The flames are way too small and close together. The colors they used are ugly, too.

Yes, it takes talent to do that, but there is a HUGE difference in having TALENT to produce something and having TASTE to know when to stop!!

This guy has the first but lacks the second.

The front looks like marble its too close together.

Actually, if you compare it to some of the true fire talent on this board, it really isnt that good of a job.

It looks like the painter tried really hard to do the true fire effect but failed miserably. I don't like it. It looks too much like a last minute decision and wasn't planned very well. Just my opinion.

You can tell a LOT of time and effort went into it, but it just isn't my tatse. I agree that there is nothing wrong with the colors, it's just way too loud that's all.
