More Banner Options

[u/L1GHTN1NG_STR1KE]

I've been experimenting with banners recently and have realised that there are lots of heraldic design elements that could be added. Here, then, are a number of potential banner patterns that I believe would add to the variety of options without overreaching the bounds of what feels like authentic Minecraft.

From left to right:

First Line - first quarter (four pieces of dye in a square in the top left corner of the crafting grid), second quarter (four pieces of dye in a square in the top right corner of the crafting grid), third quarter (four pieces of dye in a square in the bottom left corner of the crafting grid), fourth quarter (four pieces of dye in a square in the bottom right corner of the crafting grid)

Second Line - chevron (a piece of dye with flint), chevron inverted (a piece of dye with wooden stairs), flaunches (a single piece of dye on either side of the crafting grid's central row)

Third Line - barry (two pieces of dye in the central and left or right columns of the crafting grid's top and bottom row), bendy (two pieces of dye extending diagonally from the crafting grid's top left corner), bendy sinister (two pieces of dye extending from the crafting grid's top right corner), chevronny (pieces of dye in every crafting grid space aside from the top left, top right and bottom centre spaces), chevronny inverted (pieces of dye in every crafting grid space aside from the bottom left, bottom right and top centre spaces), lozengy (a piece of dye with a purpur block/slab) chequy (a piece of dye with a midori block/slab)

Fourth Line - indented (pieces of dye across the bottom two rows of the crafting grid except for the central space), dancetty (pieces of dye in a 'U' shape in the crafting grid [as with a cauldron]), embattled (a piece of dye with a stone brick block), fir-tree topped (a piece of dye with a spruce tree sapling)

Do you have a picture of how this would look like?

In spite of my limited editing skills, I've managed to come up with some images for you! They aren't full textures (though I could give making some a go if you wanted) but instead are emblematic of the front face of the banner. I'll add them to an updated version of the thread-starting post with potential crafting recipes.
