Flathead Harley Flame Paint Job

This is my newest paint job, traditional blue tipped flames over black with gloss clear coat. This was my first attempt at matching flames on tank and fender. Excited as I was to do this job, it had some times of immense frustration for me. I definitely learned a lot from this job in which, now looking back I am very grateful for! Here are a few progress pictures of the job along the way. I did do this job twice over completely so some of the photos you may notice are different, but the end result is all that matters to me...you get an idea of the process anyhow. Pinstripes done by Pinstripin' Mikey. The mock up photo I nabbed from a forum the owner belongs to I hope he doesn't mind :)
