This week I was too busy, so I couldn't post anything in blog. Just for don't go blank, here's a design for an alternate jack of Brazil.
The current jack is the following:
This flag was adopted in imperial times, when a new star was added to the flag every time a new province was created, always keeping the cross layout (inspired by the Southern Cross). With the proclamation of republic, each province became a state in own right, but the jack isn't changed since then. This way, while the country has 27 states, the flag still have 21 stars.
I propose little changes to the jack: change the number of stars to 27, and the ration from the 3:4 to 7:10 (the standard ratio for Brazilian flags). After studying some arrangements, I propose the following:
The construction sheet of the flag is very simple, and I can provide it if necessary.
Comments are welcome.
Next week, I hope the posts frequence to be normalized.
This flag aft I like, is similar to that used by the U.S. Navy.

In Spanish this flag goes by many names: Bandera de proa, bandera de tajamar, de bauprés o torrotito.
