For my phoenix ll bust with the clear yellow resin. I cleaned it up, got off all finger prints / oils etc...
Then i coated it all in Tamiya clear yellow. Then i hit it with some clear orange and then clear red to get that flame effect.
Can do the same with solid colors. Solid is a bit easier cause if you mess up, can just recoat it over etc... Clear resins i suggest you take your time and make sure you plan your attack!!!!!

Definitely build in layers. Also, remember that fire is brightest at its source, so anything close to the point of origin should be almost white hot.
Mike Lavalle does some incredible flame effects that can be converted to kit/statue work. Check out his gallery: http://www.killerpaint.com/gallery.html I used his techniques on the Balrog in AFM 37.
