Instructions


  1. Step 1 1

    Gather Supplies:
    + Old flats (mine are leather)
    + Acrylic paint (for outline)
    + white Fabric paint
    + small Paint brush
    .
    ... & most importantly
    + Drawing Skills!!

  2. Step 2 2

    First, use the white Acrylic paint for outline drawing, because it washes off if you make a mistake. ;)
    .
    Right Shoe:
    First paint the middle toe, down the middle of the shoe ...follow the curve of the shoe a little as well.
    Theres 4 bones!

  3. Step 3 3

    Then paint the next toe almost exact same way.
    Then do the "big toe" ...which is shorter, & ONLY HAS 3 BONES!
    .
    ...All other toes have 4 bones.

  4. Step 4 4

    On the other side, draw the 4th toe. Same as first 2, just lil shorter (see in next pic).
    .
    **Use wet q-tip to fix mistakes!!**

  5. Step 5 5

    & finish with 'pinky-toe'. Has thinner, & shorter bones.
    .
    & your finished sketchin the top!!
    <<<--- Should look like this.

  6. Step 6 6

    Now for the side:
    .
    Start near the heel; draw this shape (in pic). Its the heel/ankle bones.

  7. Step 7 7

    Then draw 2 connecting square-shape bones.
    Followed by a regular shape bone.
    .
    Make sure it looks like they fit together, like a puzzle piece. ;)

  8. Step 8 8

    Once it looks good enough ...just trace over the whole thing in white 'Fabric paint'. This will make it permanent (even on slick surface shoes).
    .
    Be careful, bc it does not wipe off easily; stay in lines!!!

  9. Step 9 9

    Let the right shoe dry ....
    REPEAT PROCESS for left shoe (just toes r backwards now)!
    .
    Let dry over-night before wearing. Use wet q-tip to clean off any leftover acrylic off shoe.
    .
    And your done!
    Show off your new X-Ray Shoes!
