Looking good...

When you paint the fireboxes like that, you may want to consider a larger number of thinner coats of paint, rather than a few thicker ones...  Gets kind of a gloopy look....

Or not..

your choice!  

Looks good so far!

That is a vast improvement on what you had to start with.  
Sandman
