Mortician Battle Vest

KorbaWed, 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!

looks solid mate! great placement of that TSHIRTSLAYER patch :)

Korba on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 21:42

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

Envenometal on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 21:54

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 on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 22:08

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

Envenometal on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 22:17

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

Korba on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 22:18

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

Envenometal on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 22:25

Thank you very much! I'm glad if you like them.

Korba on Wed, 11/09/2024 - 22:36

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 on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 00:18

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

Dante

Thanks for the compliment, mate! \m/

MortalCoil138 on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 00:04

Where did you get that Gruesome oversize? is it printed or woven?

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 00:19

This is simply a cut woven PTPP backpatch :)

MortalCoil138 on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 01:50

Thanks

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 00:20

... just like Blood Incantation on the other side.

David Bartels on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 00:25

Sick! Great vest dude!

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 01:42

Thank you so much man! Glad you like it.

EvilJay on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 01:47

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

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 10:41

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 on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 16:18

Thank you! :)

Midwesterntrendkill on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 01:51

Goddamn this is gnarly!

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 10:44

Cheers mate! 🤘

Seb Jester on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 12:05

piece of art, great kutte! congratulations!

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:29

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 on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:36

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

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:42

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

Seb Jester on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:56

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.

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 20:42

Sounds great! Good luck

The Lonely Long... on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 12:36

Mind-blowing.

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:31

Thank you very much mate. I'm glad you like it!

Kalta on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 14:41

Dayyyyyyyyyyyyym thats a killer vest dude \m/

Korba on Thu, 12/09/2024 - 15:34

🙂 This kind of feedback makes me very happy. Cheers dude! 🙌

Ha ha ha, thanks!

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

Korba on Sat, 14/09/2024 - 18:48

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 on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 07:47

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

Korba on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 21:23

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 on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 21:24

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 on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 21:43

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

kingdomofhannover on Sun, 29/12/2024 - 22:41

Still looking at this vest sometimes. So much afford in here, so well thought. Wear it proudly mate!

Korba on Mon, 30/12/2024 - 15:35

That's exactly what I do from time to time: I look through my favorite vests made by others.
Thanks again for the nice comments. And all the best in the new year!

shaqhyman on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 13:01

Korba on Sun, 15/09/2024 - 21:28

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

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!

Korba on Mon, 16/09/2024 - 21:41

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 on Mon, 16/09/2024 - 21:42

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

Velkaarn

on Mon, 16/09/2024 - 23:59

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

youthattack on Mon, 16/09/2024 - 17:52

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

Korba on Mon, 16/09/2024 - 21:43

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

Memoniaco on Wed, 18/09/2024 - 08:31

One of the best I've ever seen!

Korba on Wed, 18/09/2024 - 14:43

Thanks! :)

TaxidermiedClown on Sun, 22/09/2024 - 15:30

Fucking awesome man! Especially dig the shoulders!

Korba on Sun, 22/09/2024 - 21:38

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

Alienhabibti on Mon, 21/10/2024 - 05:06

Incredible

Korba on Mon, 21/10/2024 - 12:44

Thank you very much and good luck with your first vest!

Throneofvomit on Wed, 20/11/2024 - 11:53

Tight as piss. This vest fuckin slays

Korba on Wed, 20/11/2024 - 22:10

Thank you for your kind words.
"Tight as piss"? - well said! You can always count on your fellow TSS members to help you learn English ;)

ChainsawHemicor... on Wed, 20/11/2024 - 22:39

I absolutely love the color coordination and attention to detail, especially the way that the coffin patches circulate together on both sides of the back! This screams quality! Truly belongs in a museum.

Korba on Thu, 21/11/2024 - 00:45

Man, this is probably my favorite comment posted here! I'll have to save it somewhere as a motivator for the future;) It's nice when someone appreciates the effort you put into a vest. Greetings from (currently cold) Poland. Have a nice evening!

ChainsawHemicor... on Thu, 21/11/2024 - 01:05

You have a nice evening as well, my friend! Stay warm! :D

Lusse on Thu, 21/11/2024 - 00:53

Fucking A mate! Brilliant work!

Korba on Thu, 21/11/2024 - 10:09

Thanks for your positive feedback!

Lusse on Thu, 21/11/2024 - 20:09

It seems to fit you perfectly as well! 😎🤘

Korba on Fri, 22/11/2024 - 02:35

I confirm, ha ha.

endingquest05 on Sun, 24/11/2024 - 10:08

Fucking incredible

Korba on Sun, 24/11/2024 - 14:12

Thanks man! 🤘

Korba on Fri, 03/01/2025 - 14:40

I'm glad you like my vest :) Those two patches you mentioned are among my favorites! Unfortunately, they're not easy to get these days... Cheers!
