"Do you expect me to believe," he said, "that Richard Arnold (39), the grandson of Arnold Bros (est 1905), had holes in his socks?"

Um...I have a few questions- One: How do you get paint off the rubbery bit of the shoe? I tape mine up because I make SUCH a mess, but more often than not it dribbles down and goes BLEARGH.
Two: How doe you get paint out of caprpets? Again. I tryy not to by putting down newspaper, but I've scrubbed for what seems like HOURS and I still can't get some of it out.
Three: Do you use any varnishy type stuff to make it look shiny?
Four: How many pairs of shoes have you done? I've done TWO. Well, one and almost another pair. And it's so messy *doooom*

Three: Mmn, no, not really, but of you want it to look a bit more shiny, just paint several layers of paint. I've noticed that the more layers you use, the shinyer it looks - but then it also feels stiffer. The varnish adds a bit to the shine, too. But to be honest, I never really aimed for shiny shoes, so I am not sure of there IS a varnish to make painted shoes shiny. XD
Four: I've painted eight pairs of shoes by now, of which I sold six. Except for one - the pair I used in the tut - they're all here: [link]
And messy doesn't have to be d00mish. x'D Sometimes messy is cooler than everything looking awfully straight within lines and stuff. Will you upload them? :'D

Jif works well enough, but I have to be ultra careful and rub gently because the paint can come off.
I use varnish designed to go with acrylics, which is what I use as said above.
I agree, messy does look quite effective. I did one part of a shoe in red (Supposed to be a bit gory) and the paint ran. It looked quite effective.
I will! I've got a friend of mine coming over in a few days to take photos of the shoes, and me painting shoes and of my bag (Because none of it fits in my scanner...) And I'll take photos of her falling over things (has a very messy room)
