Since sending in pictures of the kicks I made for a friend to Farewell, I've been requested to make more. Plenty of people have ordered shoes, then never got around to messaging me back or paying me, so only a total have three were ever truly completed and shown to the band.
I've customized shoes for Sunset Greets the Moon (asked personally by them, thn sold, with permission) and Jeff Ellis' mother from Farewell. I find this extremely gratifying, and a nod to my reliability when it comes to providing you with the completed work.
I will not scam. Never have, never will. In fact, I make it a habit to actually pick up the shoes themselves to make sure they have your size before asking for any sort of payment. If you're in a band, you get special treatment and I won't charge at all unless you want them for yourselves (in which case, you don't have to pay until they're completely finished, and even then I cut good deals).
I WILL NOT, NEVER EVER EVER REMAKE THE FIRST PAIR OF FAREWELL SHOES I PAINTED. They were made specifically for the girl holding them in the photo after. That's my Manduh, and those are her shoes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My customizations are broken down into three costs.
Shoe: Generally $10, or the price for Vans or Converses (I've never bought real ones, so I couldn't say the price). Or free, if you send me your own shoes.
Design: This ranges anywehere from $15 to $60, really relying on what you're wanting. For instance, my FTSK pair would be $20 for design, while the Aiden ones are $60. (FW designs hover between $25 and $40.)
Shipping: In the continental US, this is usually $6 or $7. Overseas varies, but I'll let you know the price if you tell me where you live.
So if you live in the US, I buy the shoes, and get a standard design ($25), it'd be around $41 total.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can recreate pretty much any design you can give me. This means you're NOT limited to just bands. The shoes I wear are freehand doodlings of mine (the skull ones).

Once upon a time, Marshall sent me a bunch of would-be shirt designs and told me to have at it, so I have other Farewell designs sketched out, if you want something unique. Some are my own design, some are his ideas. Here are some.
OneTwoThreeFour(the thing with number four, the first drawing with the balls, is when Farewell's quote was "Putting the balls back into a neutered genre." The right shoe says Farewell if you read it right. xD)
