STARBREAKER...finished!

A lot of studs.
A lot of chains.
A lot of work at all.

Since several years STARBREAKER is my main vest. There are several (sub) genres on it, but basicly it is rock/heavy metal.
My alltime Top-20 most listened bands are on it, so, this vest is quite exactly my basic music taste. Plus the idea to make a 100% seen live bands front.

All 30 bands on the front i have seen live. Wrote them on the inside. Still counting...(Current count: 96 times)
Front pockets are full usable. Sewed chains and patches from the inner pocket + stud there, too.
The smallest studs are 5 milimetres only. Studding them around the 6 circles on the back took about 7 hours for those ~300 studs...The chains around Rush and Kadavar..each one about 1 hour...Purple and Sabbath, too...and the other chains...too^^ Sewed stars with silver thread...
More than 2000 studs in total.
Yes, its crazy. But it was it all worth.

Beautiful!! The inner part with the band list looks like a scroll.
10/10 perfection

Seen this vest before, fantastic dedication, meticulous craftmanship, layout, mirroring of patches! I like the inside scroll/pergament idea a lot. Nice work with the chains at the opening of the bottom front pockets as well.

and again absolutely stunning. the amount of work you must had adding all those chains and studs so accurate.. its insane. the outcome is superb. without a doubt. also the fact you managed to stay the front pockets usable.. thats truly impressive. bands, patches, layout and the overall look of the vest.. I cant give nothing less than full flames for this entry.
