Judas Priest British Steel

Koolg71Sun, 27/02/2022 - 08:03

My latest project i call 'British Steel'. It's mostly a NWOBHM dedication jacket but with Judas Priest as the main back patch. I chose to go with Screaming for Vengeance as that was the very first Lp i ever owned as a rocker kid turned Metal Head when it first came out. All the others are the main NWOBHM bands i got into early on. I decided to layer it with the British Flag as the background and tried to keep it simple and not clutter it with a bunch of patches. I have a bunch of buttons i will put on but haven't decided which ones just yet, and maybe will throw some studs onto it, but otherwise i think i'm happy with the overall look and feel \m/

Awesome!!! The Iron Maiden in the back is the best thing on this one, a very unique piece.

I've never seen a patch like that before period, it looks dope

Agree! The most unique oldschool patch that I've ever seen so far

Oh yeah, full flames for this bad ass project! Always really cool to see people pay tribute to (in my opinion) the most important movement in metal history!

Killer! Flying the NWOBHM flag and the one of the small island where it started! Creative and cool!

Thanks fellas! Yeah I feel the NWOBHM is one of the most important movements ever, especially for Metal, and certainly paved the way for me and so many others in our youth to fly the Metal flag, so a hearty cheers to all of them! \m/

Great jacket!

🔥🔥🔥🤘🥵🤘🔥🔥🔥 WOW! For a future project I was also thinking of doing a NWOBHM dedication, and this jacket will be a huge inspiration. You have the finest patches on it, and I love it that you didn't settle for one back patch but two 🤘😄🤘 One can never go wrong with a Screaming for Vengeance back patch, but to have it topped off with Maidens first 'Roadie' back patch is amazing 🤘😫🤘
I also love it how you let the patches speak for themselves. Personally I'm not big fan of the overcrowded German style, so I love to see this 'minimalist' approach but with the hottest patches out there...Run to the Hills(!), Spellbound(!), Borrowed Time(!), Maiden Roadie back patch(!)...Thanks for sharing this mate 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
