[princezrae]

Wow.Thats Amazing.Teach me to draw!
i didn't even know i could draw! hahaha. i guess that's a result of boredom xD
thanks ^_^

[underpressure]

those are so good!

[Coffee]

I like the one at the top of the second picture, the fish scale/plaster waves effect.

Makes me consider splashing out on another pair of cheap Lonsdales...

[Nath]

Those are some awesome designs, I love the creativity and freshness. Too many custom chucks are just hearts or skulls or flowers. You really bring some variety!

Oh, and what did you use to mark them? I see some sort of fabric pen in one pic...

[superdoofus]

really great job.
what you have done is both artistry and design. the falling stars are excellent company to the thatches of grass below.

[Xander]

kakkoii desu yo! (so cool!!)

[Number09]

Wow... I love the falling stars and the scale pattern!

[bee_czar]

Excellent :D

[graymama]

I love the first one! The star that mimics the logo on the other side, and the tattoo type design you added around the actual logo. I want a pair:)

[princezrae]

thanks for all the comments! <3

[underpressure, coffee, superdoofus, & xander]: thanks thanks! make urs too! ^^
[nath]: yeah, i used just 1 fabric marker xD imma gonna buy a new one, and oh im lookin for colored ones now too.. :D

[princezrae]

ooooh i didn't see it already has a page 2 xD *silly me*

[number09, bee_czar]: thanks!
[graymama]: wanna buy one? xD kiddin! ^^ go buy one then customize it then post the pics here too! ^^

[Vintageartyfarty]

Im not usually a fan of customised chucks but you have done such a fantastic job - it looks so cool :)

[naturals_not_in_it]

Amazing. I love the detailing around the eyelets on the left shoe. Great attention to detail. You put regular chucks to shame.

[emerald]

I agree with Vintageartyfarty - I'm not big on custom chucks, but I think you did a fabulous job on these!! They look great!!

[princezrae]

[vintageartyfarty, naturals_not_in_it, and emerald]: thanks!!! ^^, i really appreciate all ur comments! ^^

**i'll try to find other chucks that i can customize (maybe my friends' chucks) xD and see if i can make this a business.. haha!**

[graymama]

If you used a 2-3 years size 9-10 (http://www.converse.com/zproductmatrix.asp?zgenid=3&exclusiveid=0&page=1&leftnavid=5&bhfv=2&bhfx=9.0%20r45&bhbb=1&bhqs=1), I would buy a pair for my son :)

[Nath]

I have a pair of spiffy unworn grey chucks, if I mail them to you with money would you mail them back with pretty designs?

[twinkleetoessx3]

wow, is all i can say.those are fabulous!

[princezrae]

[nath]: as long as they're well washed! xD *kidding*

and well, as u can see my designs are very spontaneous. if ur willing to receive ur chucks back with random designs, then its ok ^^ haha
but if u want u can suggest what u want me to put there i guess, as long as i can draw it, y not? ^^

[gollygeeitsbee]

i am absolutely in love with your shoes
you did an amazing job.

[HarlequinMask224]

those are amazing!! I tried painting mine, and now they're really shiny and kinda not breathable, I didn't really think of using sharpie or markers or anything. They're crazy I love um.

[misshannigan09]

Wow U Should Make A Buisness! If U Do Il Buy Them In A Heart Beat! I Cant Seem To Find Any Cool Ones Like That And Im Not That Savy With A Paintbrush Lol!

[princezrae]

haha.. i'm really thinking of making this a business, my friend will be the one shopping for chucks, and i will customize them.

any ideas how i can sell them so all of u can buy from me? :D lolz ^^

*btw, i'm also thinking of selling it in etsy, so watch out for it once i can apply for a credit card! hahahaha xD*

[DBXP]

I like the tribal art around the logo. Along with the 2nd one with the little dude infront of a tree...

...I need to do this to one pair of my chucks...

[yoogrldude]

Sweeet. I should upload the ones I did for my friend (unfortunately the one that turned out better was thrown away because I still had the other and her mom was cleaning out her closet) and my little doodlies on mine =]

[ButterflyDemise]

Very awesome! I showed this to my little sister and now she wants to rob you XD Love 'em <3

[blueknewtheshoe]

Those are really cool! There are definitely people that would buy those... I would buy those!

[Treelover]

wow epic!!!!!!

[Britty]

I wish I could draw well, :/ doesn't mater my mom would bleach my chucks anyway untill the pen came off o.O she's odd like that.

[princezrae]

sorry if this post will be sooooooooo late..

i just saw the episode wherein my chucks were featured. haha.
i know a lot others has started customizing their own shoes too, but so as you know, i'm still using these old babies and with a few more added designs. (during the times i was bored, and my handy-dandy pen is in my bag hehe :D)

to Nath: (sorry for the super late reply)
just a regular fabric pen out of a bookstore from the mall~ :)

btw: i made 3 pairs to my friends! ^^

[KoolKatKellie]

I love these!!!!! I hope that the marker doesn't wash off if they get wet....

And you should of really posted this in the Projects section, because they would of gotten more views that way... But, oh well, I still like the shoes! ;)

[bluebell835]

Amazing! The tree with the people is AMAZING!
Th swirly pattern/half circle pattern is dizzying and awesome.
