i got the Artline markers overseas. i dont know where they sell it in the US, but the closest equivalent here would probably be either Magnum44 or Eberhard-Faber DESiGN art marker, which is pretty severe ink as well. out of all ink-based markers the Artline smells the best and i find myself...

like i said earlier Lascaux Studio Bronze in either Steel (for darker, warmer gunmetal tone), Aluminum (for a purely neutral and light matte brushed aluminum look), and i think they have just a straight metallic silver as well. usually only takes 1 coat 2 if you're OD. its the best looking...

hhahahaha. dude i alreay told you, the Lace Locks were made somewhere in Thailand (i didnt handle production on those, thank White Room in singapore for those). the patches i made in china. just walked into a art store on the street, then 7 days later it was done... some of the highest quality...

dying suede with a black marker is awesome in particular ARTLINE 90 black permanent pens are really really effective in Suede, Nubuck, Fabric, Mesh, Nylon, RUBBER (to a certain extent, especially if you are going for an intentionally f-ed up look like i did on my chuck taylors) and PATENT...

rob i'm back in the states now about the straps. the first time i made this (you can see it on the ALPHA DUNK i did a while back) i took the strap off of a Air Trainer 1 and actually stitched and glued it onto the dunk by hand. i dont do that anymore. it isnt at all necessary. the ones you...

oh yeah. paint containers seriously. invest in some decent containers to store the paint. if you are just using angelus the bottles they come in are fine. i generally prefer a squeeze bottle, the kind that has a FLIP CAP as opposed to a SPOUT (these things get clogged very easilly). you can...

i agree the brushes definitely matter in my experience, the finest brushes available for this kind of thing (for its price) has to be Japanese made LOEW-CORNELL and ASHLEY i use 000 spotter for lines and details 1/8 angular shader for other fine details 1/8 dagger for anal-retentive micro @#%$...

i dont mess with midsoles anymore but these guys claim fault-proof dying of rubber www.parasolinc.com/Produc...=HYPAKOLOR never tried it before. and its very expensive, but it sounds good. i assume the process is a dye (penetrating or chemical) rather then a coating or layering effect. they...

if after you've gotten your basic colors of Angelus and you find that they dont perform the way you need them to... heres a short list of stuff i found that works well as far as heavy opacity goes. it took me many years to find a very solid and heavy pigmented RED PAINT. even angelus' red...

^ yeah i definitely agree with your points in this above post. also my post wasnt just answering the first kids question. i wouldnt have typed all that out for just one kid. it was a general sharing of knowledge i collected for a very long period of time and intended for whoever can benefit from...

there is no such thing as a DEFINITIVE PAINT GUIDE or CUSTOM SHOE GUIDE. just take from what everyone says and try them out yourself, then you can develop your own technique the way it suits you best. that, in its bare essense, is the definition of CUSTOM. . --- www.methamphibian.com...

Angelus paint is NOT god's gift to mankind. it is extremely good as an entry level paint especially for its price and what you get for it. if you are starting out, i would definitely recommend you use angelus off the bat because it is just convenient. however i absolutely can not agree it is...
