So here we have another mini lst body. I find them a little bit more difficult to paint than other 1/18 scale bodies. I think it's because I can really get a good angle with my airbrush. Either way I was going to do an all chrome body with blue flames but I noticed that I had a bottle of Faskolor Chrome; not to be mistaken for Spaz Stix Mirror chrome. The two are quite different. Mirror chrome is like a mirror with a really good reflective quality while Faskolor chrome is more like Silver and glitter. My pics do not do this body justice.

The blue is also Faskolor Metalic Blue (more like a midnight color), and it was backed with light sky blue and faswhite.

Many of you are probably wondering why I post so many pics, and the reason is this: When I first came to the painting forum I wanted to look up paint designs not chats. And when I did find a design I liked the person who posted it would only put one image up. So as a result I place multiple pictures on this thread and others so that others can have an idea on how the design looks all around.

Thanks guys! Blue flames like this are pretty fun and look much better than the typical red ones :)

Overall, I really like the design. The flames are of a rather uncommon style and look great in blue. Your pinstripes really set off the flames, but I feel your pain in the consistency department (especially on a mini body). Your shadows have a great shape to them, but they're a touch too heavy for my taste. Thin them down so it takes 3 or 4 layers before they're even noticeable and work from there. That'll really make things stand out the way you're after.
