Custom Ladybug Shoes
This is my second pair of custom shoes. My first pair were for my NZ Beats website. This time I decided to do a pair of girls shoes. I think they turned out pretty good, but there is something missing. I think there needs to be more detail in the eyes or head but I don’t know what. I’m also not sure if I should leave the tongue (shoe) white or try to put the ladybug wings on there. Don’t really know how to draw ladybug wings anyway. I also need to decide what colour laces would suit it the best. Any ideas?
Very nice work there!
I wouldn’t worry about wings, as the (black?) laces will probably give that effect when tied up.
The only thing that I can think of that’s missing is some antenna to make them look more buggy, but that might look weird on the shoes!
Yeah I was thinking that maybe I should have made the head a little smaller and had grass infront. Then I could have added antenna.
Ki! I don’t think you should waste your time BUYING custom shoes, I think you should make your own! It’s super easy.
And I know you have drawing talent, all you need is the shoes and the paint (Spotlight!)
I’ve created my own custom chucks from Shen’s bubble bobble painting (which was super easy). You can see ‘em here – http://www.flickr.com/photos/kassh/3442102773/
I didn’t buy them. I made them.
