Painting Flames and Graphics 101 - Lesson 1: Basic Flames

Got a question about painting or decals? Using an air brush or rattle cans? Wanna learn how to paint flames and take a good picture of it? It's all in here.

Hey! What are you trying to say. :-? ;)

Naw, I know exactly what you mean. I was making my wife check those flames out when I first found that page. I threatened to do it on my bit, but I couldn't find my Sharpie...:roll:

i wonder how it would look if you could make the bitpimps logo with flames coming from under it and around it as a hood decal. i might throw something like that together if i find some flames that look like they would work.

I want to do grafiti flames coming up around the front wheel well and continuing to where crazydave's flames are. If any of you suscribe to Radio Control Car Action, they show you how to paint Grafiti, Gothic and classic flames in teh August 03 issue. Or you can look at it in your local border's

in my searches for flames i found these and got sidetracked.
just some ideas there not done yet hence the shit quality (4:00 am job) aight i fixed the quality on the screen because it was transparent by makin the background white for u to see (may take a while for the changes to take place tho)

Wow CJ, that was alot of really cool flame graphics. I actually think I'm going to be using some of those. I liked that they also had scallops, I was planning to do some scallops, but I was afraid I would get them crooked.
