Starting with a white sneaker, if I did a gradient , then wanted to do white designs on top, would recommend masking those designs, where it would be white, then airbrush the different colors…once dry, peel off design mask….OR, like you did in the video, airbrush the gradient, then stencil designs with white paint? Thanks for any advice

what program do you use to paint sneakers?
I'm trying to paint a gradient on my shoes with paint brushes. Is that possible as I don't own an airbrush? Any tips, advice or previous videos about doing a regular hand painted gradient style?
Hey, I'm looking into learning how to airbrush and found your videos very helpful! I just have 1 question tho (just to be sure). You mentioned in this video that you apply 3 coats for every main color of this gradient design color. I was wondering whether you let each coat dry before applying the next one or do you just go around the shoe and apply 3 coats in one go and then go on to the next color and repeat that process for each color?

Hey Dillon, was wondering how you painted on the sole of the sneaker and the process to make sure that stays on. Because i've herd in the customizing world that, that is a big no.
@DeJesusCustomFootwear

Oh no you never wanna paint soles, being that this is just a tiny little drip on the midsole portion in an area that doesn't contain any flex im not worried.
when i reach uni imma start to customize shoes cuz now I'm kinda low on budget and by then I won't have any problem with trying customization.
