In the mood to throw together flags again.

Can I get feedback on these? I’m going for “space empire” here, hence white on black and the futuristic-seeming selection from  a sheet of graphene. Blue was because blue looked better than grey. Are these accidentally the same as something else or otherwise a problem? Any ideas for improvement?

The circle-nodes on the bottom one feel a little unnecessary.

The color balance on the top one feels off- maybe blue background and entirely-white shape?

Revisions!

Thoughts?

I like the top one. Hexagons are great for making stuff look futury. Maybe point the ends of the spokes? As is the flat edge kind of softens it. Don’t really like the nodes, though just having on the outer ring might work.

    The aspect ratio might need tweaking. Otherwise they look pretty good.

  9. consulo-cuniculos answered: An (open) empire wants its flag to preempt challenges of subjected peoples, so it wants its iconography “large” and “sharp” give any niggas steppin up second thoughts about fuckin’ with the first class clique. No one fears “Jews in Space.”
