"A little about the design: These were a great challenge, I am a fan of the steampunk aesthetic but finding a way to represent that on a shoe and combining it with my style was pretty tricky. I decided to go with a copper, bronze, gold and an aluminium colorway. My signature robot arm pattern is on the lateral sides and they have been submerged in a green slime which is seeping out of the inner lining. To accompany this there has been damage done to the bronze panels exposing the aluminium underside, the damage was first woodburnt in to give it some extra depth. The logo was also tricky, as you can see there is a bunch of straight lines and two band colors, both of which in the Angelus world have poor opactity meaning they required 4+ coats so keeping them crisp took a lot of concentration and energy drinks. The major final touch was the cogs on the medial side to help tie in the steampunk aesthetic. I am stoked with how these turned out and what a good way to send me off to the USA!
