1st custom shoe update....

nearly one shoe done, one more to go, trying to decide what should be done to the rubber of the shoe might check out a few colour palettes and see what would look rad, I'm actually fairly pleased with the way that these are turning out for once.

Shoe customization....

While spending dubious amount in the library cracking on with what seemed like a mountain of research and work, I came across a little Gem called "Custom Kicks" a small pocket sized book filled with custom designs various artists and illustrators have slapped onto a pair of shoes, trainers or pumps. It gave me a massive boost of inspiration and motivated me to have a crack at it my self.

I grabbed a bunch of my trusty sharpie pens and worked away on a pair of canvas pumps i had lying around, i went at it with no real compositional ideas or even a concpet for the design i was gonna do and i just let rip.

The crack so farrrr.......
