, so I'm putting it behind a warnings. Opinions welcome.

The #DragQueen #PrideShield has been re-rendered with a better depiction of the semé of estoile mentioned in the #blazon.

A bear #PrideShield

Pean, in first quarter a bear paw Brunâtre armed Argent.

Pean here is a fur, a variant of Ermine, so most of this shield is covered in black fur, with golden bits riveted on.

It is a paw, rather than a paw print, because that allows the claws to be tinctured separately. They’re silver, a gleaming metal amongst the dark fur of the field.

I'm pleased to announce that the designs and resources of the Armorial College of Pride are now accessible for use and collaboration!

The new library of the ACP is now a git repository, available at the link below. Every extant #PrideShield and #ProtestShield (including material not yet seen) as well as #heraldry resources such as predefined #tinctures is there now!

The collection is organised under the 'heraldicpride' organisation on Codeberg.

A #femme #lesbian #PrideShield

Rose a bordure fleury counter-fleury Argent.

On a lozenge instead of a shield, to lean into femininity; for some time women’s arms have been borne thus. Also in emphasis of femininity the line is fleury counter-fleury—it bears fleur-de-lis back-and-forth across the line.

The colour Rose is used also for its floral origin. The silver tincture is
partly because the bordure, being a charge on a coloured field, must be metal but more-so to signify inclusivity.

A #butch #lesbian #PrideShield

Purpure, within a bordure embattled Steel a lozenge Argent.

The uppermost stripe on the purple butch lesbian #pride flag gave me the perfect opportunity to introduce the Steel tincture. A resilient wall embattled against heteronormativity. I truly hope that the symbolism pleases anyone who might bear the shield.

A #Boyflux #PrideShield

On a field per pale Bleu celeste and Azure a pale raguly Vert fimbriated Or.

No field or charge of metal seemed to fit here, so I’ve fimbriated (outlined) the pale (vertical band) in gold, which sits nicely between green and blue. To carry the sense of fluctuation I have made the lines raguly which is said to represent a tree with its limbs removed, although I mean nothing by that; I just think it looks good.

A #transgender #PrideShield

Party per fesse Rose and Bleu celeste, countercharged a fesse chequy. Over all a palet Argent.

A #masc-leaning #bigender #PrideShield

A field per bend Fuchsia and Azure, on a bend Argent a bendlet Purpure, in the third quarter a mascle Or.

This variant of the bigender shield is for those who lean toward the #masculine, with a pun on the word in the charge; a mascle. There is in the history of #heraldry a single instance of the word “masculyn” in place of the usual name.

A #femme-leaning #bigender #PrideShield

A field per bend Fuchsia and Azure, on a bend Argent a bendlet Purpure, in second quarter a round fermail Argent tongue pendant.

A #feminine leaning variant of the bigender pride shield, featuring a #pun on the word with the charge of a fermail, more often known as a buckle. The tongue, blazoned pendant by convention, could also be described as being per pale to base. Draw from these details what you will.

A #bigender #PrideShield !

An #Achillean #gay #PrideShield

Bleu celeste upon a fesse Argent a cinquefoil inverted Vert surmounted by a cinquefoil of the same, pierced Or.

The counterpart to yesterday’s Sapphic shield, based equally upon the Achillean flag, After much thought, and several attempts, I settled on this form for the carnation.

#Carnations are little known in #heraldry and the few examples that I could find were, frankly, hideous.

I've just learnt that @inkscape is here on •ART! I use Inkscape for every #PrideShield and am so pleased to share an instance!

A #Sapphic #Lesbian #PrideShield!

Rose, upon a fesse Argent a cinquefoil Purpure pierced Or.

With its symbolism taken from the flag which originated on Tumblr, this is a direct representation in heraldic form. The five-petalled violet becomes a cinquefoil, the quintessential heraldic flower, whose only competitor in frequency would be the rose. Tinctured Purpure as appropriate to a violet, pierced Or, rather than of the fesse, to emphasize its floral significance.

An #apothiromantic #PrideShield.

A field tierced per fesse Vert, Argent and Gules; a cross crosslet in saltire Sable.

Based upon the flag but modified for heraldic form, the flag’s sable bar here morphs into crosslets, being the smaller crosses at the tips of the first.
