Looking good, those great dudes at the flag request mod, plus your own skills are something I wish I could do, (getting closer to my old skills, now I'm getting used to GIMP & Paint Combo).
I do not intend to seem like I'm brown nosing you Gen.G.
Flag comments:
Germany, looks good, maybe a little simple, but effective. Personally I feel that the cross, is a good size, maybe have a little gold 'piping' around the inside of cross's silver edge; so it looks like it has a black stripe, though the gold would be half as wide as the silver.
After all, it is the Greater German Reich, needs a little bit of subtle colour power. Could have a different "Reich im Waffen" pic for the shields used by its forces.
Italy (Papal/San Marino ?):
Nice, good choice. If its Papal State; "Call out the Swiss Guards! Avanti in the name of the Holyness! (note. he could be very holy, if he was available as a Field Marshal, and got shot in combat).
White & Blue Flag (with Crest):
Greater Finland/Lombardy or Slavic allied faction?
Simple, effective and attention grabbing; nice mix of design and colours.
Manchurian Empire:
What can I say, (saw this in the Flag Request thread, I'm a frequent viewer.) Effective;y different, much nicer than the other boring Chinese style flags. Like the Small Sun the Emporer/Dragon looks towards; either it represents a divinity, mandate from heaven, or its a nod towards Japans 'help' in the 30's & WW2 (I don't mean to offend anyone, about the phrase 'help' Manchukwo).
Turkish Ottoman?:
Good, colourfully done. Bars (US looking), do they symbolise puppet/allies of them?
French/Belgian/Dutch or Deitstaat?:
Wonderfull, maybe too could have seperate shield design for its forces.
Any flags you need ideas about, I could 'Paint' some if need be, for the FLag Request Team to go over, if they are chosen.
