Thanks Eddy, all I can say is that I have no copyrights over this conversion and there's an endless range of different ACW flags of both sides to choose from...

Hello Gerard, I was going to send you a message and ask how this bust was coming along my friend, but now I won't have to. The flag is really impressive, the lettering looks fantastic. Is it all freehand, or did you use transfers? Either way, its still amazing. A very beautiful, and colorful piece Gerard, I'm sure others will follow your lead and convert Carl's great bust, into a piece of there own. As you have stated, endless possibilities with this one. Congratulations, excellent workmanship. Regards, SG
