I don't really dig flames. However the job there is nice but I think the color sucks. The purple has to go.

That flame job is too busy, ghost flames would look good.

i've seen that car in person, and it was sweet.
the guy that owned it sold it, and now has a pretty sweet orange ta. he goes by 'tang ta' on efa. or something like that.

Thumbs down on that one.

Flames CAN be cool, if they are done right. Unfortunately most of the cars I've seen with 'em are overdone.

Definitely overdone - get rid of the purple outlines everywhere, and maybe even extend the main ones instead of having seperate ones from the wheels.

The general idea is nice though, and actually gives me a good idea of how flames look on an SS hood, as well as how to make 'em look good - I'm planning on going with blue ghost-ish flames on black with the ACSD SS hood...
