About Custom Hand-Painted Accessories
What I Do
I’m Rahul, and I take your favorite high-end accessories and turn them into wearable art. If you’ve seen my custom kicks, you know I don’t mess around with detail. Now, I’m doing the same for your bags, wallets, and card holders. If you want your luxury gear to stand out, that’s where I come in.
What I Paint On
- Designer bags and backpacks - Louis Vuitton, Goyard, and more
- Wallets, card holders, pretty much any premium accessory you want to make your own
How It Works
Your idea, my paintbrush. You bring me the concept - could be a pet’s portrait, anime scene, or just something that speaks to you. We figure out the design together so it actually fits the item. Then I go in with Angelus paints and get every detail right. Once done, I seal everything with a pro-grade matte finisher so you can actually use your stuff without worrying.
Some Past Projects
- Painted a 17-year-old LV bag with a Zen tigress and custom monograms. Super nerve-wracking, but the result was wild.
- Turned a client’s LV backpack into a Studio Ghibli tribute with glow-in-the-dark details and hidden characters.
- Done loads of custom pet portrait accessories - turning a Goldendoodle’s curls or a Shih Tzu’s tiny face into art on a wallet is a challenge, but I’m here for it.
If you want your own hand-painted designer bags or something like an anime art wallet customization, let’s talk. You bring the vision, I’ll bring the paint.

My Story
Yo, I’m the one behind Unhinged Customs. Been painting kicks and art for almost 10 years now, but trust me, every wild idea still makes me sweat a bit. First time I painted a Louis Vuitton bag? Shaking, bro. But once I’m painting, I just vibe out. Seeing my Ghibli-inspired stuff in Japan or making a Zenitsu pair for a fellow fan – that’s the good stuff. I’m all about bringing your favourite characters and moments to life, straight onto what you wear.
My Work
Custom hand-painted sneakers, bags, wallets - I paint whatever you dream up – anime, comics, F1, music – on your kicks or gear.
Pop culture wearable art for fans - If you love Demon Slayer, Deadpool, or Pink Floyd, I’m your guy. Fan to fan, I get it.
Crazy details, hidden stories - We can geek out on tiny stuff, like a Zenitsu lightning or a McLaren swoosh. It’s all about you.
Easy process, wild results - Just DM me your idea. I’ll help shape it into a custom piece you’ll actually want to wear.
