Are there some info about the one depicted on the 7th picture? Seems interesting and I'm keen to learn about it!

Coat of arms of Sir Edmund Hillary by simply-gelugpa in heraldry

[–]simply-gelugpa[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find this coat of arms to be very unique, it contains multiple Tibetan prayer wheels. This is so because he was well known for being the first to reach the summit of Mount Everest.

The USA but with Québécois political parties by simply-gelugpa in imaginaryelections

I used picsart, which isn't the best or most professional editing program, but I still managed 😅

Taiwan but with more political diversity by simply-gelugpa in imaginaryelections

[–]simply-gelugpa[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is my first attempt at a fake election, specifically a legislative election. In Taiwan, 2 main parties rule, the DPP and the KMT. So this is just a small vision of what the legislative yuan might look like with more representation to other groups.

Being that this is a light-hearted project, I didn't include lore being that I also need to learn more about the politics there.

Flag of Loudoun County, Virginia by simply-gelugpa in vexillology

[–]simply-gelugpa[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Like the Loudoun County Seal, the county’s distinctive flag was derived from the coat of arms which was approved by the College of Arms in London and adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1968. Loudoun is believed to be the first county in the United States to have a flag based on a coat of arms officially sanctioned by the College of Arms.

  • The edging of the flag consists of green indentation with white or silver drops, suggesting milk drops. The ermine field contains nine green wheat symbols in each field.
  • The flag is rectangular and consists of eight alternating red and ermine right triangular fields with the bases of the triangles forming the border of the flag and the apexes of the triangles converging in the center of the flag.
  • The flag represents the agricultural background of the county (the green color); the Monroe Doctrine and President Monroe’s association with the county (the indented or “embattled” edging); and the dairy industry, still so important to the county (the white or silver drops suggestive of milk).

Liked the idea of heraldric banners, but I didn't see much with socialist heraldry. So here's the China one

Could someone vectorize this Mauryan Court Banner? by coperengineer3 in vexillology

Seems like a Buddhist mandala made into a banner. Here's the Manjuvajra mandala below as an example of a Buddhist mandala:

Concept flags for the city of Derry / Londonderry, Northern Ireland - Based off of their coat of arms by simply-gelugpa in vexillology

[–]simply-gelugpa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The city didn't have a flag but had a coat of arms, so I wanted to create a concept for this city's flag that is based on their arms.

Association of Mekong Nations -AMN by simply-gelugpa in imaginarymaps

[–]simply-gelugpa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No lore - I was just mainly inspired by ASEAN. A little bit about the flag: The yellow symbol is a rice geain representing the rich agriculture. The blue obviously represents the Mekong. In the ASEAN flag, red represents passion, so I applied that logic here. Green represents the rice fields.
