Now you've got me wanting to flame my Craftsman tractor... if you use rattle cans, I'm guessing you mask off everything except the flame and blend colours towards the tip of the flame, or does it matter which way you go? Obviously I've never done this...

Start with the lighter color and work to the dark at tips. Add a little dark at base of each flame. Watch this video it shows so much better than I can explain.

Start looking for a chrome plating shop, exhaust, grille protector, rims, the list can go on. and on. lol.:thumbsup: Looks great. I'm looking for the right pinup girl for the old Allis Hood and side panels.

Pinup Stickers, Stickers, Girls and Pinup Art at Sticker Chick for the stickers; but they are not UV resistant. I hear a spray on product called Frog Juice will make them UV resistant.

To the O.P., I'm not a flames fan; but I sure like what you did on your BX...subtle, and yet visible. Great work.
