I always appreciate the tips & how u explain it. My project I'm working on is mock ups. Since my device can't get procreate or Krita I'm using Hipaint for the moment. It works how I want it but I'm still getting used to the layer setup cause I keep erasing my design that's on top of the sneaker by accident. For example I want a design on the swoosh but I keep erasing the image and the sneaker image below the swoosh. So I'm still learning the buttons n what does what.
You know what! Before you know it you're going to be a pro at HiPaint and you're going to look back and realize that you couldn't do what you can now a few months ago. That's the satisfaction in this industry. You don't always see your growth and improvement as you go, because the wins are small and the progress is slow. BUT if you take the time to look back, you can always see the impact it has made. Keep on striving! Would love to see some of your designs. Do you have an instagram page where you post any of them?
@@thatmadartist I haven't set up Instagram at the moment. In due time I will when I have enough stuff to upload. I'm a newbie when it comes to Instagram so that's something I'll have to mess with, with one of my nieces or nephew's. Once I set it up u'll b the 1st person I'll add. I used to have facebook but that got hack so I gave up on that n deleted the account. Can't wait 2 see what ur next video will b about. I'm off to mess with this Hipaint.
Well! I think I might just make a video JUST for you to explain it! It's a bit much for me to explain with just text on a comment, so stay tuned for your video!
Yes I do. I’ve tried using the tracing paper but was unable to transfer my image to the shoe I was trying to use on. I was planning on using vans white high top
my advice to anyone thinking about customizing shoes, get the cheapest cricut and skip this step entirely. this is good if its a one off, if you gotta do it more than once invest the money.
Wow, are they must be really helpful to your work to say that! Definitely see their value. The problem is, that many places outside of the US and Australia, they are soooo expensive, and they are a little out of reach for someone who is getting started and still just trying to scrape together cash for practice shoes, paints, and possibly an airbrush. So I offer this step to help people overcome that barrier to entry so they don't feel discouraged, or that great work only belongs to those who can afford it
Well thank God I can just draw anything directly into vinyl but I rather just wait for a Black Friday and buy a stencil machine if I really wanted to... or I can just draw it straight on the shoe.
If this comment gets 100 likes, I'll hand stencil that crazy tree 06:14 and make a video about it. Haha. (Why am I doing this to myself 😆😂)
Thank u for this video. Best home made stencil video I've seen so far. Truly appreciate it 🙏🏼
Phenomenal video my man!!
@DeJesusCustomFootwear thanks for the encouragement Dylan!

How do you paint nice glowing effect? Like 00:00 in this vid and all around the transformers.

Good video but how does someone apply the details on the drawing?
Aaaaah! Now that is another great video idea! But, before I explain, do you know how to use tracing paper when copying or tracing a drawing?
Yes I do. I’ve tried using the tracing paper but was unable to transfer my image to the shoe I was trying to use on. I was planning on using vans white high top
U rock
No no no nooooo. YOU rock!

@@PochoNieves thats true. But drawing straight onto the shoe doesn't help you get clean lines for airbrushing and almost always looks less refined!
A used cricut for $100
Definitely! If you can find one! We never had much luck!
