Upgrades Sol Alliance Flags

[Pope Dave The 3th]

Lore Impact (Small/Medium/Large): Small

Species: Human

Short Description: Updates every Sol Alliance flag with a swanky new canton, and upscales many of the older flags to a higher resolution.

How will this be reflected on-station?: Flag. (I'll make a PR for this if needed.)

Does this addition do anything not achieved by what already exists?: Yep. It makes the crusty flags better-er.

Do you understand that the project may change over time in ways you may not foresee once it is handed over to the Lore Team?: Yep.

BIG improvement over the cantons (on which my opinion is VEEEEERY outspoken), there are a couple of things that I feel should be tweaked? At least as far as my understanding of Sol's theme goes. 

 

I'll start with the pettiest going to the least petty; Sol Army and Sol Marines. The colors should be swapped, in my opinion, as it would be more thematically appropriate for the army - which has sided with the government over the navy on every occasion - to bear the color of the Alliance, as opposed to the marines.

The blue should be changed. Deep ocean blues feel very Biesellite, given it is TC's primary color and what they boast on their flag. Sol generally uses sky / UN blue, a lighter color that is more in line with their flag. The current blue is almost reminiscent of the flag of the Separatists from star wars LMAO.

The same argument applies to the flag of Mars - they used sky blue because it's a provisional Solarian government, thus the color on Sol's flag was used. Right now the Martian flag feels very dutch...

Visegrad's flag looks weird without the triangle, and I can't take it.

Hard agree with everything shimmer adds but wanted to also raise: The red in the Sol Army flag feels pretty out of place imho. Sol rarely uses red in its colour scheme, and with such a big flag like this it almost feels a little Martian. Potentially might be interesting to try a gold? Or maybe a green? Unsure.

I agree about the Visegrad comment, the one where you saw the triangle jutting out was great in my opinion though idk about the colours tbh.
