The message of this article is - use the best tool for the job. In this case, it's certainly not Photo$hop. This type of work is much easier in NX2.

They do not work, if they do, they would cripple her. That is the reason why she is laying down. Have you notice that all photos that show models (specially fashion magazines photos) with extreme stilettos, models are sitted or laying on a sofa, but rarely standing or walking? It hurts just to see them on those shoes.

The shoes is exactly the same unique design concept as the Hasselblad Stellar RX100. It's all in the wood. Woodn't you agree?
