Today it's our independence day, the age of Finland as an independent
country raised for 89 years. Other than that, hasn't been a really good
day for me. I really feel thankful for the soldiers who have defended
our country in wars, to keep Finland a free and independent country.
Surely 'cause my head's been kinda mystery for even myself today I got
this idea very late, and I've made this in an hour, while also pushing
one other project forward. The flag's solid, since it's made of 6 boxes.
I couldn't get an idea how I could make it to wave like a real flag
does, while keeping all the measures right (ideas approved).

I'm off to bed now, good night.

The mauve on the horizon is a nice touch.

As far as the rippling flag, bicubic patch is the traditional means.

Didn't know you had grass in Finland.  I though you only had snow.

Just kidding,

Actually we've had snow here for some days, came rather late this time.
I imagined grass was faster to make, since I made it with just a plane
with normal statement. Snow would need a path to the flagpole :p.

Of course we do, I live in southern Finland. There's sun for few hours
per day :).

Well, AFAIK it was not only the soldiers but to the same extent
it was Finland's subtle and successful diplomacy.

You'll probably know why ;-)

Well yes, of course. Anyway, the people who worked back then for us are
the people I have more respect than anyone else. For some reason, I
always talk about the soldiers.

I actually already know why. Problem for me was the issue, not the reason.

Thanks.

For this, you should try the ClothRay facility in Megapov.
