Description This is the part for painting my shoes.
The word thousand sunny was supposed to be there but I got lazy and decided to change it, and I can't really design the words as well   
I was supposed to line the art with a sharpie but my sharpie was not suited for it, so I used a copic marker with brush.    
I just hope that if it rains.. The ink wouldn't run off and ruin my work.. (- -)||.. I probably will go find a sharpie brush pen to go over it again.. ehh.. It would take some time anyway (= ..
It was fun to paint as well, but it got tricky trying to add some shadings, as black kinda.. ruins the colour I mixed out   
But the best part for DIY-ing your own shoes is that. its freaking unique. Nobody would have the same shoes as you, unless they painted it exactly the same, which I doubt it would be the same exactly anyway. But hey. Its unique.
and.. I own it. Muahaha   


================================
Materials used:
- H&M bought shoes, white.
- Acrylic Paint
- Martha Stewart Crafts Fabric Medium (This is to help soften the paint when it dries when it is being painted on a fabric, so your fabric would not get so stiff like some hard piece of cardboard, it would be freaking uncomforatble when wearing (> >)" )
- Images from zerochan.net

it would range from about $40 to $60 usd?
but it also depends on the shoes that you wish to get..
simple plain shoes like in the picture would be about 15USD?

then the rest would be on the service and the postal fee.
of course the postal fee would be registered and have a tracking number so that you could track the parcel..

it might seems expensive, but 1/3 or half of the money would be to purchase the shoes..
but i would have to ask you to put a deposit first so that I could purchase the shoes that you want and then I would be able to start painting on it ^^

but for more info I think posted a journal on shoe comission before on my dA, so you can check it out if I missed anything here 
take your time to decide xD i know the pains of wanting this and that, but the budget on our wallet doesn't allow us to get both
