Comic Shoes

Can I use Water colored nail paint ... as I can't find Mod podge glue here in Nepal?

hi! what kind of shoe did you use??

I flipping love this process and totally used it to make some pumps !

Would it have to be the comic book paper for it to work?

Those are the greatest!! Totally dig them. Might have to find us some shoes now ;)

Yeah, I was just going to say you can buy sprays like Scotchgard or another weatherproofing spray and use that for a top coat. I'd still use common sense and not wear them in snow or rain, but it may help if you get them wet accidentally.

if you dont have mod podge do you still coat the shoe with glue?

wow these are awesome!,maybe ill try with snoopy or garfield!

I totaly have to make W.I.T.C.H or cirque du freak shoes. Thanks for the idea by the way. It's the BOMB.COM

Also, will this work even if the original color of my shoes is black?

Did your shoes crack when you wore them? I really really want to make shoes like these but I'm afraid that they'll crack or won't last -_-

YES. This is an epic win! <3

This is probably the coolest thing since sliced bread. I'll be needing to make a pair of Batman ones! (As soon as I get mod podge...)

lol looks awesome >~< yesh it does! lol i'll be sure to try it out sometime!

These are gorgeous! Thanks for the tutorial. I'm definately gonna make these someday soon. So cute ^_^

This is a really cool idea. I might go to the comic book store and cut up some Fables.

wow that is rad... i want to make some brenda starr ones! jk... ;)

omg! they are just... beautiful really aren't they? well done

WOW! its totally easy i think

This is a cute idea, but I would hate to cut up any of my marvel comics...but...I would love a pair of x-men shoes!!!

hey that's heaps awesome!

go riot ftw! best place to get stuff! the shops are everywhere in syd~

Yours actually look good! most of the other ones on here look unwearable and peeling and stuff. Well done haha

that is sooo awesome. i saw one like that but with a guitar. wouldn't it crack though if you wear the shoes? how long have you been wearing the shoes? but i think ill try this never the less thanks for the how to

thats such a good idea! recently i did some doodley shoes with sharpies, and it took me hours, so now ive seen this i know for next time to do it like this-- it'll save me loads of time and i wont lose patience!!!

this is reallly awesome and cool, i draw by myself too comics so i can make one of me own comics on my shoes. thanks You can seal it with mode poge for fabric. It doens't dry quickly but you ware your shoes in rainy days.
I have made several things with that material and i really works. You must have only patience Good luck. I love it!

awesome job

I'm really tempted to try this on an old pair of heels... =D

I do that soo looong agooooo...like 4 years agoo I used snoopy comics, and NEVER GO OUT IF IS RAINING..T.T because thats paper...=P

Hey sweetie, I am loving the shoes. To make it easier on yourself next time I would use spray adhesive and spray it in sections. Much easier to work with and less messy. You can pick that up at Riot as well for $12.99 rrp or you can get it for $6.00 if you wait for a sale.

Soooo doing this for next spring!

Hey Chuckee. Yer they are totally comfortable The mod podge doesn't make them stiff or anything. Well nothing changed since I made them, they just look awesome now lol XD

Dude... But are they actually comfortable?
'Cause I always got the impression they'd get all stiff, ya know?

Thanks Katie C! If it's in Australia I'll look into it!

Lydia, Mod Podge is basically (pva) glue...sadly it's not waterproof.

i love archie comics!....oh and..whats mod podge and is it water proof?

You should use RedHead Waterproofer Aerosol Spray for Shoes and Boots. I sell it at my job and people swear that it's awesome. That should work on your project.
