Good one.

Pretty cool lookin. Wonder how they did it. Serious patriots know though, that the USA flag is really only supposed to be a cloth flag.

Well, I don't think they were "airbrushed". Maybe they were "hydro-dipped" ( Hydrographic transfer ) with a transfer film applied ?

Not knocking those reels or anything else with the Flag emblem on it, like bumper-stickers, clothing, etc. Guess that means I'm not serious about other peoples opinions on the proper use of the Flag.
