This video is very helpful, i know how to draw but honestly i am very confused with painting part, those colors are hard for me replicate. Please can you help me with that?

[@mickkianderson6426]

I use alcohol inks in my airbrush to do shoes but he recently I’ve been wanting to try paints but just not sure what type of paint that I need can you help me with that

[@customcreationsbyjmart]

[@curazy6156]

Well my first pair were Nike slides I just painted them like 5 times but 1st af1s I made them as crazy as I could think of rit dyed 1 put them on my channel

[@CallM3Cali]

These are all super cool ideas and I've done some of them too! I was wondering how to find your own style, inspiration?🎨🎭

[@sahdirellis4901]

Try mixing a contemporary art style with a modern one. Look to the past for inspiration and combine it with something new. Try combining DADAISM, FUTURISM, POINTILLISM, De STIJL ( or ANY art style from the past ) with something more recent.

[@overly.chromatic]

I like to look for things in nature or my environment that bring me joy and then think about how I can translate them to the shoes. I am also inspired to create shoes that match outfits I don't have factory releases to match.

[@Misterio_PR]

I have paint a shoe whit Angelus paint for leather at leather paint but as soon i wear it the paint start coming off i used acetone to prep it before painting what can I do so the paint won't come off

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

What happened to sanding?

[@blindcustomz5560]

this week and iv started my first ever pair and i shown ppl closest to me and its safe to say im ready to give up they pissed themself laughing at me (im blind)

[@J.RReacts832]

What’s up you inspired me into Sneaker Customs thanks a lot I learned so much binge watching your content. If you guys could come check out my first custom please do stay positive vibes

[@lj7436]

ive been wondering for a while if when prepping using just angelus preparer and deglazer or acetone is enough to get the paint to stick

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

For the paint to stick sure, if you want them to be wearable though you have to sand in my opinion

[@lj7436]

@@DeJesusCustomFootwear is adhesion promoter or the scotch brite pads necessary to make them wearable
