Are you reffering to the meanders or the rest, the rest seems perfect to me and i am trying some meander rendering to see how sloppy different models can make it look ;p!

You mean to add correct shading like the olive branch to the sun or add shading to the acnes of each shape?

Have you ever seen any flag in your life?

Why don't you explain and directly say what you hate.

Example "I hate you X people that think Y do this Z amateur stuff"
I don't claim to be a flag expert i just show some ideas with quick AI rendering to be improved afterwards. I test the concept i don't claim that is my final flag, i will not base my final flag on a quick render AI man i will use Inkscape for the serious drawing...

He means that most flags look worse when they add shading to it, because it may make the flag maybe look a little bit more realistic, but also adds no functional purpose to a flag.

I'm more referring to the fact that no flag in history has ever had shadows because creating flags with shadows was impossible for most of human history

Why should we care what was possible or not in old times are we on some historical accuracy competition or something :o ?

Best use would be to try non-shaded flag as a base and a shaded one in non-animations.
So you think if i add shading like the picture i posted here is worse?
