Inspired by Sansukh and Dain Ironfoot’s battle piggies, some heraldic scribbles for the line of Durin

The basic shield of the kings of Erebor would have a crown above, with a black chevron representing the mountain under an arc of 7 stars. Beyond this base, each king would have personal elements.

Dain’s Arms have a hammer crossed with his red axe under the mountain, with a raven in flight above, a chevronel under the black to represent his lordship of the Iron Hills, and has, most importantly, boar supporters.

Notes for the Arms of Thror and Thorin under the cut.
