Spitfire Update!

OK The artist is finally ready to start on the flames tonight. Car has been completely sanded down! and Re-primed and painted! Also already has two coates of clear, and then sanded off the glossy bits. After the art work is done, we plan on about four more coates of Clear! I think this time it will be perfect!

No, The flames will go all the way back to the rear quarter panel this time, and yes, I shaved the door handles. No not the same flames this time, a little less this time. Only one snake this time on the hood, buit it promisses to be better than the last time!

I think it looks great, those flames are some of the best I have seen, can't wait to see it finished.

That thing really looks like its on fire.

Someone run to get a fire extinguisher and put that thing out.

msmap · 03-20-2006, 01:17 PM

Yup, those flames look real! And the snake looks wicked, it is looking good
