This is a place for discussing flags and coats-of-arms. Doesn't matter if you want to do it scholarly or casually; doesn't matter if you're discussing flags of real countries or heraldry of Westeros, or if you're making OC of your own, this is a place for that.

To get started, you should probably acquaint yourself with the vocabulary used in vexillology and heraldry:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazon

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achievement_%28heraldry%29

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Illustrated_atlas_of_French_and_English_heraldic_terms (very resourceful; Wikimedia has a lot of .svg that you can use for creating OC)

Taken from the /flags/ sticky:

>>how do you make those custom flags?

>Well, any image software would do. But this is one of the best tools to get started in flag-making:
