Default Corvette goes up in flames

So my buddy stops by this weekend to say hi and get a carb I had sitting around for his MOPAR. In payment for the carb he offers to do a flame job on my Vette hood. Here are the results. House of Color paint and clear coat.

My heart sank when I thought it was your vette that literally caught fire .

Looks pretty good, you have a pic of more of the whole car?

Looks good. You should put up a picture of your whole car like he said, though. Would like to see it.

Yeah, I didn't notice that. For some reason, when I looked at the pics of the hood, I thought it looked like a 60's model.

Thanks Y'all. He said he was tired of doing Harley tins and wanted to do something a little bigger. Originally I told him old school flames ghost flames. He just looked at me and said. "Nope". I guess something can be said for artisan latitude.
