Thanks for the fire tip. I was using the tip on fire (section 9.d) from the following website: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/games/miniatures/painting-faq/
I guess next time, I'll follow the one you sent.
Thanks again.
The trim on the cloak looks awesome. The flaming bird is coloured backwards. There's a great tutorial here for fire theory and practice: http://hot-lead.org/advance/fire.htm
