Lyle Willits' custom 1940 Ford Standard
(click the image to go back)
Lyle painted the "feather flames" by hand,
using a technique similar to the one he uses to produce
his realistic-looking woodgrain effects. Using just orange,
yellow and white poly-scale paints, Lyle laid the flames
over a Duplicolor Medium blue metallic base paint. He
topped everything off with several coats of polished Duplicolor
Clear.
