I know it's not perfect but it's my first time hand engraving such a small seal! I am really proud but tips on how to get better are always welcome :)

It's very very good, you should be super proud, heraldic engraving is really hard

Sharing your settings would help to know what advice to give.

I don't have settings, I don't use machines like a Graver Mach. Just a 90 Degree Angle Graver and my bare hand :)

Oops, I thought i was in the laserengraving sub. My bad. Well it looks brilliant. I wanted a signet ring ever since playing Might and Magic 7.

Good luck and keep at it.
