Have you begun designing an island flag?

[fudan]

i don't have the creative foresight to start planning my island layout like many others, so instead i have been spending some time planning my island flag. here are some designs i've come up with so far:

Spoiler: flags

i'd like to see what you folks have designed or any ideas you have!

 

[deerteeth]

Not quite yet, but I have been doing a lot of thinking about it!! I am just very stuck in what I want to do. I will probably attempt to incorporate the triple goddess or something similar due to my theme, and it will probably be decently minimalistic!

Your flag ideas are very cute, I especially like the one with the leaf, heart, and star! I also like your "Canadian" flag, it's cute and creative!

I'll wait until I've got the game.

You just inspired me to do my own town flag in advance, so I came up with this.
I'm not a pixel artist so I had to copy it from another fish design I found online. The P is for my island's name, Ponyo.

I haven't but I've been trying to source inspiration for one, my theme is going to be cottage/woodlandy so I'd need something along those lines. I really like the koi flag that Winona posted though!

 

[Kairi-Kitten]

These are so inspiring haha, i'm going to have to think of one when I get the game

It'll be crescent-shaped since my island will be named after a crescent-shaped island. The name is pretty short so hopefully I can write it in "cursive" over it, I'll try my best.

 

[visibleghost]

no, i barely cared about flags in new leaf and i doubt that will change with new horizons

 

[Xara]

those flags are great!!! i honestly have no clue what i want my flag to be yet lol

 

[Jhine7]

I have one in mind, but I would like to see if curved shapes like a circle will be extremely pixelated in this game.

I hate designing flags. This should be one of those optional functions *sigh*


Edit: just as I posted this, I came up with a perfect island flag design. Still if it was optional, and not mandatory, that would be a better option.

I’m thinking of going with a floral name for my island, so I’m probably going to make a flag with whichever flower I pick on it.

It is optional though? There’s always a default flag that every town starts with. You don’t *have* to change it and design your own.

Yeah but what I meant was that I don’t want a town flag at all. The default won’t be to my liking since it’s generic, but the ones I make aren’t really all that nice looking. I’ll be stressed trying to find a nice design or trying to create one, so that I don’t have the default one. I wish there was no flag at all.

What will your Island flag look like?

I don't think many of us have drawn out our final flags but I'm certainly looking for inspiration.
Creating one image that collaborates all the themes of your town is tricky.
I've decided to go with 2 themes and try to make them cohesive. One theme or style is a bit limiting.

Vivid and eclectic Latin America mixed with lush and crowded "witch in the woods" is what I want to encapsulate.

I've gathered some pictures that might influence my Island flag but I'll end up putting my own spin on it, oc.

I want to know what your thinking for yours? You can show picture(s) that inspire you or just explain, I don't mind.

 

[towki]

Mine will probably be some type of mossy log, the island painting from Spongebob, or a dolphin.

A dog.

I couldn't think what else to make it.

My NL one was a tree that I converted to QR from an image. I can do that with a dog I guess.

Probably a half moon, maybe a flower.
