i like the look of the white - to yellow - to red flames. they look good on a black truck. but i think you should bring the white all the way over the bumber and the rest of the flames onto the doors. i know there not "true flames" but check out 1fine99 http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2043026 he was featured in TRUCKIN and i think the flames look sweet.

i hope you didnt pay anything for that rendering. realfire would look great on your black truck, but thats not real fire in the picture.

and the truck in the cardomain link is nice, but the flames have no depth, highlights, shadows or pinstriping. its just paint gun faded 3 color easy stuff.

Anything done by Mark Lavalle will look badass.......I'd just let him go at at and see what kind of masterpiece he comes up with

Thanks again for all the replies guys! This really helps!

In the final renderring he is doing to clean this up will have more flames that will look just like the paint will on the hood, over the headlights, on the fenders (coming from the vents in them), from the rocker panels, over the roof and onto the tonneau cover and on the srt 10 wing. I know this renderring is only a little of that but keep in mind this is only a 15 minute job to see if I liked it. The artist is continuing with the comments I made, his ideas and he will hear what you guys have posted.

I agree that the entire grill shell should be white (or yellow/orange). I'm going to have him swap the white to tyello wand orange to see what it looks like. I like the white, sorta white hot with the flames coming off of it and "blowing out" as it moves down the truck. Sorta puts the truck in motion while still. (if you know what i mean).

I've already sold the wheels that are on it in the pics and will have my new wheels by June. I talekd to KMC last week and the SS (black with stainless polished lip) are due out June. They look great and I think they will set off the truck with this paint design.

Any more ideas? Please let me know.
Thanks

(I didnt pay anything for the renderring in the photo. The true fire flames were skewed to get the coverage of the truck. As I said above this was a quick 15 minute job to get a general idea of what it would look like. But agtain the flames used on this renderring were the true fire from the Camaro Mike Lavalle did. It will look like the true fire flame once the final renderring is done.)

Colt~ That looks killer. If anything I would have him continue the flames with a few, small licks down the side of the truck. That is the nicest Ram I have ever seen.

I like the way that looks. I like the idea of the white on the front but it'd look better if it was shadowed a little with some light gray so it'd look like smoke coming off the grille.
