Not long ago, Nibs called my attention to an intriguing project on another website: the Dickens Character Coat of Arms project. People came up with some pretty cool coats of arms for characters like Mr. Krook and Nemo. We thought it would be fun to do the same thing here, so if you want to try designing one for a Dickensian character, post a link to your creation in the comments section when you're done! You can find some ideas at the Albino Krake site linked above.
As for me, I'm technologically impaired, so I'll probably just draw one and take a picture. (I'm artistically impaired as well, but I can at least trace things pretty well!) But the more sophisticated among you can probably find some sort of computer program to use.
By the way, looks like the Dickens family had its own coat of arms, if this site is to be trusted!
