Draw the flag of
Guinea-Bissau
What you are drawing
The flag of Guinea-Bissau is a vertical band at the hoist beside horizontal bands in red, yellow and green, with black star. It flies at a ratio of 1:2. On the PlayVexle difficulty scale it rates ★★★☆☆ — the kind of flag where the colours are easy and the arrangement is not.
How to score well on this one
- Block in the largest area first — on this flag that is red — then work down to the smaller shapes. Layout is 20% of the score and it is judged on where the blocks sit, not how neat the edges are.
- The black 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 1:2. The canvas is already the right shape, so fill it edge to edge rather than leaving a border.
Stuck? Open a memory hint
Anchor on the biggest shape: a vertical band at the hoist beside horizontal bands in red, yellow and green. Everything else on the flag hangs off that.
