Don't undervalue your artwork. It's obvious to see the commercial influence behind so many custom sneaker projects. Most of which probably barely scratch the surface of what the artists could be receiving. Your artwork has a lot of value beyond a given dollar amount.

if I see one more brand this week that is supposed to be "for" sneaker customizers using pisspoor AI for their marketing images I'm gonna have to start making fun of them.

Mind your business. Mindyourbusiness. Myb.

I think if you're gonna paint an American flag custom sneaker and put the shadow lines as if the flag is waving the stripes cannot be completely straight.

Lightly scratching your painted shoe with an exacto knife is not the same as the possible abrasion your painted shoes will face when they are actually worn.

For a long time the majority of sneaker artists relied on one paint brand for their sneaker customization. I think we've finally hit a point that there is now 4 to 5 solid options and even more if you count brands outside of America. But we still need to know which is best!

Embrace AI with your custom sneaker ventures, go for it. Let your audience determine whether it's worthwhile or not. But please do not go around claiming an AI image is an image of a custom sneaker you actually made when in fact you did not.

You're being lazy if the majority of your custom sneaker portfolio is simply the all white AF1.

If I see one more god damn AI custom sneaker "rendering"

this shoe is going to have so many colorways that none end up sticking out as significant.

well @Nike @footlocker the quality received here is a bit underwhelming. Thanks so much!

Excessive "Sneaker Of The Year" talk shouldn't take place in January of the following year.

Jordan Brand can royally fuck off if an average "consumer" version of that book is not made available.

i sure hope everyone ever doing Nesquik customs was paid well.

What is it these days that people are so obsessed with stating they are the first to do something?

If I NEVER saw a custom sneaker concept rendering in my feeds again I'd die a happy person no matter what else happens in my life.
