/fa/ - Fashion

And here them prior to this. (Don't have the other picture. Pls ignore shoe collection it's irrelevant. I used my old dirty white ones.

>>7179586
i liked them the way they were, honestly
very mark renton-y
they look pretty good though, you got any post wear pics?

>>7179586
Good job mate

need more after pics

>>7179572
they look like they're covered in semen. Nice work.

lol u supposed to do it to a coloured pair what a waste

>>7179597
well theyre basically on their last leg so ima buy canvas white ones soon enough so i thought I'd be experimental and see the best way to do it.

>>7179627
semens a lil more like, see through? i mean I jerk of enough to know

>>7179654
as i said, i was experimenting wiht my old white ones, considering theyre on their last leg, eventually ill do it to a colored pair homie

>>7179654

yeah, OP. the cracks in the white paint are supposed to reveal colors other than white. What would be the point otherwise?

>white paint
>white cracks
>no changes in colour

>>7179664
Cos the paint looks mad as, that's why. My pair are beginning to crack but I'm tempted to repaint it again for the clean look.

>>7179664
Post successful versions of this?

>>7179664
>yeah, OP. the cracks in the white paint are supposed to reveal colors other than white. What would be the point otherwise?


theyre nearly brown from so much wear, as i said, I'm just doin this out of experimentation and because i would think /fa/ would really like to see how it would wear in because it's a pretty hot topic, least from what ive seen. it will reveal a difference from cracking, the white from the paint compared to the current color of my shoes, is very different.

>>7179673
they do look very fucking clean, i thought it looked rly awesome when i was finished.

Here's some more pics. You can see the difference in color

And this one

>>7179708
makes me want to make conversedrips

>>7179572
what paint did you use

>>7179745
i think finishing paint? its been put away now, but it was pure white and meant for ya know, like walls and shit

did you paint it on by hand, or dip them with something inside to keep paint out of the interior?

there was a thread on this a few weeks back and said the best way to go about this was watering down gesso and applying like 3 layers. all the finished products looked p nice

>>7179756
You should've used rubber paint, like Plasti-Dip. This is a cheap DIY approach to drips. Check out:
>http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip

This makes a layer of rubber--the very same kind used in tool handles. You should try this out with another pair. I'm making my own black drips.

>>7179767
i used a small paint brush to apply the paint, and used the corner of it to get the small places that ive missed, and used a stick to puke through the eye lets when paint clogged those up.

>>7179785
alright thank you, trying this right now.
what did you use to make yourself puke?

>>7179839
poke* haha, i used a stick to make sure the eyelets were not enclosed with paint.

>>7179572
Should I plasti dip these and do some patchwork on the suede?

I need to find some good patches with some graphics on them. I could also make stencils.

>>7179778

it peels off after a few wears

>>7179708
should have used acrylic mixed with matte finish or something- in ur op pic it looks like you used house paint which will most likely have a glossy finish

>>7179778
plastidip isn't really the right thing for drips, you need liquid rubber or something.

>>7179946
these totally hectic bro are these mmm or just standard connies? Because they look damn good, paint or otherwise

>>7179898
those look like hooves holy shit

>>7180073

>>7179946
im ok with that, i will post pics or start a new thread when it's dry.

>>7180090
