Does Dwyane Wade fit into the Signa

At one time, being chosen by a brand to have a signature line was the ultimate sign of accomplishment. Some of the greatest Hall of Famers didn’t hear of such a thing, but when Michael Jordan signed a deal with Nike in 1984, the game of signature sneaker forever changed. Instantly every brand was reaching to their top athletes to create a product that was co-labeled with a trusted logo and a marquee name. Basketball was THE sport footwear companies were after and getting a face to represent your logo was mandatory to make it in the competitive market. Adidas, Converse, Reebok, New Balance, Avia, LA Gear, and even KSwiss got their name into the NBA and NBA player’s names on their shoes.While some brands had their chosen one, players names began to become ubiquitous with the products they wore. For years, Charles Barkley played in the same Air Force basketball shoes many other players wore, but on the streets, they were known simply as the Barkleys. Slowly Nike added his jersey number to the shoes on heel tabs, added “CB� to the end of the product name, before eventually giving Sir Charles a full fledged line of products named after him.Read the rest close

Rendering a Basketball Shoe in Digi

For my second official post on Sole Collector I thought it would be great to show some design sketching and rendering.  I know a lot of you like to see concepts so here is one that I did a while back.  It’s a descriptive step by step tutorial explaining my process.  If all goes well, I hope to do many more in the future…. maybe even videos!First, begin your design with a simple line drawing. Decide on a perspective view for this demo I chose a typical Lateral side-view. I typically do several quick studies of various design lines, once I like a particular direction, I commit to it and expand those lines with more detail. From here we can move to the rendering phase.Once you have your final line drawing figured out, add a new layer and select your brush (in this case the airbrush). Begin to block areas of the design with solid colors. I wanted the base of the shoe to be pretty dark so I chose a 75% grey color so that I could still make the form darker by adding black to it. Don't worry about going beyond your shape boundaries because you can erase what you donâ€â„¢t want with the eraser tool.Continue blocking colors for all your different parts and erase close
