[Steppes] Insignia

[alkudsi at aol.com]

When I went to this site, the only insignia for Steppes shown was the Oak.? While we probably do need more of the Oak insignia, from what the Baroness has said, we need the insignia for the other, non-armigenous awards such as Grice and Acorn, as well.? I also checked the Steppes website, and could not find "official" descriptions of the insignia.? This is a herald question, I believe, and I would think that this points out a deficency on the website, as well.? We do not list the other awards, only the Oaks, the Artisans, Champions, Bards, and Warlords (and maybe a couple of others).

  This link should be helpful for people interested in making insignia.  It 
contains the text for the scrolls for most kingdom and many baronial awards.  
Above the text of each award you will find a description of the badge and the 
insignia for the award along with a graphic.  
   
  Please note that the badge and insignia are two different things:  the badge 
is what is drawn on the award scroll and the insignia is what a person wears.  
They are not always the same, so check that out before you put in hours of hard 
work.  At a recent class I attended on making insignia, we were shown many 
pieces of beautiful work--creatively done, but unusable due to inaccuracies.  It 
was quite heartbreaking.
   
  Hope this helps.
