This is a pair of my son's old boots I painted with a G.I.Joe/Cobra theme. I did one shoe to represent the Joe's and the other for Cobra. I decided to paint them since they were old, and also because the G.I.Joe brand is limited to just ROC related stuff. Enjoy.

Yep. He's in a summer program and the first day he wore them they commented on them. Most of the kids knew who the characters were. I choose those characters due to the high exposure they have in the media. I also did his bookbag with the Cobra emblem.

Nice paint job. You must do custom figures, right?

Awesome! That is a very creative idea. Do you put any protectant on the shoes to keep the paint from getting messed up? What sort of paint do you use for that?

My oldest 2 boys (ages 4 and 7) know who those characters are. My 4 year old, though, calls Storm Shadow "Shadow Storm".

Nope. I'm worried that if I do I might like it, and have a reason to buy more figures for fodder<--that word is still greek to me.

I use acrylics, the regular stuff you can find at walmart and I put a matte sealant. The gloss would make it look shiny like patent leather. I just finished up my Marvel/DC boots for myself with artwork a lot more refined. I plan on doing me a pair of Joe/Cobra boots with either ubscure characters drawn my way, or classic characters drawn the way they look on the classic cards.
