Mercyful Fate battle jacket

I'm not that stoked about the Grotesque backshape honestly. i plan to put something else there, it just can't seem to come up with anything that works for that area. i have plenty of patches but i can't seem to find an acceptable arrangement for that area. i've got some pins and badges and things that i need to put on too. oh, one interesting feature, and i apologize in advance for the people who will be turned off by this. a friend of mine gave me this SS pin, i can't believe that it's authentic but my friend thinks it might be. it has the SS moto in German, "my honor is loyalty". i'm not Nazi or a Nazi sympathizer or anything, and i should probably be more consciensious about stuff like that. i used to be but now... not sure what happened... it's not a huge deal as long as i'm not flaunting it in the face of holocaust survivors or something. the SS pin is above the reign in blood patch.

Not bad. That is one smaaall jacket haha. Judging by the shine and the fact that your friend simply gave it to you is enough to make me believe that it's not authentic. What makes you not like the Grotesque backshape? I think it would look a little better if you had some small black/white shaped logos to go around it.

thanks. i dunno, i like it, i love the band, i think i'm eventially going to try to cover that space with some woven patches. i just couldn't find a layout that i was happy with and i was tired of not having anything there. plus i'm not real pleased with the way that part looks when i'm wearing it, but my hair pretty much covers it anyway.
the SS pin looks authentic, i'll post a close up, it's reflecting light so that's why it looks so bright, but it isn't super shiny. I have a hard time believing that it's authentic too though.

This vest fucking kills. And I too, like the Grotesque patch. It fits that top space well. Myself, I rarely put anything up there, my hair covers it, and I feel like Im wasting a patch doing that.
About the SS totenkopf pin...Ive seen tons of originals as well as remakes of those at gun shows, military collectors places, etc. If it looks too shiny and new, then it probably is. The originals Ive seen have a certain look about them; like you can tell theyre old.
