what up NT, i'm a longtime lurker but first time poster
couple days ago I found an old pair of bland pumas, I wanted to do something with them instead of letting it sit in the closet. Im not artistic by any means, Isuck at sketching painting etc so this is my first attempt at doing something with sneakers.

after:
