Title: West End Flag
Post by: paroch on February 23, 2008, 12:41:18 PM
Maybe it's simple, maybe someone can do this quite quickly, or maybe someone can point me to a tutorial so I can do it myself......... but what I'd like is a flag for my MD West End.  The West End flag is a variation on the England flag.  A simple cross of claret on a light blue background, instead of the Red St George's cross on a white background.

Here's the flag:

Please note that the cross is not red, it is claret, or maroon.

Any takers?

Thanks in advance :D

Here is a tutorial from ST.

It is a gigantic pain and tedious work.  Good luck.

Thanks for those.... :thumbsup:

@getdown11 - wow that tutorial does look kinda over my head.  But thanks for pointing it out.  I may well give it a go and see what I can produce.

@Diggis - thanks, an interesting thread.  It's gone quiet and seeing as it takes so long for Geoff to make them, I'm not sure that it would be fair to ask.  I didn't realise it was such a BIG job (showing my naiveity on anything more technical than re-lotting!)

If I remember right, Geoff has a template for scandinavian cross flags.

Given that Geoff is the only one who really knows how to do it, it can't hurt to ask.

But that is not Scandinavian Cross, its normal cross flag.

@Vester and Krio - As Krio points out, it's not a scandinavian cross.  Close, but not quite  ;)  I suspect in game the difference would be miniscule.

@ Diggis - I guess you're right.  I'll post up and PM a request and keep my fingers crossed.
