May 22 2008Hand-Drawn Zelda Themed Shoes For Sale
So a money making scheme came to me in a dream last night: 1. Buy $5 canvas shoes from Wal-Mart. 2. Lock my little brother in his room and make him draw Zelda scenes on them. 3. Scotchguard the shoes so the marker doesn't wear off and post the resulting artistic novicepieces on Etsy for $42. 4. Watch the doubloons roll in.
Now I know what you custom painted shoe haters are thinking, "Damn, these ones are actually fucking awesome!" And you're right, they are. And I'm not just saying that because I'm the one raking in the dough. Although I'm just saying that because I'm the one raking in the dough. And no, there's nothing wrong with my little brother. He was dipped out of the same kiddy gene-pool that I was, which means he's practically a genius. Aren't you little guy? Stop eating that marker. No, you can't breathe the Scotchguard. At least not until I try it first. *HUFF* Holy shit little bro, you gotta try this!
Two more pictures after the jump, and no I didn't really make these and you definitely shouldn't huff Scotchguard. Leave that to the professionals.

Looks like something my 4 year old daughter colored.

Better then the other ones. Still bad.

Better than the Marvel ones by a long shot, but still... not nearly as good the Ninja Gaiden and the Melee pairs.

CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!
More freaking shoes.
The only thing that would make these craptastic shoes not craptastic, is if Zelda came with them.

DOES Zelda come with them??
no?
CRAP CRAP CRAP!

Ok, I've read some comments and HOW are people saying these are better then the other ones? THIS LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING I WOULD BE ABLE TO DO DRUNK. Seriously, it looks really shitty.

....could'a at least put Link on there somewhere.
Also, Scotchguard is ok, but I prefer Jenkim.

Enough already for the love of god with the nintendo hand-drawn shoes.

It's like the spongebob episode where he keeps ripping his pants in new and exciting ways.

This was drawn in Sharpie, what a 'tard. Sharpie is not intended for cloth and fades pretty fast.
