I also second the selling blank soles- those're always the rough part for me, when I want to make shoes.

Only the lace-up shoes are on Etsy.  The Rainbow Dash shoes are made from a recast of a MH shoe, and even though they're customized, I don't feel comfortable selling recasts (recasts are all either going into my doll collection or getting put on customs) and the traditional pink shoes are for a Draculaura custom.

Now that I don't have all weekend to work on them, production has slowed quite a bit, lol!

Rarity shoes by RequiemArt.com, on Flickr

I'd like to do a whole Mane 6 FIM set.  I'm thinking Rarity needs something more on the toe, and Twilight Sparkle needs something more on the heel.

That leaves Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie.  While Pinkie is my fav, I have no idea how to do shoes for her!  I mean... how do you fit all that crazy on one shoe?

I would say... either some lighter purple on Rarity up front, or if you an find them some light blue gems shaped like her cutiemark. For Twilight, maybe some more gems along the 'seamline' at the heel.
As for pinkie pie... If you can manage it, either swirl two shades of pink, or pink with just a bit of blue and yellow like her balloons into the resin, so it's marbled. It'll make it stand out, and if you do the other colors thinly it could come out as cracks within the pink- something under the surface leaking out.

Oh those are so cool! I think Twilight shoes look great the way they are! I agree Rarity shoes need something on the toe, maybe just paint the toe purple and maybe a simple gem?

I agree, Pinkie would be hard to fit in a shoe!! :lol: I can't wait to see what you come up with for the rest!

These shoes are so inventive!  Any updates on the MLP line?

Thanks! And nope!

I ordered some tiny fimo apple slices for Applejack's shoes, waiting for them to arrive.  And I'm just having a hard time figuring out what to do for Pinkie and Fluttershy.  Mostly Pinkie.

For Fluttershy maybe a butterfly molded/painted onto the heel and sheer ribbon to lace up the leg? Lace ups would be a nod to her Gala shoes and sheer ribbon looks more delicate (which I think of Fluttershy as).

Sorry, not very original!
