very nice and very eye catching but one small thing - the left boot does not seem to fit on the leg as well as the right one does. The right seems to be prity much flush against the leg.

very nice anyway

this one looks at lot better but that left boot (righthand side of image) still looks abit off. The rest of the image is fine.

My girl friend said that with boots you do have some over hand on one side but it still looks like its on both sides here and the boot is still abit thin, but that may be the whole leg above the foot not just the boot.

And is the cable surposed to look as if its cut off ? (the thicker one).

I'll edit the boot more. I see what you mean now about the narrowness. The cut of cable is actually a whip. I should probably make that more obvious somehow.
