To place your order, Message me with your shoe size and brand preference (see below for approved list) and then colour of the shoe desired. Standard shoe will be in either Natural or White colour (unless otherwise specified). Next let me know what kind of design you are wanting. Reference pictures are encouraged if you have a specific pose in mind, otherwise I will find what works best for the shoe. Rough sketch of design will be provided if necessary prior to painting so as to get the details how you want them.
