Draw the flag of
Burkina Faso
What you are drawing
The flag of Burkina Faso is two equal horizontal bands — red, green and yellow from top to bottom. It flies at a ratio of 2:3. On the PlayVexle difficulty scale it rates ★★☆☆☆ — a flag most people can reproduce closely on the first attempt.
How to score well on this one
- Colour is 70% of the score, so get the 2 bands down as flat blocks before anything else. Which colour touches the top is the single thing most people get wrong.
- The yellow star counts for the final 10%. Roughly the right size in roughly the right place scores nearly as well as a perfect one — do not start there.
- Draw it at 2:3. The canvas is already the right shape, so fill it edge to edge rather than leaving a border.
Stuck? Open a memory hint
Lock in the order — red, green then yellow — from the top down. Say it out loud once and you will still have it tomorrow.
