This book has pretty much everything you would want to know about flame jobs. It covers several different types of flame jobs from the traditional flames of the 50s/60s to todays realistic flames. It also shows various techniques that can be used from freehand to masking and everything in between.

All the text and pictures are clear and easy to understand. The chapters are color coded. If you want to look up a specific type of flame job you just have to look at the back cover, find what you want, and flip to the corresponding color. It's a great time saving feature.

This is THE book about flames. Don't pass it up!

This is a very inspirational book! great tutorials and very nice information about some general fields in custom painting. If you feel you like some flame works, you'll find this book leads you to flame almost anything around you... BEWARE! maybe you never stop!

I suggest to read this book together with "How to paint your car" also from Motorbooks, this one first because maybe you'd like to start with some nice graphics before putting yourself on a whole car painting job.

The best instructional book I have ever read regarding Flame design, inspiration and how-to. It covers every aspect there is in the world of flamework; from traditional flames,wall-of-flames,realistic and ghost flames. Not only does it give you an in-sight into the world of creativity but gives a step-by-step guide to all products used and why they are used. In a nutshell, if you are considering the thought of customising Mom's shopping wagon, this book is for you!!!

This is a very nice book. It has great photos and good instructions on 'how to'.
I would recommend this book to any one considering a flame job.
The only problem would be deciding on which type of flames to paint!
