BigRed618 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 WA and OR look perfect now. I did something like this myself when I did my flag concepts, except it was the New England states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgthree Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 If you are contemplating the next flags to redesign, I would love to see you do Rhode Island and Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DolphinManatee Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 I have Michigan and Rhode Island done, they are just late in the queue.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Next up is Delaware. The blue is supposed to be based on one color from the University of Delaware's athletics logo and also a more vibrant shade of colonial blue. The other color is called buff. The three-pointed star represents the three counties in the state (fewest in the US). Pretty much this is a simplified version of their current flag. Here is the flag:So what do you think?

DolphinManatee Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 I still want C&C on Delaware, but I'll move on.----------------------------------------------------------Next up is Nevada. The colors are cobalt blue and silver. The silver part forms an abstract shape of the Silver State. It is pretty straightforward. Here is the flag:I would like some C&C, please. Thank you.

Germanshepherd Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Delaware looks great. Nevada looks a bit too awkward and forced like you can see the state outline but its kinda awkward if you get what I'm saying. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I'll second the "awkward" comment on Nevada.I wonder if it might look better if you moved the state outline all the way to the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DolphinManatee Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 I made 2 different revisions (one in a 2:3 ratio, the other one a square). Are any of these any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil G Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I really like the first one as well.Can you attempt to redo Iowa?

illwauk Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I made 2 different revisions (one in a 2:3 ratio, the other one a square). Are any of these any better?I like the first one, but it seems like something could stand to be put in all the negative space on the right. Perhaps a spade, as a dual reference to gambling and mining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed618 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I don't like the spades. They look tacky. Nevada isn't just about casinos, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veras Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I agree. I don't really think it works. What about a frond from the sagebrush, the official state flower?

H11K Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I really like spoiler 1 for nevada but i think it may look better if the outline of the state is more detailed so it does not just look like geometric shape IMO. Love how you are really creating a sense of uniqueness in each and every flag that you create! Â Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DolphinManatee Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Again, thank you all for the feedback. I made the state outline abstract because I think it would be recognizable as Nevada while keeping it as simple as possible.Anyways, after many failed attempts of trying to draw something that looks anything like a complex flowering sagebrush spray, I decided to just take the sagebrush from the current state flag, make it a silhouette, and apply them to my flags. After staring at these updated flags for hours, I thought it looked fine, but I'll let you be the judge of that. I don't know what else to say or do, so here is the latest update: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgthree Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'm not a huge fan of the recent update, but the third one is by far the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veras Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Yeah, that didn't look as nice as I thought it would. I think the problem with both the spade and the frond is that they clash stylistically with the rest of the flag. The main part is severe, straight lines, but both the spade and the frond are very curvy. I'm just not sure what could be added that would match.

DolphinManatee Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 Okay, here is (maybe) my last update on Nevada. If you have any suggestions, please tell me, I have pretty much given up.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------So next up is Utah. This is bee-centric due to the honeybee being an important symbol in Mormon culture (which significantly influences the state). The beehive represents the nickname ("The Beehive State") and the motto ("Industry"). The colors are the colors of a honeybee. Here is the flag:Any comments? Happy American Thanksgiving!
