True Fire Help

[KansasJeep]

Hey guys. I'm wanting your advice on the true fire. I've attempted it for the first time and it didn't turn out very good, but i had to start somewhere. My main question is...How do you do them? Like what steps. It seems everyone does them different. Could you guys maybe tell me how YOU do them and post a picture of how they'll look. Thanks, Jared

You have to develop your own style and that comes from endless and sometimes frustrating practice. Everyone does them different and I'm not an expert but I do it in layers. Make the background fire with darker colors and they get lighter as you come out also representing the hotter part of the flame. There are a LOT of color combos too. Each done with a candy tinting. I usually wind up with about 9 layers of base and candy alternating. Its hard to explain on here. Its best to do a one on one with someone to teach you some basics.
