Default Flame Search- Bagger Flames

Hey,
I've seen a lot of flames in the last 6 months but having a hard time telling my painter how I want it layed out.

Would you post some pics of your favorite flamed bagger paint jobs (especially if they are your own!) so I can show him what to lay out on the bags and side covers? Pic below is of a Forum Member's flames that I love (thanks) and I cant remember his handle...

Thanks!

Here is a link to my painter. He has over 250 pics. Traditional flames, real fire, and lots of other stuff. Hopefully you can find something on here that your thinking of.

I see you are from St. Charles Co. Missouri. I have a good friend who lives in the Chesterfield area that has 4 bikes. Hell, you might know him. He rides all the time. My painter is in West Frankfort, IL. Thats not too awful far from you and he is REAL reasonable on price. PM me and we'll see if you know my buddy.

Not a bagger, something to look at

Ghost flames...simpler the better IMO

You've really got to like flames to go for mine. But I love em. I've had ghost flames, and real flames, and I'm just hooked on the old 50's lookin' flames. Here you go.

Just send him pic's of what you like and ask him to give you a sample of what he has in mind on paper, then give him the ok if you like them.
the bike in white with silver flames is Q-Hog
