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

I was thinking about doing someting like this with like landscape or some mountains. How well does the ink stay in the rain?
I'd hate to put all that work in to something and it runs.

NO LIE.
If you make the shoes for me.. and I'll even throw in the original amount the plain white shoes cost.
Man oh man.

I am pretty serious.. but my price is really outrageous.. If you can cut me a deal, that would be pretty cool? I'm extremely poor.. but maybe if you keep me in mind whenever you decide to actually make another pair in my size? Just tell me when you'd like to make another pair. :3 I'll stick with the price I stated and that way I can come up with the money. <3

I used pliers to get part of an end up, and then the best way to get it off is to just use your fingers and go little bit by bit.
