Got this fella by adding a bit of smudge action on top of the tools that are taught in this video. Definitely going to make more of these when the kids don’t need my attention. Liking the course!

This was a fun exercise!
There are some really imaginative flame pieces here, good work all
I like the palettes for your blue flames! And your orange fire ball has real movement too it! nice work 
This was my first attempt, not 100% satisfied with it - it’ll be the basic icon, used for stoves/campfires/etc…
This was my second attempt, I like this one more and feel I could use it on the Laser Defender game course as a Spaceship Thruster…
This was my third attempt - an in-game icon for mages to select fire spells, and also for shooting said fireball…
Flames:
Fire with smoke:
Fireball:
And I attempted to do a sun:
First try with diffrent layers for the firecolors and only paintbrush . Feels like childrawn, cartoonish.
Second one used only airbrush. I like this one the most, because the fire looks as in old games and feels like it’s moving.
This fire was made with paintbrush with some corrections with airbrush.
That one was made with airbrush, while I highlighted some arms with paintbrush. I like that one because, it feels so explosive.
Blazing Inferno: 
Fire Raining Down: 
A Torch: 
A regular large fire: 
Just some fire stuff…

Tried a couple variations of a flame, first one is symmetrical / mirrored and the second one is free hand. Both were done using the pencil tool and i made the 5 color pallete from a reference photo. I think i like the second a lot more as it looks a little more realistic.
Great Job Everyone! It’s not easy making fire look like fire haha
Pretty chuffed how mine came out since I’m usually pretty useless at this free hand stuff, but that airbrush tool is a god send!

Few of my fire attemps. Still not feeling too confident.
Let me know what you think.

Small variations on the fire theme:
Plain fire
Fire with sparks
Intense fire
Fire with smoke
4th one is supposed to be a candle. Not a great execution.
This was a pretty difficult challenge, but I learned a lot from it. I almost gave up, glad I didn’t!
The first two are pretty lousy, but I learned a lot with them.
Fire 1:
