Really, really nice. I continue to admire your creativity. The only thing that strikes me as a little jarring is the inclusion of your initials. If it were me, I would forgo those and let the heraldic elements stand on their own.

Nice work, but I agree with David. Lose the monogram. I’d move the banner over to the column with the narrative and lower the standard to fill the space above the achievement. If that alters the ratio of the page too much, you can always center your name over the whole thing.
I’d also lose the monogram, at least in such a prominent way. If you’re signing your art by having it in the corner, that’s one thing. In which case it should be more simple and logo-istic, and probably be simply black.
Overall though, I like the work
ditto Josh. There is abundant historical precedent for monograms but IMO better relegated to a rather minor position when shown with traditional heraldic display.
After a little work and some advice from someone way up in the world of heraldry, here is the revision.
