It’s made up of a lot of bands and albums I like. Nothing really more to say than just that haha. I tried to make sure most of the denim was covered and to also make sure all band logos are still visible. There’s only a few band logos on patches that are obscured by other patches but the majority of the logo is still readable, like Morticians or Excruciates for example. I also wanted to make sure that the main focus of the cover art was still shown, which I think I can check that off as a successful attempt at doing so for all the patches there. I still plan on adding more pins to this and possibly adding patches to the exposed denim that’s between the oversized Broken Hope and circle patches on the upper back but that’ll be a challenge to find patches that fit there. Thank you to all who I have bought patches from and traded with to make this happen as I wouldn’t have gotten the patches any other way! That’s all I have to write about this in the description so I hope this is a cool addition to the ever growing library of battle jackets on this site!
I couldn’t list all the bands in the band section so here’s the remaining ones: Sextrash, Sigh, Skinless, Sodom, Soulreaper, Succubus, Suffocation, Terrorizer, Thron, Undergang, Venom, Worm, Writhing, Xenomorph

Love the puzzle, you know a lot.
Are we seriously fucking around about how we sew the patches? Machine ain't easier sometimes, gets it clean though.
gorestar on
Thank you bro!

Oh, some people are jelly because they can't use or even afford a sewing machine, acting like they only use hammer and chisel like our ancestors did attaching their patches to their furs, ja?

I could never use a sewing machine. Not because I’m against sewing machines but because every time I use it on patches I end up damaging them 💀
Nice vest mate 🤘 what happened to the other one you were wearing in MDF or is this the same one?
gorestar on
I’ve damaged a few patches before, not from using the sewing machine but trying to take patches off that have been machine sewed on 😰 To get them off without any damage, its like a 30-45 minute process of delicately using a seam ripper underneath the patch inside the jacket and getting everything from there 😅
And thanks man! This is a different one, I finished this like a day before I posted it so its a more recent finished project. The vest I wore to MDF is done as well but I have yet to post it, I’ll think about posting it eventually as I wear it the most to shows 😁

Dude i feel that i bought a vest off ebay once that had a bunch of patches i wanted on it and they were all machine sewn shit literally took hours.
gorestar on
Oh man that sounds like hell getting all those patches off. I struggle just to do 3-4 at times, I can’t imagine going through a whole jacket with machine sewed patches and making sure they aren’t damaged 😭

Truly amazing ! Lots of great stuff here, and the pins scattered throughout as well, awesome. It really is a work of art, many hours involved. Fantastic job. Congrats.
gorestar on
Thanks man! I can’t remember how long it took to find the layout and to sew everything but it was a long journey for sure haha
