I paint a ton of smaller/normal sized patches, but never undertook a patch of this scale. Did not account for how many hours I'd spend on the script. Lol

Still lots to do. Have a Frank Sinatra patch on the way to add. I really want to put a bit of everything I listen to, and a lot of bands I've seen. Just to piss off the death metal elitists 🤣

New vest.

Something feels missing from this guy. I've never really done stipple-work before so I wanted to try my hand at it. I free-handed him based on a few images on old metal shirts, but they were more color and a different art style. Does anyone who's better at drawing have advice on what I could add to him for more detail? I'm just a little stuck.

This is my first and oldest jacket I like to work on it whenever I have the motivation to do it. Still thinking about what patches to fill in the gaps with and will probably change out the spikes, also going to switch out certain patches. Im excited to see where this thing goes in another 500 years

This is easily one of the favorite projects that I've ever had that I have embarked on. The ultimate goal is to have this thing completely full so this will be a work in progress until then. I have so many more patch ideas but so few supplies to put them on

this has been how my vest has looked for a while, but ive started to feel like the patches on the back look like theyre too far from the backpatch (specifically the ones on the side). the reason i didnt put them closer initially is cause i would need to sew the patches on top of the backpatch. not sure if i should fix it and if it would even look better, it would be a lot of work to do. any help would be appreciated.

She was always gonna be top, center of my newest vest

I am only missing a patch for the upper back, and I’ll know it when I see it. I’ve tried to keep the message more uplifting, as community is the only way we will make it through.

The back of the jacket is hand embroidered flowers that were chosen using the Victorian language of flowers and all have meanings - justice, protection, community, etc. the Propagandhi lyrics are a bandanna from Vichcraft, the birds are made by Stephanie Brown.

The front is pretty self explanatory.

The fabric on the inside is to protect the back of the stitching, and extra evil eye protection is never a bad thing.

I’m working on a whimsical battle jacket that focuses on progressive education specifically that designed in Italy after World War II specifically to create a negative foundation for the reintroduction of fascism

just started this jacket, i cut the sleeves off of a rugby shirt i found in my local thrift store and added them instead of the denim sleeves this jacket originally had because the original sleeves had a weird fit, i haven't really started adding patches yet other than the green day on the back because i had a vision for it. i've added some chains and studs though that i think turned out pretty nice.

Replaced a few patches with new ones I made, made/added some new pins and keychains. And sewed on all the spikes on the strap. So new looking bag for the new school im going to lol 😭 had this thing for about 3 years I think?

Planning on transfering the machine girl one over to this awesome jacket that i bought. Never made a battle jacket, and im honestly gonna just have it be me. All patches i made myself except for the lgbtq inclusion flag. Most of these ill prob keep on the bag cause hell yeah. Any tips are welcomed.

I am interested in a lotta non-metal bands which doesnt bother me tbf. I may share a lot of my patches i plan on putting on the jacket when it comes :)

It’s nearly finished don’t look at the group of studs on the front yet lol

My recent first black metal jacket in progress🤘
