Mortician Battle Vest

Korba
Wed, 11/09/2024 - 18:21

Over the years I have accumulated several vests/jackets, which are in various stages of completion or decomposition. This is my main vest - more or less finished (at least for now ;)

It has undergone a total reconstruction in recent years. There's practically nothing left of the previous incarnation of the vest except the denim itself. Along the way I cut off the sleeves, the chest pockets, took out a large part of the studs, leaving behind holes visible from the inside, as a “memento”. New layout, new patches, same musical taste ;)

There are over 80 patches, few pins, and studs on the shoulders. There are no two patches of the same band except for Mortician and Impetigo, which I put on both the front and back, once as a large logo and the other time as a small woven patch. As we know, you can never have too much Mortician and Impetigo… Ah, and there are also two Vaders on the upper part of the back;) Notice the Tshirtslayer logo which I wear with pride - thanks Doc! Patches are woven and embroidered only. Sewing is by hand, with some shaping of the patches.

I will probably change or add something in the future, but for now I'm satisfied. Hope you like it too!

Thanks! It's one of the most important patches on this vest 🙂

I really like the arrangement of the coffin-shaped patches at the back.
I would possibly fill in the gaps at the Impetigo on the shoulders with studs, just a thought from me.

Korba's picture

Man, that's a really good idea. Thanks for the suggestion, I might do that.

Envenometal's picture

With pleasure!
I think it would look best if you used relatively small studs.
Hey, thanks for favoriting my vest!

Wooow, your vests are awesome. I just saw them on your account. Respect!

They are simply masterpieces, especially the one with the Venom backpatch. It's easy to see how much work you put into it.

Excellent work! I especially love the symmetry on the back!

Korba's picture

That's a big compliment, especially from you who made such an epic vest. Cheers!

Korba's picture

This is simply a cut woven PTPP backpatch :)

Very appealing visually, this somehow connects to my childhood comic book appreciation, used to collect them too. Love it!

5
Korba's picture

Many thanks! The vest is indeed a bit "cartoonish". I hadn't noticed it before, but it's apparently so :) Like your vest too!

EvilJay's picture

Thank you! :)

Thank you for your kind words. I feel honored that you appreciate my work, as you have some of the greatest vests here on TSS.

Seb Jester's picture

Thank you mate. Glad you like my vest.
i actually work on a new one

5
Korba's picture

Wow, I can't wait to see the result. What's the current progress? Setting the layout or are you already sewing?

Seb Jester's picture

The shoulders are done. I'm sewing the chest right now. The layout is not finished, I'm progressing as I go.
It's a multi-tribute jacket of the legends of hard and heavy. My favorite all time bands.

The Clairvoyant's picture

Outstanding! Somehow symmetrical and chaotic at the same time. Not an easy effect to achieve. Great work. 🔥 🤘

5
Korba's picture

Thanks! Your vests look great too! It's nice that you publish upgrades, one can follow the evolution of vest. And congrats on getting the shield ;)

kingdomofhannover's picture

Unique and very nice layout mate. Those coffins on the back look amazing! Full flames of course!

5
Korba's picture

Thank you very much! I'm glad you appreciate the layout. It really took a lot of time to develop. There were mamy changes along the way.

Korba's picture

I will also admit that I have been a fan of your vest since I joined TSS. I have just added the latest version to my favorites. I must have missed it somehow, because the two previous updates of your vests were already on my list ;)

kingdomofhannover's picture

Thanks for your Kind words mate, glad you like it. Cheers!

shaqhyman's picture

fucking thing looks rad as hell bro nice work

Korba's picture

Thanks man! ... or should I say shaqhyman ;)

Velkaarn's picture

Amazing work, I especially enjoy the back with the dual Vaders and the coffin patches. I also like how the split Impetigo has some room around it to ooze. Obviously full flames!

5
Korba's picture

It's nice that you pay attention to such details! As for Vaders, in Poland it is of course a cult band, and I was once fascinated with 'Star Wars';)

Korba's picture

I saw your post with the lost vest. Hope it returns to you one day...

Velkaarn's picture

Thanks, so do I. It was a poorly made and messy, but had both sentimental and some concrete value to me.

Absolutely sick. I've got that Impetigo patch on a bucket hat haha. Love how you put in on both shoulders.

5
Korba's picture

Impetigo bucket hat? Sounds like a good idea! Ha ha

Memoniaco's picture

One of the best I've ever seen!

Thanks! :)

TaxidermiedClown's picture

Fucking awesome man! Especially dig the shoulders!

Korba's picture

Thanks! Appreciate your kind words. The shoulder section is probably my favorite part:)
