This is a personal project i have posponed for quite some time but finally put to paper. Knowing who my ancestors were and what they did for a living is something that has always intrigued me, yet it's something very hard to find out unless you come from a famous lineage. However i did manage to research the meanings of the various elements that form these elegant designs, thus, getting a hint on what my family did back in the old days.

Following is my family's coat of arms (from my father's side of the family)

Tools: Mechanical pencil for sketch and Fineliner (0.2) for inking.
