maxoconnor Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) I just finished my rendition of the proper flag for the Armies of the Southern Cross. Harmony Gold uses the logo for the Tactical Air Force as their default logo for all of Southern Cross but this one is correct. Southern Cross is my favorite Anime and I've spent a lot of time working on this to be true to the couple of images that are seen in the DVD. I took the two screen shots of the flag and created this image trying to utilize proper heraldic style which is what they would use. I hope you like it.

And yes, they have been told (repeatedly) they were using the TAF Eagle which is improper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehPW Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 these flags, from SC, they represent specific, different branchs of SC's armed forces right? Is this flag supposed to represent the Combined military might (think: Joint Chiefs of Staff)? what was the Goverment flag of the SC look like then?

What the actual Glorie civilian government's flag(I.E. stars and stripes) looks like is never actually shown.

maxoconnor Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 these flags, from SC, they represent specific, different branchs of SC's armed forces right? Is this flag supposed to represent the Combined military might (think: Joint Chiefs of Staff)? what was the Goverment flag of the SC look like then? It is the flag of the entire government on Glorie, so in that sense yes, it is the flag for all of the Armies on Glorie. There are only two scenes that show the flag so I had to work from these and tried to keep it as accurate as I could while filling in the vagarities with known heraldic colors and symbols. Glad you all like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoryHolmes Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yes. We need more Southern Cross love. It's rapidly taking over the 1st Generation as my favourite part of the Robotech story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinG Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I test out the SC section of RB on my 4 and 6 years olds sometimes. Every time I do they ask me to turn it off and put something about Rick or Scott back on. Ha! What do they know? Personally - I like about 1/3 of it. Some great character interaction and even animation sometimes. The other 2/3s - well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I agree, there are some cool things about Southern Cross. I need to finish my DVDs of the original Japanese series. I only wish someday we could get Captain America to do about a 1/48 or 1/32 scale Hovertank!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I didn't think Harmony Gold would squash it, I think a Kickstarter would be the best route to getting a decent quality Spartas (or maybe Ajax).

CoryHolmes Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 *whimper* I'm already behind in paying the Captain for is Invid Shocktrooper kit. The last thing my finances need right now is something like that. And by that, I mean, please dear God let it happen!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
