Forgotten Woods 3rd Vest, version 1.1

Mon, 09/09/2024 - 09:03

My 3rd vest, currently surviving but being partially dismantled since I am not happy with the hasty finish I did in May to be able to wear it to Steelfest. I decided I'll stick to the theme of "Northern desolation" meaning b/w patches of Nordic bands, mainly black metal and preferably cold, grim and ugly. Will also tolerate melancholic, moody and self-destructive too. Bonus if woods, forests, marshes, wastelands and whatnot are featured.

I'm also trying to improve the lay-out so some patches get axed for that. I really want to keep Over the Voids... and Moonblood even if they don't really exactly fit my self-imposed restrictions. Honorary Nordics? I would also reposition Manes, if it wasn't such a hassle.

Awesome layout! Don't see a lot of WoI patches, reminds me that I need one too! Front and back look wicked!

Thank you! Yeah, too little WoI around definitely, makes me salty to think about the patch I lost with the old vest.

I'm redoing this currently, mostly just replacing patches and changing the front a bit. I think I'll keep the overall look similar.

Looks great, do you remember where you got your Forgotten Woods patches at?

Thanks and sure; backpatch from Ketzer Records (didn't see it there anymore last time I checked their store), tombstone one from bhmoxm666.bigcartel.com - it's still available, and the third one (Sjel av natten, made by The Beyond) can also be found there, though mine was purchased from Sarvilevyt.

I think you can find a version of the symbol backpatch in eBay if you search, I've seen it there. Good luck!
