Ok, the flames. pretty simple really. I wish I would have had these same flame decals with silver or gold as the base color of the flame. The decals I had were yellow outlined in black. So after painting the car red, I cut and fitted flame decals and applied them. Then after drying used candy apple red through an air brush. Couple of very light coats. The clear coat will help bring the colors back out so its easy to go too much candy. Have done this on a couple other models with actually better results. The color of the flames and your candy color must be somewhat compatible. Its easy to bury the flames turning them more "ghost".
Thanks guys. Drew
