Ok guys because of the lack of work like most of us are suffering from I been thinking about trying my hand at real flames , But it seems that every video Ive seen uses uses premixed solvent based candies so my question is this has anybody here tried it with envirobase yet ? And if so what tints are you guys using to to make your base and candy colors , I just figure someone here has already done it and can probally save me from dumping out a lot of paint LOL. Sierra Ive seen your flames and there awesome so are you mixin your own colors and are ya using solvent still

There is an reasonably famous airbrush guy in ireland he has his own web site as far as i am aware he use's watrebase for all his airbrush work. I will see if i can find out the name of the web site.

I am sure i have heard my painter mention him, should be able to post a link tomorrow.

Cool thread title. Good luck, the problem I found with it is finding suitable candies, as they are one of the most important parts. I was using some auto-air about a year ago, its a waterborne paint with candies, but Im unsure if the autoair would go over the envirobase ok or not. Also, at that time, the candies were pretty tough to use, but I have heard they have come a long ways already. Now that we're on the flames convo I have to show off a sled I did for a friend last year. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t47/nosensegrafix/Sledfromtheright.jpg
