Wanted: Irish Flag Opinions

Post by RebBugler »

For the HD Turbo Flag Set coming soon, please help me decide, from left to right, one, two or three.

I'm leaning toward three, but it really represented just one regiment, whereas the other two were more universally represented by many different Irish Regiments, with just the name banners being different.

For the first series I'd say the middle one, particularly if that form was more common.

These flag sets are very cool RB.

Might we see some USCT flags at some point? Either standard or HD. B)

I like the third one the best, especially if you can keep that cloth look to it!

But, shouldn't you be putting a battle \ worn effect to them?

The only true logic is that, there is no true logic!

I like both #2 and #3. Davinci brings up a good point. The flags need to be more weathered. I think the Rebel flags in DRF look battle worn, but the new Yankee flags look a bit too clean. Hi def smoke, sun-fading and dirt would look awesome, IMO!

Nice!

#3 my favourite (which reigment was it?), then #2.

But as you say - #2 more generic so probably a better match

Yeah, I'll do the third as is if chosen, retaining it's cloth and worn look.

Yeah, the worn look is probably best, but it's tough to make it come off looking decent. Also, any dominant blemish will display in all the flags and look, well, cloned.

BTW, Irish nationals get two votes. ;)

Three is the 9th Massachusetts.

Very pretty!

I too think #3 is the nicest looking, mainly because it looks more desaturated (my new word!)and real, and #2 is the nicer of two generic flags.
