was so fun to create these customs and this video! Thanks for this opportunity, team!

[@AOD92]

Thanks 4 sharing ur knowledge with us. I'm just starting out customizing but I'm working on Mockups 1st. I don't have an ipad to get procreate but my android has an app like it called HiPaint that works like procreate. Hopefully my 1st custom sneakers will come out official like urs. 👋

[@benp6856]

Thanks for sharing these tips!!

[@quitt5371]

Hey @cassykustoms ! What fine-line brush do you use, like the one seen at 6:22 ?

[@HJartistry]

Genius! I didn’t know about the free mock ups!!! And that transfer paper one is genius! Thank youuuuu!!!

[@AOD92]

She is an amazing artist. Bringing her work on sneakers is genius on her part. Not an easy task to do.

[@artbykoa]

[@kicksbyjagger]

Ok hold uppp! Cleaning your brush during the process of applying the finisher is so smart! This video was amazing‼️

[@cassykustoms]

THANK YOU JAGGER!

[@jacoblewis4412]

Building up to your final colour by mixing in white and working in ratios especially when working over a darker base colour is one of the best tips not in this video... Love how concise this video is and I can't believe using thinner to create washes and glazes had not yet occurred to me. Thank you so much for that one...

[@GABOVERDOSE]

The 2 thin hack is golden Cassy! Will definitely add that to my art arsenal 😅

[@iamjavae658]

[@sparklegame1232]

Which site or app do you use to paint the shoes?

[@AngelusBrand]

You can download the templates here, and edit them in Photoshop or Procreate angelusdirect.com/pages/shoe-mock-up

[@vermiciousk1]

I wish I used thr trace and transfer method earlier it makes life soooo much easier than the free hand sketch .. I used to hand paint custom roller derby helmets. i used a mix of spray paint and acrylic but now I wish I knew about that buildup of coats technique too !!

[@zakifikar5162]

cakep bet mbk

[@ChaoticCreative259]

Is a top coat necessary to seal in angelus paint? Or is it just used to give a different finish

[@AngelusBrand]

No, it is mostly for the aesthetics. If you prep properly, your shoes will be fine!

[@stanfordkoch1271]

Cassy, how long after painting the shoe, do you apply the finisher?

[@AngelusBrand]

Usually we suggest 30 minutes to an hour before applying finisher. You want to make sure the paint is nice and dry first.

[@cedricd7110]

Mock-Ups link?

[@AngelusBrand]

angelusdirect.com/pages/shoe-mock-up Here you go!

[@dontbeasheep1603]

Yall didn't sand the shoes ?

[@AngelusBrand]

That's a preference really. We do recommend the more preparation the better.

[@user-po3my4kk6z]

Tia?

[@almira1382]

i am not a good painter

[@bsloow]

Sicily was a Muslim Arab/ Moors emirate for almost 300 years. The culture, language, food, and the people are a big mixture and has deep foundation in this. Its technically wrong, lazy and extremely superficial to call Sicilians or Sardinians “white”.

[@jeffryjacob8592]

Myyyy GAWD!!! 🫠 This was the best video I could ever watch!! Covered most of the questions I had in mind!! God bless you for sharing your knowledge with me! ❤
