- Menoth White Apply a basecoat of Menoth White Base to the flames. This should ensure that the flames are the brightest area on the model—a good rule to follow when painting objects that are casting light
- Heartfire Give the whole area a wash of Heartfire.
- Ember Orange Khador Red Highlight Hotter flames appear as lighter colors, so have the colors darken from base to tip. With this in mind, paint the upper part of the flames with a mix of Ember Orange and Khador Red Highlight.
- Umbral Umber Sanguine Apply a mixture of Umbral Umber and Sanguine Base to the tips of the flames in thin, diluted layers.
- Thamar Black Add Thamar Black to the previous mixture and apply the resulting color to the extreme tips of the flame as a final layer.
