Thanks Nsr160

I will practice more and I try slow down and think about what Iam doing I think I rised this one, I did not have a referance photo, so next time I will get the referance then look at the shapes.

I will add more freehand. Thank for the referance site great photos at the site.

No problem.

But dont think too much.
There is a ting, you have to be very random.

Change shealds often. That helps alot.

Hi All

Here is my next practice with the local candys, I dont think they have the pop, I think the colours are different to the HOK candys, well I will just have to practice some more to get it correct.

All help welcome.

Hey Folks,

I'm back with my 2nd attempt at True Flames.
It took me about 4 hr to complete.
I used an old street sign I had hanging in the garage as my canvas.

I used AA transparent colors.
They are as follows:
Trans white
Trans orange
Trans sun gold
Trans fire red
I also used a flat black auto primer from a rattle can as my base coat, and a rattle can clear to as my top coat.

I had allot of fun doing this and I also learned a couple of things along they way.
I know it's not very good, but I'm fairly happy with the results. As I do more of this type of thing, I'll surely improve, I hope ?
Please let me know how I could do better on my next try.
Oh ya, the whole in the middle of the flames is where the sign was anchord to the post, I would imagine ?

Here is my attempt at doing fire. I did this to try out Auto Air's candy colors. The skull was done with golden fluids. It was done on an 18"x12" piece of galvanized steel.

Nicely done great color. Check out our monthly challenge thread no one has done the fire yet maybe ou would like to give it a shot and show us how you do it.

Thanks Sam.

I saw that thread, and am planning on doing one. I was actually thinking of trying the fire, but all I have here at the moment to paint on is a piece of gesso board I got to try out. However, that's somewhat textured so I thought one of the others might look better on it.

No problem whatever you want to do is great. Again like the fire and skull here.

There are some great pictures here but no-one has actually done a step by step, it would help out a great deal.

Hasey · #58 06-20-2009, 03:49 PM

Here is one of my attempts, still very much learning.

Here is some fire I have done. I just starded Airbrushing about six months ago, so be kind please. The first one is a LAN box computer case for a friend at work. The other, is my brothers mock-up fender for his chopper thats for practice.
