Yes, it's a nod to Kozure Okami, the 'baby-cart samurai' of "Lone Wolf and Cub" graphic novel, movie and TV show fame.
I like the nickname because it's the name of one of my favourite fictional characters, and the six letters rearranged can refer obliquely to my real initials. "k.z.o. u r e"
Love that comic Kozure. Glad to see I am not the only one here.

Nice looking flag Trooper. Looks right on the money to me.

Thanks. I used the labels on the crate in "The Train Job" as my source. Lindley's image from "Bushwacked" shows the flag as a square. Maybe the proportions can be variable depending on the application.

I suppose you could alter the proportions a bit to make it square. Wouldn't be difficult to do.

Hi Trooper,
With all respect, I posted my own take on the flag in the Blue Sun room - which is not to say that yours doesn't look as accurate, simply that I have it looking slightly differently.
I think I'll take a whack at the seal next.

That is what I believe Trooper's would look like for the most part when sized down some.
Wonder what the two large stars and smaller stars in a semi circle stand for....

Heh, BrownCoat1, not to imply that you didn't read this thread, but that's exactly what I theorized about in the first post to this thread.

Kozure, I like the proportions of your flag better than those of the one I posted. I had used a 2:1 aspect, but have since learned every country has its own proportions for its flag. I just posed a square version, more like the one on the Alliance ship in "Bushwacked" in the picture that Lindley provided.

Read you theory Kozure, and your theory is as good as any I can come up with after thinking about it. I wonder if the fact that the Chinese flag is superimposed over the American flag has any significance.

Probably that was one of the points of contention during the negotiations for merging the two nation-states during the Alliance Formation Talks of 2216-18.
