Thread: Who wants to follow along w/ my flame job?

Tweet

Mine are over the louvers also. Yours is gonna look great when done.

I visited the shop today & Dennis has changed almost everything. Some are subtile- some are different- especially along the bottom of hood at latches.
He's going to make a few changes in the door area tomorrow morning & then begin the transfer to the driver side. I meet him tomorrow at 10am for the changes & approval. I'll upload the new pics when I get home from work (yep, still working).

Great thread! What a way to show off your finished rod! I'm a fan of solid yellow, flaming back, because it looks like a ball of fire up front. If I had the cash or the talent I'd paint my truck black with yellow flames coming back from the hood! I look foward to your progress.

Ok- round 2

Met w/ Ryan @ SoCal this morning to see what Dennis got done yesterday after I left.
Turns out he changed alot! He's finished off the bottom of hood area around the headlight & changed several of the licks & moved a few around. Doesn't look like too much change until you look at the pics side by side. I want to make a few minor changes in the door & will Meet Dennis at 10am to iron those out. Friday he will transfer to the other side & shoot several test panels for me on monday.


Here you can see some of the changes. He's looping the flame around the 34 headlight & added a lick between the latches. He also moved the teardrop & changed several of the lower licks so it flows all the way down the car.




Here I got on a stool to shoot the pic so you can see the overall design.




Close up from the front. He changed the line at edge of insert & moved the flame lick at top of shell.




Here you can see where I've applied a piece of tape on door where I want Dennis to look at. I want the flame gap to more resemble the ones at the bottom of door. There's a few others that will need a small tweak & I'll go over that tomorrow.

I love this job.

I once saw a flame job using "happy faces" in San Antonio and have been looking for it ever since. Flame jobs that push the box are incredible!

Thanks. I'm very pleased with how this set came out.
