I think that they look sick. Try to get some better pics up to show the color fade.

it was a ppg paint it was called graphite. i was thinking of doing the flames like that i may go back and change them. as for the side i still may go more down the side but not much i just dont like the whole side being done. thanks for the constructive criticism.

i think flames are too cliche and look much nicer w/o. only thing that matters is that you like it.
