Flame paint jobs have been around for decades, adorning everything from hot rods, motorcycles and pickups, to tool boxes and refrigerators. Flames are a great way to make a beautiful, personalised statement with an air gun and paintbrush. However, the styles and techniques involved in painting flames are constantly evolving, and in this newly revised edition of How to Paint Flames you’ll discover all the latest tips and tricks to create every flame style imaginable. Author Bruce Caldwell, with the help of some of the best painters in the business, leads you through every step in the flame painting process. At the same time, the book provides inspiration to help you determine which style is best for your project. You’ll learn how to create traditional flames as well as variations such as tribal flames, ghost flames, pinstripe flames and those incredible-looking realistic flames. There’s also a new chapter detailing the styles and techniques for cool-looking scallops.
