Well, here is my first go at it. Havent really played much with an airbrush other than reading and watching different vids. I definately have some lessons learned, and hope that by my next couple of bodies I have most of the basic flaws worked out.

SWEET.... It feels good to get the first one out of the way. I like the flames did you hand cut them?

To tell you the truth.. I have never painted a body. But I know a few tricks. The shadowing technique works really good.

In this body... although not flames.. see how he has painted black on the edge of the designs to make it have a shadow? This works really well and makes the flames stand out better.

BTW This body was painted by my homie, Hachi Roku.. awesome job dude! :D
