So I just spent HOURS drawing this thing... and it's finally done. Problem is, I feel like it needs something. It's supposed to be a fox (for my town Foxbelle) but I also want it to look tribal. I feel like it needs some colour but have NO idea what colours to do for it. Any suggestions? My town is a maritime/nautical/piraty/sailor kinda town.

Any suggestions/opinions are appreciated!

That looks awesome~
Maybe you could try inverting the colours, make the fox white and the background black.

I also love the name of your town... makes me want to restart ><

I think a white fox and a black background would look awesome.

Thank you! I may try that too. And my town is actually named after the main setting of a story I'm writing. I like your town name too! Starfall is a lovely name for a town. Sounds relaxing :)
 
I think you picked the best image out of the results too lol
The rest look kinda bleh, but that one has got exactly the right amount of detail.
Makes a great flag.

Thank you! :) Yeah, and they get too complex so when transferred to pixel, they look weird. I'm so scared to tamper with it though to invert it... I spent like 4 hours trying to finish it. But it'll be worth it in the end, it sound like it'll be cool.
 
Very cool! I love the idea of inverting the colors - more like the jolly rogers. Perhaps blue triangular striping on the top and bottom? If I recall correctly that's suppose to mean water in heraldic terms.
 
I think the original white background is easier to read. But you could do like dark red on pale taupe for example…!

I think the fox neck area right under the fox's mouth is maybe a little too close together. I might erase just a little bit so there's a little more of a gap there, less of a tangent.

It definitely looks tribal. :)
 
Thanks everyone! I might have a different method that MAY work better for the inverting, so I'll post that too!

I may also open a flag commission shop in the future. Send me a pic you want to be made into a flag and I may be able to do the job!
 
I have found a better method for inverting. Now it looks more like the jolly rogers. What do you guys think?
