  9. Jim......thank you for your observation about the faded black around the flames..........you beat me to the punch........I was going to mention that I tapped off the flames and airbrushed the faded black area around the flames with the same color as the truck in my next post........so that everything blends together.............I do this method when I have custom decals.........I have a 1/8 inch black border around every decal that goes over the black body........so that I can do this method.......thanks.
