How to draw the flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
The flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is three equal vertical bands — blue, gold and green from the hoist. It flies at a ratio of 2:3.
Step by step
- Start with the right shape. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines flies at 2:3 — for every 3 units of width the flag is 2 tall. Sketch that rectangle first; a flag drawn too square is the fastest way to lose layout points.
- Divide the width into three. Mark two guide lines before you fill anything in. Even bands matter more than neat edges — the scorer cares where the colour blocks sit.
- Band 1: blue. Fill the first band from the hoist with blue. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Band 2: gold. Fill the second band from the hoist with gold. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Band 3: green. Fill the third band from the hoist with green. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Finish with the three green diamonds. Detail is the last ten percent of the score, so leave it until the colour blocks are down. Size and position count for more than drawing every line of it.
