The color combo was a customers request..."I'd like a candy red to black fade with realistic flames, not necessarily true fire but similar."

I like it alot, I think you should make the flames go farther back on the hood and body though. Smile

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 10-04-2006

well i think the shapes of the flames they have a good shape to them, I think the colors really limited you on this one

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Obsessive R/C - 10-04-2006

The flames were really giving me trouble on this one. I bought House of Kolor kandies and they didn't give me the look I thought they would. the Red background kinda killed the effect, lost alot of the depth IMO

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Racin' Ranger1 - 10-04-2006

looks nice still

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Toughtrax - 10-04-2006

Colors look good I do agree that the red background took away from the affects of the fire a bit. Also I looks to me that there is to much yellow or that its just to bright, where it almost needed to blend in more with the orange

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - snakebite46 - 10-04-2006

I like it alot. I think anymore flames or them further up the body would look like overkill maybe.

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - rocco79 - 10-04-2006

I think they look good... Maybe alittle to dark . But high quality work

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Tex - 10-05-2006

I honestly think it's just what the customer asked for. They look great IMO

I like how the flames are just starting to really burn up front, it makes it look like it's making a re-entry into the atmosphere....

Thanks guys, I hope he is happy with them. Sounds like alot of good feedback, I'm feeling a little better about it now.

Jerry, you asked for our opinions, so there's no negative criticism here.....

I personally like the "less is more" on the flames. Too much of that looks is not for me.

If these were mine I would preferred to see more red to black fade on the sides, so the flames didn't reach the black area.

I like the one with an all black roof better than the red-black faded roof. Looks cleaner.

Photos with flash fool us, but it looks like the front fades from orange to dark red? I like that fade. And, is just the roll hoop chrome?

Overall, very nice, clean jobs that should look great with lighter decals and white or chrome wheels.

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Tex - 10-05-2006

who are they for Jerry?

Obsessed F/X, custom paint - Obsessive R/C - 10-06-2006

The flash is decieving...they both fade from candy red to black and the roof is where they blend out (one is slightly darker than the other) I wanted the black to stop a little sooner, but that's the trouble with fades...common colors are more controllable, like orange to yellow, blue to purple, etc. Using red to black isn't really and ideal mix. The roll bars are chrome, and there are two different oranges used on the front, intermixed in the flames, but the red kinda washed out the effect.

Tex...they are for a guy on Truggyracers from CT (another Tazer owner Big Grin

)

This one is for sale.

I'm still working on the effect trying to get the colors just right. What looks yellow turns orange, but when you do alot of red it also seems to want to turn orange. The black really overpowers the red and it disappears...the blue tinted overspray mask doesn't help the situation either.
