Flags as Leaderheads - Request Thread

[Monacle_Man]

oops, noob-esque double post.

 

[Amenhotep7]

I have 3 flags I want first, but I may have more .

They don't have any due date, but sometime in February would be nice, as the PW Scenario is nearing completion.

Here is one of them, all are fictional flags for Greek Kingdoms:

 

[Amenhotep7]

That in the middle is the "club of Hercules".

Honestly, a tutorial for flag leader heads would rock!

Trust me, even if it's silly, it's fine.

It's actually very basic. First, you apply a texture with around 10% opacy on the flag of your choice. The texture should make it look like the flag is made of some sort of textile, but not painted over a block of stone or something.

Then you'll need the Xenofex 1.0 filter for Photoshop, which has a "flag" option there, that makes it look wavy. The filter also works on Paint Shop Pro 8 (which is what I'm using).

After that, you rotate the flag to your liking and by using a program such as Animation Shop, you create your own single framed animation.

SpincruS, You are the man!

You dont have to worry about my earlier flag request now... I wanna see how bad I can mess one up

One more question, what resolution does the FLC have to be? same as the Large Picture?

Again, SpincruS, You are the man!

 

[Monacle_Man]

Hey, just finished my first one, this is a test of how to make custom Flags.

Thanks SpincruS!

 

[Bóreas]

that flag looks really good!
I 'd like to have a flag like that.
ok, I need flags(possibly with those graphics)
of: Brazil, 1889 and early XXth century

Your flags are perfect thanks

May I request that you make the Canadian flags (the first and now modern flag) if not I will be attempting them myself on the weekend.

 

[spincrus]

@Monacle_Man: That's really good for a first try! Try applying the texture before applying the wave filter. Also, don't always use the same texture; variety makes it look more real.

I'll dedicate some time on maybe friday, but definitely some time on saturday for the flags. So keep'em coming.

1. Flag of Saxe-Coburg i believe
2.1830's
3. Next mod
4. When you can get to it

Cheers Thorgrimm

Here is a pic of the flag

The flag you post has nothing to do with Saxe-Coburg. Its the flag of modern German state Saxony-Anhalt. Yello an black are the colors of the Prussian Province of Saxony, the emblem stands for former German state Anhalt.

Here is the real one of the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha 1826-1918, I hope :

[Thoth2282]

You think you could make this flag?
http://flagspot.net/flags/de1871~w.html

The 1903 to 1919 one that is.

 

[spincrus]

That has been done already Thoth. Actually two versions are available in both of my threads. The links are in the very first message.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Aluminum, thanks for the correction.
@Spincrus please could you do the new flag provided? Thanks


Cheers Thorgrimm

Sure thing. I'll keep the requests coming in for another week probably, since none of them are that urgent. I'm planning to do a huge batch collectively.

 

[hetairoi22]

These are som NOT urgently needed flags, just for my personal mod, where I'm trying to replace all current LHs and add some new civs... If some of these flags are already made, I apologize. Just take your time, though, as stuff for scenarios is more needed. (Note: Points 3 and 4 are the same for all)

Het22, hoping personal requests aren't too much of a nuisance.

 

[Bóreas]

Could you render me this flag of the Sioux Tribe on crow creek.
Also, put it on vertical, as there is no visable difference doing that.

 

[spincrus]

I can clear out the foldmarks (or whatever they are called. I try to avoid using any word ending with "mark", as I accidently used "burnmarks" to mean burns on the carpet. my friend laughed his butt off).

 

[Bóreas]

I think foldmarks is right, but then again, I don't speak english so well.
This is the Fulani States Flag, you can put it vertical also, and on a black background. That's if you can render it like that...
BTW, could you make flags for egypt, ethiopy, russia(a different one), modern china, Japan, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Grand Colombia, Mexico, Denmark, Sweden, Piedmonte-Sardegna and Spain?

 

[spincrus]

Denmark, Sweden, Piedmonte-Sardegna, Spain, Japan, and I guess Argentina are already present in my other packs.

Oh I seriously have to put up a list of what already exists.
