Coat of arms generator
Name a shield, a symbol, and a color scheme, or upload a reference, then generate an original heraldic achievement: a centred escutcheon with one clear division of the field, one or two charges, flat tinctures with crisp outlines, and a helm with mantling you can keep, swap for a wreath, or leave off. Direct the shield shape, the division, the colors, the charges, and how much of the achievement appears.
Coat of arms examples
How it works
Start with a written brief or a reference image. Name the shield shape, how the field is divided, one or two charges, two or three colors, whether to keep the helm and mantling, and whether to add a crest or a pair of supporters.
YouArt creates one 1K square crest for 8 credits with flat tinctures, crisp outlines, and a symmetrical centred layout on a plain ground.
Inspect the shield's symmetry, the charge shapes, the mantling, and the empty scroll. Refine the brief if needed, then download your chosen image.
Heraldic controls
Ask for a heater, rounded, or notched shield, then say how the field is divided: split down the middle, across, quartered, or crossed by a single chevron or bend. One clear division is what keeps the crest readable once it shrinks to signet size.
Heraldry works in flat color with hard outlines rather than gradients. Name two or three tinctures such as blue, red, gold, and silver, then pick one or two charges — a lion, an oak sprig, an anchor, a key — so every shape still reads on its own.
A helm with mantling comes as standard. Ask for a crest above it, a matched pair of supporters flanking the shield, or a wreath in place of the helm when you want a different silhouette. Ask for an empty scroll and set the motto in type yourself later, because generated lettering does not come back readable.
Prompt ideas
Name the shield shape, the division of the field, two or three colors, one or two charges, and which parts of the achievement to include. Leave the motto scroll blank and add the words yourself.
A centred heater shield split down the middle in blue and gold, a silver rampant lion on the blue half and three oak leaves on the gold half, a barred steel helm with blue and silver mantling, a stag's head crest, an empty motto scroll, flat color, crisp dark outlines, plain cream ground.
A rounded shield split down the middle, a silver rose on deep blue and a black stag's head on gold, joined laurel branches above the shield instead of a helm, two doves as supporters, an empty ribbon below, flat heraldic color, symmetrical centred square composition, plain ground.
A notched dark green shield with a silver wolf's head above crossed keys and a silver chevron across the field, a barred helm with green mantling, two standing wolves as supporters, an empty banner below, flat color, hard outlines, plain stone-grey ground.
Ways to use it
Build a crest around what a family actually shares — a trade, a river, a tree, an animal — then use it on a reunion card, a family newsletter, or a gift for a relative.
Join two families' symbols in one shield for invitations, place cards, and thank-you notes, and leave the scroll empty so names and dates can be set in type later.
Give a noble house, a guild, or an adventuring party its own sigil for a campaign handout, a character sheet, or a worldbuilding board.
Sketch a crest-style mark for a family workshop, a supper club, or a team, then have the settled design redrawn in a vector tool before it goes into real use.
