Draw the flag of
United Arab Emirates
What you are drawing
The flag of the United Arab Emirates is a vertical band at the hoist beside horizontal bands in red, green, white and black. It flies at a ratio of 1:2. 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
- 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.
- There is no emblem to draw here, so a clean, well-proportioned set of colour blocks can score in the nineties.
- 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, green, white and black. Everything else on the flag hangs off that.
