How to Color Fire: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to blend fiery hues, add highlights, and achieve the natural movement of flames.

Materials Needed:

• Alcohol markers (yellow, orange, red, deep red, and black)

• White acrylic pen

• White Gelly Roll pen

Step 1: Base Layer with Yellow

Fill the inner parts of the flames with yellow. This will be the hottest and brightest part of the fire.

Step 3: Add Orange for Depth

Use an orange marker to color around the yellow areas, blending slightly into the yellow to create a smooth transition.

Step 4: Introduce Red for Intensity

Apply red along the outer edges of the flames, blending it into the orange. Keep the red at the flame tips and outermost areas.

Step 5: Add particles

Add some flying particle around the flame.

And that’s it!
