Desk of the Day - Sneaker Time

Today I'm working on an illustrator drawing of some Nike Air Force 1 sneakers. I got some white ones for my birthday and have been itching to paint them for a while! I'm going to use this drawing to figure out some designs for them before I paint!

Remake & Remodel - The final design ideas part 2

You can find part 1 of my designs here. After discarding my heel designs I decided to focus on sneakers as I think eventually I'd like to go into sneaker design (Hello Nike? I promise I'll treat you good, I won't leave you for Adidas like Kanye did!).

I explored different ideas for the sole, the stitching, laces, materials etc before I settled upon my final design. My final design ended up being the bubble platform, I then had to create a 3D prototype of an element of that particular design which will be in the next post!

Remake & Remodel - Thumbnail Designs

For my Remake Remodel project I did two A3 sheets of tiny designs based on DNA & bacteria. The next stage after this is to take 6 designs and develop them, then choose the final design from those.

You can view more of my uni work here and more of this project here.

Here are my initial thumbnail designs:

Adventure Time High Tops

This was a super fun pair of shoes I did as a gift, I love doing anything Adventure Time themed! I had so much fun doing these & the Adventure Time Russian Dolls that I think I'm going to have to paint myself some Adventure Time themed converse.

If you'd like your own pair of custom shoes check out my Etsy Shop or email me at ponychopsshop @ gmail . com

Justin Bieber Sneakers

A few weeks ago I got contacted by the wonderful Phoebe Dykstra from the Canadian music show New music live.
Phoebe asked me to paint her two pairs of shoes, this is the first pair; Justin Bieber themed sneakers. Phoebe is going to be wearing these next time she interviews Justin. I can't lie, the little girl inside me is very excited about Justin Bieber seeing these shoes!

Mauri Kiwi low tops!

The lighting has been pretty awful again today, so no pictures of the brogues yet :( boo hoo.  I seriously need a light box!!!

I managed to snap a couple of a custom order during a random burst of light.
