How would I set these two polygons different colors?

Question

I am trying to replicate the flag in this URL: http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/flags/pm-flag.html
I can get the two stars to be the same color, but how would I make them be the correct different colors?
I have two classes each posted here:
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import java.awt.*;
public class PanamaFrame extends JFrame
{   PanamaFrame()
    {   setTitle("Panama Flag");
        setSize(450, 325);
        setLayout(new GridLayout(2,2));
        JPanel top = new JPanel();
        JPanel bottom = new JPanel();
        //StarPanel topleft = new StarPanel();
       // StarPanel bottomright = new StarPanel();
        top.setBackground(Color.red); //990000
        bottom.setBackground(Color.blue); //6633CC
        add(new StarPanel());
        add(top);
        add(bottom);
        add(new StarPanel());
        setVisible(true);    
}and
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import java.awt.*;
public class StarPanel extends JPanel
{   public void paintComponent (Graphics g)
    {   super.paintComponent(g);
        setBackground(Color.white);
        int[] x={110,119,146,125,133,111,89,96,84,75,102,110};
        int[] y={42,68,68,83,110,94,110,84,75,68,67,42};
        int n=11;
        g.setColor(Color.red);
        g.fillPolygon(x,y,n);
} Thanks

I'm new to all this graphica stuff as of this
week.... so I dont' really know what you mean by
that? CAn you explain? I need to set the two stars
to different colors... Is there something that I can
do? Or will it require much change in the code?You're already using g.setColor(Color.red) to change the color it's painted in. So, make that a private member of your class called starColor and then change that line of code to g.setColor(starColor). Then add a constructor that accepts a Color for an argument and when you create it pass it the Color you want it to be.
