Thank you, this was perfect! I want to start a few custom pieces to see where it takes me but needed to research what kind of paints, how to prep etc. this was just what I needed!
Awesome work!!! Great explanation, I’m getting ready to start customizing sneakers and other items of clothing etc. This video helped. Much appreciated thank you for taking time to do so.
AMAZING!!! I will try to do my best. Customizing mommy and daughter birthday Vans for my daughter and I. Its her halloween bday (well a day before), and we are going to Disneyland!!. She requested little mermaid!! I can't believe I found this video. Will do another pic, but wish me luck! Beautiful work. will send pic when I am done. Thank you for sharing your amazing work.
Love the work on the shoes! I do have one question, do you use the 2 soft only on the white base you used or do you mix it in with every color you used?
hi! just came across your video. Awesome work. I just painted a pair of vans. I see in your video you used a Matte finisher. Do you prefer this over the glossy? Thanks!
This was super in depth, compared to way more popular channels that don’t tell you what to do at all. My only question is do you mix the 2 soft with the colours when you paint the design??
I know that this was a while ago, but if you were still wondering, yes. You will mix the 2 soft with all colors and have to heat/blow dry between each layer.
I dont have angelus paint but I have acrylic. is there anything I should note about using normal acrylic paint? also what type of sealer/finisher should I use to protect my work. my main focus is making it waterproof.
PTXCeline hey! acrylic paints work fine, but there’s a possibility the paint will crack with wear and bending of the shoe. That’s why I always use a base with 2 soft medium. Also any sealer would work. Mod podge or krylon carry finishing sprays. Again, I use angelus products because they work so well for me so I can’t be sure about anything else! Hope that helps.
@@chloexiao9100 mod podge has a sealing spray. I heard from other shoe customize that they dont reccomend normal mod podge. but krylon matte finish seems to be the most popular option. I managed to find it at a local craft store
Max Hinojosa the base and primer layer of white mixed with the 2soft gives it the flexibility it needs to not crack with wear. My results have been great with this method so far ! 🎨☺️
Love your video I bought adidas as same as the vans like white i want it to customise also like what youve done can you give me some tips I scared of doing it bec have not yet done it before as in first time maybe im mess it up.thank you
Hi I know this is an old video but what software are you using on that tablet. with the vans template to place the images on it. Thanks love your work.
Great work!! I learned a lot & I’m hoping you could give me some advice 😅. I recently painted my vans using angelus acrylic, but I didn’t know about using the soft medium in the beginning nor the heating. How will this affect my work? Is there any way I can prevent the cracking if that’ll be the cause?
Thank you! And I’m not sure how that will look with wear. I don’t think there’s anything can prevent it once the paint is on . But angelus paint has a great texture im sure it’ll hold up well
I have vans that have lasted me years & still look great. also depends on how often you wear. I would recommend just wiping them with a rag or gentle soap and water and not using harsh chemicals. Might cause the paint to break down.
Omg this is so beautiful... oh please send me a starter kit..... I'm based in south Africa Cape town and would love to do this... what where do I start with the paints, is it normal acrylic or fabric???
Thank u ! You can use either. I just add a fabric medium that is heat set. It thins the paint and helps it adhere to the fabric without cracking. maybe you can order online !
Hi Angela! I have a ton of flat shoes 🥿 I can’t wear heals 😞 So my most comfortable shoes seem to have a wide front box. I have some Keds and other brands which are comfortable forms for me that look like boxes on my petite feet. I would like to Change the shape of them with Paint! Visually I would like the shoe to have a more pointed toe for a more flattering look. Is this possible?
Im a little confused!!! Do you use the angelus paint for the colors as well or just for the base and then regular acrylic on top??? Any tips would be great
You can but I’m not sure about the results you’d get. Depending on the consistency there might be cracking. Maybe add a medium to it that’s made for fabrics . 2soft or gac (golden)
Would a all purpose sealer work for this ???I have some delta creative all purpose sealer , I used on my acrylic painting , terra cotta pots , wood surface that I’ve painted
I think I messed up my daughters canvas shoes. I totally forgot to base coat the canvas shoes. I was wondering why the paint looks dull.....should I acetone the paint off? or paint over it....I used angelus glitter too....fml
I have so many different ones I’ve gotten over the years. From local art stores/michaels. Honestly any brush works as long as theyre soft and small for details 😂 🤷🏽♀️
I’m like great, a how to video. Paint a base on the shoe, ok I got that, now next paint a work of art and you’re done. Those are so awesome. Wow
Awesome Work!
Thank you !

Ashley Vazquez thank you so much 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Love the work on the shoes!
I do have one question, do you use the 2 soft only on the white base you used or do you mix it in with every color you used?
Do you mix 2-soft with each color you paint or just on the initial base when prepping the shoe?
Just the prep. You can do either. I like my method and haven’t had any issues with paint cracking !
I love the shoes and you to so pretty 😍😍😍
Amazing! Thanks!
omg!! these are GORGEOUS

You do OUTSTANDING work. Do you have a website, and do you take orders?

Great vid! Very helpful. The artwork is 🔥
Thank you! Appreciate it 👌🏾
Very talent! ,and kiutt!!
Hi! Lovely work! What software do you use to get a digital creation of the shoe?? Love that.
Also the small paint brush you used in the beginning? I am having a hard tome finding. A good one
Superb work 👍
Thank you ! 💛
Love these!!!
So talented! Thank you for sharing this. Also your gorgeous ☺️
They should make sneakers with black vinyl soles like that. They would hide dirt a lot better.
If we want to keep the base color of the canvas shoe can you apply 2-soft and it will dry clear?
Great work.
Can you provide a link the to paint brushes please?
Thanks ! I don’t have specific preferences or brushes I use.
Awesome video! Im looking to paint my own shoes. I have a lot of liquitex acrylic paint. Could I use that instead of craft paint on the shoes?
Should work just as good! I do like to add a fabric medium like GAC 900 or Angelou’s 2 soft to thin the paint and ensure it doesn’t crack.
You are amazing!!!! Much love from DC missy 🤙🏾
You’re very talented, you should post more

would i use the 2 soft for every paint i use or just the white coat of paint you put on first?
You can do either. I usually just put 2soft on the prime layer and have had beautiful turnouts with no cracking
So only do the 2 soft mix when applying the first white layers, so there is no need to mix the 2 soft when doing detail??????
Max Hinojosa the base and primer layer of white mixed with the 2soft gives it the flexibility it needs to not crack with wear. My results have been great with this method so far ! 🎨☺️
Whitney Esther ok thank u soooo much

deathstormvp thank you ! I’m using ProCreate and a vans template from google! Should be easy to find one 👌🏾
So many comments. Apologize if this has already been asked. Do you use 2-soft with the paints when painting or just for the base coats?
0% Luck 100%skill 🎖️
Beautiful work. What kind of brushes do you use if you dont mind me asking.
Thank you! I use lots of different brands. Here I’m using some royal and langernickel brushes from Michaels

I would recommend just wiping them with a rag or gentle soap and water and not using harsh chemicals. Might cause the paint to break down.
Talented❤️❤️
Beautiful!🔥🔥🔥
Do you mix the paints with 2-soft and still can dissolve it with water?
Amazing work! Just curious, how much do you sell a pair of shoes like those for??
Do you heat set the detail work as well? Or only your white base layers?

Change the shape of them with Paint! Visually I would like the shoe to have a more pointed toe for a more flattering look. Is this possible?
this is beautiful -- are you a self taught painter or did you go to school for art ?
Can i just use 2 soft without paint color for shoe prep?
I love your work
Thank you!
Beutiful work
Thank you!
So good and thanks for sharing! Is the paint you used also by Angelus?
Mostly yes.
Can you use just regular acrylic paint to paint the shoes?
You can but there’s no guarantee that they won’t crack with wear.
Would you recommend the Angelou’s Matte finish or a spray finisher ?
Acrylic finisher can protect your shoes from weather and stain?
Slightly yes. It’s seals your work. They do sell water and stain protectant that would be a great extra barrier of protection 👌🏾
@@WhitneyEsther Woooow. Nice. Thank you. I hope I can buy these things, I live in Hungary, not so easy to find a shop which can ship to here.
Can angelus acrylics using water as an agent wash over the canvas ? And for gradation also blending
Yes definitely !
Wow!!!! Beautiful! Beautiful!!
Thanks !
are you supposed to put that shiny stuff on after it has dried for a day or before it has dried?
Amaaazing
So does the finisher protect the painting or do you need something else on top of that?
Im a little confused!!! Do you use the angelus paint for the colors as well or just for the base and then regular acrylic on top??? Any tips would be great
Did you use 2-soft with every color besides white as well?
Where did you get the shoe insert to hold it.
Hello,
Is all of the paint you're using also mixed with 2-soft? Or is it just the first white layer?
You can do either. I just prep the first base layer with 2 soft
Do you apply acrylic finisher pure or you also add 2 soft on that.. Thanks
Acrylic finisher ! 🙌🏾
Does the angelus acrylic finish cause any cracking on canvas shoes?
I’ve personally never had any cracking with Angelus
Can you use other brands of acrylic paints for this?
You can but I’m not sure about the results you’d get. Depending on the consistency there might be cracking. Maybe add a medium to it that’s made for fabrics . 2soft or gac (golden)
@@WhitneyEsther thank you!
Would a all purpose sealer work for this ???I have some delta creative all purpose sealer , I used on my acrylic painting , terra cotta pots , wood surface that I’ve painted
I’m actually not sure! i would stick to something that can be used on fabrics to ensure it works the best.
Can i use gesso to prime shoes
I’ve never used acrylic gesso to prime. Might work. If it’s too thick tho I’d be cautious about cracking
I think I messed up my daughters canvas shoes. I totally forgot to base coat the canvas shoes. I was wondering why the paint looks dull.....should I acetone the paint off? or paint over it....I used angelus glitter too....fml
Magnifique sublime
Hey, love your work !
What kind of paint did you use !?
I use angelus leather Paints
Did you mix each of the color with a 50/50 mix of Too Soft?
I don’t i just do the base and heat set it. Have had great results. But you can !
What kind of paint brushes do u use
I have so many different ones I’ve gotten over the years. From local art stores/michaels. Honestly any brush works as long as theyre soft and small for details 😂 🤷🏽♀️
