True Fire
by Mike Lavallee
Made from solvent proof polymer, these templates can be cleaned with solvents and are easily flexed or curved around irregular shaped surfaces without fear of damaging them.
These freehand airbrush templates are designed by Mike Lavallee and laser cut by Artool.
After airbrushing with the Artool Freehand Templates™ (FH-1, FH-2, FH-6, FH-7 and the Radu Vero Master Series) to render fire on hotrods and motorcycles, Mike Lavallee decided to work with Artool™ to create a unique set of templates for realistic flames: TRUE FIRE™. He designed these templates to help create his TRUE FIRE™ effect. With an art knife, simply cut the tiny connecting tabs on each TRUE FIRE™ template to reveal 18 positive/negative shapes and you are ready to go to work.
This set of 9 shields includes 3 sizes of each of the following:
- Diablo - This template is perfect for doing tight fire licks, and for flames that look like they are moving blazing fast.
- Wild Fire - This template works well for creating softer arcs, and more streamlined edges for the longer, slower burning fire. Also included are some smaller flame-lick shapes, as well as some burning ember configurations.
- Inferno - This template includes similar shapes from Diablo and Wild Fire, but includes some added extras which allows you to create even more burning ember effects!
Also included is the instructional Artool TRUE FIRE™ Template Intro DVD by Mike Lavallee. On this DVD, Mike shares the tips and tricks on how to create your own realistic fiery effects.
Mike Lavallee is setting the custom paint world on fire with his TRUE FIRE™ effect. Mike has created and perfected the technique for rendering dramatic realistic interpretations of actual fire burning down the surface of motorcycles, automobiles, boats and aircraft. Mike Lavallee has appeared on television programs, "Monster Garage", "Overhaulin'" and "Rides".
