Well, if we follow the description on the page, we get something like the attached; there are not shades specified, so we'd have mostly standard colours. Should we do otherwise? Do we trust the oblast to be able to show a good screen representation of their flag?

[Ed Note: This reply was sent after a visitor emailed us about the difference in color shade].
The coat of arms of the Region of Gomel is green shield with
silver cross (silver cross in red shield - ancient coat of arms
of Gomel City from 1590). In the centre of silver cross is small

the top part of a cross is silver archer. In the left part of a
cross is a black horn (from the coat of arms of Rogachyov City).
