I need a picture!
Sorry, I searched all around, but could only find these pictures.
I need a good picture (of the whole truck) And an opinion. What would you think about Black and White flames of the same design?

I'm diggin' it!
EXCEPT. . .That truck looks cool as hell to me - right up until the whack-*** blue grilles. White, Semi-gloss Black, or chrome would look more appealing I think.
But that's just my opinion.
Some guys that do two-color flame jobs usually use a third highlight color around the flames. Is that something you are gonna do, too? The reason I asked is because I saw an S-10 that had a black and gold flame job with a very thin tomato-red outline around the flames and WOW. Totally brought the scheme to life.

Picking Colors
This is the pain in my a$$ I have been trying to deal with!
I really like this design, or the traditional ghost flames from the front to about mid- bed(right after side steps) And then same sort of design carried on the hard cover. Or Maybe a mixture of both? This design in ghost flames?
Then come the colors. White/(pearl) and BLack flames, with Silver(or True Blue) outlining. Or for more bold looks, True Blue and BLack Flames w/ pearl outlining.
Or, back to the traditional ghost flames, maybe a pearl color. Or True Blue flames. Or (I really like the Midnight Blue on the Camaros/Vettes).
p.s. This is just for planning ahead, just a little day dream (at 3:30 am). But I know a REAL good Custom painter, and the Lightning above is from around my area, so I could always track the owner down and go to his painter.
Edit: I just found a few more pictures, but I KNOW there are better higher quality pics of this thing out there!

I'd need more time to come up with a possitive attitude towards the thing. Think the flame job is rather excessive with it being allll over the truck, and everwhere. Looks like sperm travelling down the side of the truck.
It does look catching. But I personally think the one guy here who photoshpped blue/purple/white lightning bolts over the entire black 'L' looks wayyyy better than this. Just my opinion.

I would have liked it better if the flames stopped over the front wheel wells with just the white flames that looks good. But i dont like the side where the white flames look kinda like sperm
. Also think that he went way over the top with the interior just to much flames. I think that it would have looked better with less flames and no sperm flames on the doors. But the best part is that blue that blue should have been the blue they did the lightning in.
