    OK I went back to my roots. Couldn't find a good waves reference without being a god on the airbrush or painting like Hokasai (now that would be a nice idea - the great wave, but it's been done to death). Hot rod flames it is. Got the frisket out and got it done. I'm pretty happy with the results.

    cheers,
    Gav.

    Thanks Wokks. The background colour is MTN94 Bali Green. Looks more blue in the photo than it really is.

    cheers,
    Gav.

    My jaw dropped at that finish mate, you always nail flames!
    @Woks I think it's 3-way switch and master volume

    Thanks stan.
    It's a pretty simplistic approach, no airbrush skills unfortunately. It's ok for what it is.

    cheers,
    Gav.
