An unusual design, and the satyr must be unique. Your blazon or Mr Wooten's?

Is it my computer or are there three shades of azure here? The field seem to have a slightly purpure tinge, the mantling is bluer and the bat's wing bleu celeste.

A very attractive emblazonment, Mark. I've seen his arms before, on a circular 'Celtic' shield, but they look good on a heater-shaped shield too.

The way you've arranged the mantling is interesting. It lets the shield be clearly seen, so that it stands out more.

Thank you! I wanted to shift the mantling away, but I am using the scroll at the bottom to balance.

I also see 3 shades of azure. Also, I have seen the satyr's head w/bat wings before.

Yes, there are slightly different shades of tinctures. No Purpure however. I suspect it might look different if you are only viewing form a phone (which so many people only do). I wanted the shield to be slightly different. Anyway, The armiger is pleased with the result, and so am I.

The blazon is Mr. Wooten's.
