Now that's a real sweet real-flame job. Make sure you post photos after the clear! Which kit did you find useful for the stencils, curves and such for this?

i made my own stencels, and figured it out before i saw it done. after seeing rides and monster garage episodes i picked up little tips. so these are my own licks and a little imitation.

i use the card board from the sand paper pouches (like the stuff at walmart). these pouches are very thin cardboard. works great

AWESOME flames Hoss. As my 17 yr old would say.. "Ishtieeght"
Amazing job of giving the flames depth. I can feel the heat comin' off my monitor ... :yesnod:

You have sure got the hang of real flames, looks real nice, well done. Just as a bit of a gripe though, as an airbrush artist I am poss looking a bit too deep at it, but those teeth look really odd on your skull, thats the only thing that spoils it with me. The flames and everything else look stunning. Hope you don't mind me pointing it out but honestly it just spoils it. Get the teeth right and its superb.

i agree w/ ya. those are the 3rd 4th and 5th scull i've ever done, so w/ that in mind i think they look pretty good. i need to make some stencels up for teeth. i tried to do everything w/ my homeade paddle stencel, and they didn't work as well for the teeth.

thanx for the constructive critisizm! and i agree w/ ya. i'll get better.

I am sure youl get the teeth right in the end, everything else is really excellent, we all start somewhere and should have seen my early skulls, not as good as yours, mine looked more like homer simpson when I first started out.
Well done anyway
