This is my completed pair of Paul Stanley "75" ALIVE! Boots. They were a pair of black ROC branded boots, that I bought on eBay for somewhere around $20 plus postage.
I decided a few weeks ago that I'd actually take the plunge and repaint/modify the boots. So after some careful masking, I sprayed the heel, platform, toe and tongue with silver leather paint, then hand masked and hand painted(With a tiny brush) the silver stars on the side.....I finished these today, total time excluding drying was around 3 hours. Total cost..... less than $50aus.
Yep, Thrifty Curt is Thrifty! Now I gotta do the full costume, which thank got is pretty simple. Just a sleeveless, open chested bodysuit, with silver stars studded with rhinestones, fingerless elbow length gloves and then the make up I should have that done for under $100 too

How big is your budget? I know a few stores up here that have contacts for around $50. I get them for Mr. Lordi and they're pretty good.
It should look pretty neat. I don't really have anywhere planned for this, I just wanted to finally finish my boots, and now doing a full costume looks like a good idea, seeing as the hardest and most expensive part is already done.
