This license plate started off as a white blank. A sheet of masking was applied and the design hand-cut from the masking. The excess masking was removed, leaving the white area you see here masked off. The background was airbrushed using a layered effect with purple, blue and black paints. The masking was removed to reveal the white flames, then the shading on the flames and shadows under the flames were added with an airbrush. The entire design was then clearcoated for durability, and the black outlines added by hand with a pinstriping brush.
