Hay It looks really good. If you are worryed about getting the flames the same put them on butcher paper and lay it out on the truck and chaulk them and the tape. you can have the same on both sides. my .02$ any way. Keep up the good work.

He used a Rattle can. It's mildly raised but we can't sand it and clear coat it cause of the suede paint. It looks good!

Cool! Reminds me of the flames my brother and I did on my Nova a few months ago. The whole car is Kolor by Krylon. It turned out pretty good, but for some reason my digital camera has trouble taking a decent picture of them.

OH MAN!!! those flames look sweet on that Nova!!
Thanks for all the great comments guys. I'm hoping to get the flames all finished on the weekend. I'm now working on getting it road worthy so it can be driven to the exhaust shop on Thursday

I taped it all off, shot 3 light coats of yellow that were 10 minutes between coating, then after it set up for about 15 minutes, I shot the orange and it all kinda flowed together. There are some spopts on it that I'm not crazy about, but what the hell!!! this truck is my learning curve. This truck was so far gone when I bought it that it looks like a show truck compared to what it used to be like I just wanted a cool looking, nice running, loud summer cruiser
