Please make this historical New Zealand flag [1]. Swiãtopôłk (talk) 20:08, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do you want the flag background to be slightly grey per the flag displayed or to make it just as blue as the canton?  Hwi.padam   21:41, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hwi.padam Change the color, but while the flag probably had various shades of blue from the beginning, it's now faded. I think #1e3850 would be appropriate. It would also be good to change a few details of the inscription, "1" is completely different, there is less space between the beginning and end of the lower inscription and the end of the material, the holes in the "o" are less rounded and there is less space between the letters and dots. Swiãtopôłk (talk) 19:58, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will change the color and try my best on the inscription. Since it was pretty much a handmade flag, it is practically impossible to find an exactly identical font. I will modify the paths for best resembling the original ensign.  Hwi.padam   22:39, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I will withdrawal the request here if it is accepted on Wikimedia Commons first. There doesn't appear to be much take-up in recent months on either page, so I wanted to cover all bases. --Hazhk (talk) 19:19, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, could someone help me make a Sarawak barnstar similar like the example of Sabah barnstar above? Reference can be taken from Image:Original Barnstar Hires.png and Image:Flag of Sarawak.svg. Thank you. --  Ṉight Ḻantern 🏮 10:07, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Night Lantern, I made a slightly different one. My mum worked for a company that made ribbons. They didn't produce any flag-ribbons like the Sabah one. Ribbons are straight, with straight "lane" colours. The Sabah design features a clunky Sovjet design ribbon holder. I think it's much more elegant to use the sun/star in the Sarawak flag as a means to hide the connecting pieces, as they do with crowns on official medals. I used a ribbon that is clearly picturing the colours of the Sarawak flag, and left out the fabric-mimicing elements, as they disappear anyways when you use them like above. The scribbles can only make the distuinguished sign less brightly. Groetjes, Peter (talk) 14:08, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a CoA of the Town Council. The saltire with "alternating" raguly (sticking out parts) seems to be derived from the late 14th Century ¿nobleman? Austell, Sheriff of Cornwall, as seen/refelected upon on the CoA HMS ST Austell Bay, Royal Navy. The AFC and RFC (rugby) of St Austell use a regular "paired" raguly, looking like bunches of arrow shafts and feathers, pointing at the middle of the saltire cross.

@Groetjes, Peter: Thanks for the additional information! I'll try and incorporate the possible history of the arms into one of the articles if I get a chance. Thanks again! Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 03:50, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
