Adidas Predator Instinct - WARRIOR PACK

I don't usually post other peoples pictures, but these are just too amazing not to share!! 

Adidas Predator Instinct - WARRIOR PACK


Who'd of thought you could combine the art of 
Tattooing and football boots so beautifully? 


@ThePredatorPro and the amazingly talented @Samanthabelleraeetattoo have come together to create this MASTERPIECE of a boot.  



These boots were inspired by the Inca warrior culture. Strength and prowess combined with powerful Imagery. Black leather and gold armour, with the demons head carved into stone and emblazoned in gold. Perfect battle gear for the warrior on the field.



What do you think of them?

Nike Mercurial Veloce - The step by step makeover!

I've wanted to do something to these Mercurials for a long time. 

This is the first time I've done anything like this, so please don't mind any of the messiness. The next time will be better, I promise!
BEFORE


I printed Tiger stripes and cut them out so I could use the page as a stencil.


I covered the parts I didn't want to paint with masking tape.
And then I sized up the stencil and cut it in half to cover one side of the boot.


I covered the boot with the stencil and used a glossy black spray paint.


Videos on YouTube of these being sprayed!

I removed the stencil and was happy with how it turned out. 
But some paint did drip down onto the blades because I didn't cover it well enough.



Then I used the other half of the stencil to cover the other side.
This time I made sure the stencil was tighter and covered the boot.









I'm really happy with how this turned out. This was a fun project. It was also very cheap. 
You can buy DIY kits for about €40, which is pretty expensive.
Or you can send your boots off to get Blacked Out, which is also expensive. 

So if you are artistic at all, or just a perfectionist, I suggest you give this a go! Maybe not on your favorite boots.
