Looks interesting Dirk but it looks like to much red(red a weak flame?) to me atleast in the flame.The last two pics are the most convincing me thinks.
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. The smoke and flame was created by using a product called great stuff. If you've ever used this stuff before you know its not easy to use. when squirted it spreads like locust. What I did was using an old 1 x 6 board as a table (don't use anything you would keep) I started a controlled squirt and dragged the can back till it trailed off. I then let it sit over night. Once dry they pop right off the board with little pressure. I made several trails so I had some to choose from and play with should I screw one up. Do yourself a favor. If you use this product DON'T get it on your hands. its a bitch to get off. Also usually this is a one shot deal. 9 out of 10 times the nozzle clogs and the can is garbage after that.



here were the test trails I made. I now have several in a shoe box in case I ever need any again. Once I found the one I liked I cut and carved it until it fit the way I wanted it. Then painted it.
