I see 3 colors for the flames. Orange, red, and maroon. You'd probably have to dab the orange on and drag it up with a striper brush and cure, then repeat for the red and maroon for the exact same effect, or line the colors up horizontally and use the striper brush to drag up then cure, but that would result in the colors touching.

Do you have a Gelish white that you could burnish a yellow additive into? xx

ive done this with gel before. 3 horizontal stripes, yellow orange red, and before you cure, drag a cocktail stick through them to create flames, then cure :biggrin:.

Doesn't Gelish have a yellow in the Neon collection?
 
I'd put on each colour individually in a curv shape, moisten my brush and drag upwards - cure. Repeat with all colours?
 
Not the same as what you posted at all but had fun doing it anyway lol :p looks nicer in person

I think I'd probably do the yellow first, either burnished additive or colour coat When it came to doing the flames, I'd decant a bit of the colours I'd want to use, and using a long striping brush, I'd pull through the colour and drag on the nail in curved flame shapes. Some stripes I'd allow a thicker coverage, others I'd drag to create that sparse look.
 
Gelish Copo Cabana Banana. And Just Gel makes a great yellow - Solar Rays
