It appears that Art Amela is a recruiter for a company called generator group...I saw the e-mail address and googled it...

Edgar, what programs do you use for your renderings. I can see the CG quality to the Hurricanes and the Ferrari's but those Lebrons look insane!!! They look like theyre already in production!

Congratulations Pietro! Sorry I took so long to reply. I have been so busy at work and just now discovered your story. It has been an amazing road for all of us coming up from the trenches of Niketalk and being recognized by people from all corners of the world for our talents. P- you especially have worked so hard to perfect not only your renderings, but your thought processes and layouts as well. Your dedication and love shows through in your work. I think it's obvious you have a bright future ahead of you and I hope to see you designing professionally SOON! -TH

Congrats are in order! Great write up PP. I know you will not let up with your dedication and work ethic, and that is a lot of what it takes to make it. I'm sure we will be seeing you on this side of the shoe game in the future. Good luck and good work!

Zen: ...well, I can say you developed much quicker than me!!!
Beside this, it's a hard not considering you as a brotha since we walked side to side for long time even if separated from a few thousend miles :), really hope to meet you soon!

Thomas Le - Archeever: I also remember you and your fantastic stuff on NT...you also have been one of the first persons to give me feedback and heat (you and Tony), so, my credit with you is still open...thank you!!!

DALLAS: thanks for your words!!!! As everyone I have no idea about what my future will be, if it will be in footwear design very good!!! If it will be other way, no problem...as it's been said, it's not important the place where you head to but the travel itself is your reward...my travel is already fantastic...MJ judged my dunks, I had the chance to exchange messages with the best deisgners in the world, I had a few pairs of free kicks, I had my own fans (I seem the clone of Forrest Gump rather than Matrix hero Neo..:))...What I can ask more?

Pietro dood, you totally deserve all that you have and will get in the future. You always come and show your hard work and passion through the amazing consistentcy that you are prove month after month. Another thing that sets you apart from a lot of the other designer styles is how you use a more vectorized look to your renderings. tight like a tiger. It is truely an honour and amazing that our stories can be side by side. i guess you can say that we developed at the same pace...so you truely are my brotha!! anyhoots, im sure we will be meeting up in the near future and finally meet face to face. hope you are doing super great man. congrats again.

Great stuff Pietro. I didnt know much about you, but its def nice to read that piece. I remember some of your first renderings on NT, like the electro shox. Youve definitely have come a long way. I love the albatross, something about that dipped ankle that is just beautiful. Keep up the good work.

min: that is a very nice design. the rendering looks a little flat near the heel but overall a very appealing concept. i do not understand the need for the strap behind the ankle though, could you explain? keep it up!
