“When the will is ready the feet are light.”


I bought the hottest heels to paint! I started with a favorite theme of mine... snakes! so the shoes are almost done! what i need to know is this: should i make a listing to sell these kicks using a foot model? Do you wanna see someone elses tootsies in your shoes? Do you really need to see what they look like on a foot?


Hmmmm help me out!

  1. I guess I would get grossed out seeing someone elses sweaty feet in my new shoes. :0) I'm a germ freak though! :0P

  2. I would have to say skip the model. Even though you can get a better idea what they look like I think the whole germ thing would bother a lot of people.

  3. How strange it seems to me, you can't go to most stores and buy a pair of shoes that haven't been tried on by another person.

    I always prefer to see them on a model. :)

  4. YES I think you need a foot model. Run to a shoe store and get those little stocking and make them put them on - but you really gotta see what they look like on.

  5. I say skip the model. I'd rather envision myself in those shoes! :D

  6. I don't think you need a model at all. I love shoe sites like Zappos and they never have photos of the shoes on models. Just really detailed close-ups and such. Which are much more important in my opinion. Good luck!

  7. Model not necessary--just lots of close ups and angles!!!

  8. Interesting dilemma. I would recommend photos without a model just because a potential customer may be sensitive.

  10. I do not need to see a foot in a shoe to know if I like it or not. Just my 2 cents!

  12. A model--wearing stockings!--wouldn't bother me a bit, but I don't think it's entirely necessary.
