Chucks for Fiver!
Ok, after a great response to my off-the-cuff request for custom Chuck Taylors for Mel, I have decided to make this my main avenue for gathering items for the ALS Charity Auction at DragonCon this year!
Here's the deal - You find an artist that's willing to decorate some Converse Sneakers for charity, and I will provide the shoes. The finished products will be up for sale at the DragonCon Charity Auction on Sunday, September 2nd. All proceeds will go to the ALS Association of Georgia, Melissa's charity.
If you've ever met Melissa, she was probably wearing her Converse:
(You get the point. It's pretty much all she wears.)
Details: If you can provide the shoes, great, but if not, let me know what color you need and I'll send them to you. Art guidelines: Subject matter is fairly open, but cartoons are probably easiest. Some of Melissa's favorite things are : Lord of the Rings, Disney Movies, Studio Ghibli movies (Totoro, Castle in the Sky, Porco Rosso, etc.), Calvin & Hobbes, Anime Characters (Emma, Deathnote, Fruits Basket, Robotech, Kyo Kara Maoh), and "How to Train Your Dragon". Or if you want to go wild with your own design, even better! (Just keep it PG-13, ok?)
All right, artists and knowers-of-artists! Go to it and let's awesome up some Chucks!
