Just run a butter knife around the clear sole with a hair dryer and then you can instal the EL panel. As for getting the old electronics out cut all the wires and then remove the components with pliers works for me.

Second shoe went flawlessly. The first one was practically impossible I felt like. Feels like they used a completely different glue.

I was planning on recasting the soles to be Clear Icy blue. Using Clear Flex 50. But since the first pair didn't separate cleanly and I don't want to spend the time/money; molding and casting them if its not going to be close to perfect. Maybe for my next pair, since I feel the second time will be a bit easier.

Anyone order an extra pair and going to post them for sale in the JY, contact me when you put your sale thread up

I am so afraid to order them from China as with my luck they will arrive with lights out :lol
I would rather buy from someone in the US who already tested them

Mache? kickasso? Either of those guys should turn out nice.

Nope, not them. I actually have not been impressed with their work. There is someone here on the RPF that paints custom shoes and does it flawlessly.

Here is another hint:

Marty McFett :lol

"Think McFettt.... Think ... I gotta have time to re-freeze Han... Do you know what would happen if I handed in Han in your carbonite? I'd get kicked out of the Empire.... You wouldn't want that to happen now would you? Would you?... Hey McFett... Your armor is unbuckled...don't be so gullible McFett"

What the???

Just guessed them because they have both done nike mags in the past. I don't like the way when they paint theirs it has that air brushed look, I like sharp clean lines not the fuzzy lines their shoes have. I want to customize a pair of the black shoes with red EL and red paint and a carbon fiber ankle buckle, maybe one day. I am still trying to perfect my 3v system and ridge soles though so it will have to wait.

Can anyone help? Looking for the heel cups and straps are these available to buy? What about the sole of the shoe is that available any info would be great

I'd like to know how he is going to paint the fabric that green color. Would be tricky to get it even I would think?

The person I am working with uses a type of paint that is similar to ink and uses an airbrush. His work is amazing!

I am sure it can be done just was wondering how HE is going to do it. The Iron Man mags aren't a consistent color.

No one is selling these anymore. You will have to do it yourself or pay $$$$$$$$$$ for a moddification

You can get 3D printed ankle buckles (not the heel cups) from shapeways. The parts are slightly over sized but look good on the shoe and are quite affordable. You will have to make your own straps though.

Jedifyfe, the McFetts look interesting. How do you plan of tinting the rubber?

SETFREE, has been working with a new product that can tint it any color. He thinks we could even do icy blue.
