Coop's kustom boots
Artist Coop hired a bootmaker named Pascal ("whose scary biker/headbanger look is mere protective coloration to hide this true nature, that of an old-world artist and craftsman of the highest order") to make a pair of amazing boots for him.
LinkWanting something unique that would truly showcase Pascal's talents, I asked for a design featuring Baphomet, the goat-headed deity supposedly worshipped by the Knights Templar. I dug around until I found a nice copy of the famous engraving of Baphomet created by Eliphas Levi, and we were off.
