My sketch
my sketch/tracing of the Icelandic coat of arms. pretty similar to the one i posted but I am gonna add some accents to the wings and maybe make a funky color change.
Banner addition
this is the banner style that I am going to incorporate into the coat of arms. Along with this slight modification I am going to also alter the coat of arms a little bit. My goal is to keep the idea of the Four Protectors but to change them slightly to add my own touch. The middle of the banner will read "Jonsson" in Old English font hopefully, we'll see when its a little further along.
Iceland is green, greenland is ice
For the heraldic logo, I am going to do a slight remake of the current Icelandic National Coat of Arms. My father is damn near 100% Icelandic so I thought I would do a "logo" for the Jonsson family. Jonsson is the Icelandic spelling of Johnson and he is pretty proud of his heritage so what better than to incorporate this project with the Jonsson family. He actually looks kind of like the "giant" on the right side of the piece so it fits even better. Also, I am going to take away to rock underneath the shield and going to put a banner that says "Jonsson" or "Iceland." Haven't decided quite yet.
