Hi All, I'm doing this skin for a mate, he's after it for a forum he runs. He wanted red/black/white and flames. I think I've finished but not 100% sure, I usually know. What do you think?

i like how you brought the white portion straight up into the a pillar. all i would do is make the flames more pointy, the ends look too round for me. but either way slick design.

Nice design. I agree with more 'pointy' flames (they look too friendly with rounded tips). Itd be killer if you could do white flames as well, but I realize that would run too far into the door panel/logos, so thats probably not an option.

I'll third the comments about the flames. Make it look a little more sinister Like Mike, I also love how you've brought the white up the A pillar and faded it out into the red. Top notch Aside from that, maybe a number?

Sorry to have to be the voice of dissent here, but I think the flames should stay as they are. My overall impression is of a smooth, curvy, swoopy [hell are those even words? ] skin. Even the font choice and decals don't have many sharp points. Thus in the context of the overall image, the flames are they are work very well. I think that making them pointy would contradict the rest of the concept introducing dissonance to what at the moment appears to be harmonious and quite nicely balanced.

Thank you Smax. Jut for comparison, here's the pointy flames. I don't know which I like better now. Please note that I've changed the shape of some of the flames also. Thanks for the help fellas

It's plain that you shouldn't listen to me - I talk all sorts of balls. Having said that I still think it's soft flames FTW

I'd already done some pointy flames on another layer before your post Your input is definitely appreciated!

I gotta say, that as much as I admire Smax's work, I like the pointy flames best.

Rofl...stop being so polite and just tell me to STFU Trust me it won't be a new experience and I don't bite - well at least not hard enough to leave you without something which you may find useful.
