^i think most ppl use prisma markers and colour pencils. u should be able to get them at any art store

 

[mhsrunner09]

^Prismas for me. A few Copic as well. I like Copic tips better, but they're even more ridiculously priced than prismas.

Some recent footwear sketches and renderings.

Just thought I'd bump this thread. Hopefully we can get some more traffic in here like we had before.

This is just a quick Huarache sketch I did building off the design style of the 2K8. Let me know what you guys think...

Awesome sketch man. I really like how the sole wraps up along the lateral side with those column/pillar shapes. It'll be cool to take this concept furtherand explore the different views. You should definitely post this stuff on the discussion over at core77...a lot more people looking over there. Nice job andkeep it up!

 

[1ofthesedaze]

mmmmm, i like that.

 

[ak47celtics]

Thanks guys!

Chris/Phil: Good idea...I think I'll post it over there right now.

 

[mhsrunner09]

Holy crap Ben. Stop being so good at life.

That is an AWESOME sketch.

 

[ak47celtics]

Haha...thanks man.

 

[pcpadilla]

Cool Ben...just saw your post over at core77. By the way, it's only Phil, haha

. Sorry if the "c" in my username confused you.

 

[ak47celtics]

LOL...yeah, that's what got me.

 

[arff23]

Thats one of my favorites from you Ben...

 

[ak47celtics]

Thanks a lot Brian.

 

[iye2]

^^That's dope..the detail is what makes it solid imo.

It's w/e, just tryin to mess around w/ something old..

Tpu wraps the mid, around the heel, and gets denser toward the outsole..

 

[ak47celtics]

IYE2: Looks good, a bit more detail might help though....your shading/definition on the ankle bubble is unbelievable. Nice work.

Here's a sketch I did based off one of the first designs I posted online (can be found on page 2 of this thread). TPU stretch cage beneath upper but abovebooty for lockdown..k2k3 material on heel/ankle.

[ak47celtics]

Johnny: Thanks man! I'm glad I could inspire you.

Quick sketch i did..Inspired by Air Jordan 8...

 

[nocomment6]

Cool stuff, fix up your shape a bit and they'll improve a lot.

 

[ak47celtics]

Nice sketches. Like Nocomment said, proportions could be better, but design-wise they look pretty nice.

Updated version of the design I posted before:

 

[mhsrunner09]

That's straight fire. A better-than-Hyperdunk with a classic feel instead of the ultra-modern look of the one that's coming out.

Very nice.

My drawing of Little jacob from GTA4. Any feedback?
