Yep, the shoe had a TON of support (more than the material, actually), though I never included a photo. Stratasys printers are great in that the support is soluble, so you can just throw it in a base bath rather than manually remove it.

Yep, conductive paint would work well. As would conductive filament. The reason I tried this was because I wanted to see if the acetone in the acetone-graphite solution would work as as adhesive to the ABS print. It worked well, but I agree there other options out there which may work better!
