Adrian goes about his exploration as if there weren't a cute pair of shoes on his feet but I'm very pleased with the results. He wouldn't even hold still for me to get a good shot of the shoes in action. This is the best I could get :



Alright, now I'm going to go make more shoes to match all his outfits :)
