Here is a step by step if your interested.

Thanks.

I dont know your race, and no offence to this race, but you just completely sounded like a mexican when you said "wanna sell it?"

that aside, that looks sweet man, the real fire always looks great. You have done a great job, but remember, practice doesnt make perfect.... perfect practice makes perfect

Awesome work for it to just be practice! If I had any advice it would be to make the source of flame a single source that wraps licks of flame around the various sides.

That's sweet. I've always thought flames on the side of custom cars or PCs look proper awesome.

Wow.......


Kickass paintjob though! Makes me want an airbrush. You've got alot of really cool tutorials on that airbrush site. Hopefully I'll be able to use one of them sometime. The faux carbon fiber tutorials are especially interesting.

It took me about 2 hrs from start to finish.

The real time consuming part is the time between clear coats(10min per coat / 4 coats). The time between colors of the design is nil because airbrush paint pretty much dries as you paint.

Thanks for the props.
