Description ***IMPORTANT***
If you seen my shoes posted elsewhere, PLEASE notify me. Stealing my work will make me very, very angry. If you are inspired by my shoes, and have asked to use my ideas, that's okay. I do not permit directly trying to copy my ideas, or making them completely the same. NOT COOL PEOPLE.

----->FULL VIEW! -- Or you'll be missing out! ;D <-----

SHOE #1 -- FINISHED! -- Yes, this is only one shoe hehe. [Left shoe.]

Shoe #2 -- FINISHED!! :: [link]

BOTH SHOES :: [link]

These converse first started out totally white, and the main objective with them was to eliminate all white areas on the shoes. I think for the first shoe, I accomplished that pretty well hehe.

Done completely with sharpies, and a hell of a lot of time and patience.
Multiple words/lyrics/sayings are scattered throughout my shoes. And I tried to make them as colorful as possible. :]]

Hope you enjoy them!!!


WOW!
I can't believe how many freaking views/faves/comments this has received!
I have seriously enjoyed reading EVERY comment that has been written, and I will continue to try to respond to them all hehe.
As for all the faves, I appreciate it SO MUCH.

I've decided to add a FAQ just because I've gotten about a million of the exact same questions, so hopefully this helps.

FAQ:
Q: How did you get the markers to not bleed? Did you spray them first or something?
A: I didn't spray them at first with anything. There is really no technique to the blending, I honestly just colored. I did have some bleeding though, I simply covered it up with the outlines/borders. :]

Q: What size sharpies did you use?
A: I used mostly the regular sized ones, along with the fine tip and in a few areas the chisel tip ones.

Q: What colors were these at first?
A: White.

Q: How did you get the converse emblem thing off? [The circle with the star that says converse.]
A: I took some pliers, and tore it off. Once you get the edges going, I would highly recommend using your hands to get the rest off.

Q: Did you spray these with anything? Sealers, waterproofers, etc?
A: I sprayed them with like, a Prismacolor finish thing, I don't think it really did anything to them though haha.

Q: Will you sell me these?
A: No. :]

Q: Do you do commissions?
A: No, I dislike commissions, a lot. Haha I'm too nervous the buyer won't like what I make. Buuuuut, if I do make another pair [Which I am], they will be for sale.

Q: What happens when they get wet?
A: I don't know, I haven't worn them in the rain or snow or anything.

Try to read this before you ask anything else. xD

So what did you do to practice using the sharpies? They're blended together really well. I'm going to start a project like this soon, the cons I had finally got a hole in the sole so I'm finally getting new ones. (After about two years of the same shoes) Any tips would be great. (: (Yes, I read the FAQ)

KalieMONSTER In reply to CandyRaverKid [2010-10-25 00:41:37 +0000 UTC]

I actually didn't do anything, I didn't draw out any of the designs, I just went at it. There was no actual technique to do the blending, other than just, well, lol blending! XD Worked best of course if you did it kinda quick so the ink was still wet, but if you colored too much to saturate the canvas, it would bleed really badly. The first couple spots I did, bled badly, but I was able to cover it up well, so you can't even tell where that is. :]

I'm actually not sure, I got an offer on these ones for $250, but I still couldn't part with them. I actuaaaaaally started another pair a while ago, but then ended up putting them away and just haven't worked on them. x3
