I really enjoy doing style challenges, and recently I was hoping I’d get to do one that would give me the opportunity to draw some real fun sneakers. But then I realized I could come up with one myself~ So hey! If you’ve ever thought that crazy shoes seem fun to draw, but were always a little afraid of diving in, give it a shot✨
Some style notes I kept in my head if it helps:
The shoes are one of the main focal points, it’s about the shoes~ I focused on sneakers, but go with what feels right
Lots of movement in the loose hair and clothes
Use whatever colors make you happy! Or match the shoes or character. Go nuts with it~
I used the peppermint brush in Procreate for my lines, just some kind of pencil texture
And if you think shoes are a little too complex for you, I like to think of shoes like a really simple wedge shape, or like a slice of cake on its side~ It makes it less overwhelming
Here’s the masquerade piece that I did for @vesuvian-nights-zine last July!✨ Excited to finally post the whole piece~ And it sounds like they are also going to be opening their extra stock sales later this month if anyone is interested in picking it up!
