Vest Overhaul

HeathenThroneThu, 23/12/2010 - 20:07

So I wasnt happy with the front of my vest, so I decided to take everything off and re-arrange so things look better. Plus I changed my backpatch : )

*** EDIT: Thanks to CryptKeeper for taking the time for doing a visual suggestion for my Moonsorrow and Sepultura back patches, and I really liked the idea, so here it is.

-The Motorhead patch has been removed.
-I've added better pics, sorry for the screw up.

Battle Jacket

Not for sale or trade

Year: 2010

I uploaded it right side up, dont know why the front shot is sideways...

ManOboy on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 20:26

cool vest, but dude... you mutilated that motorhead patch....

samsonthrash on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 20:44

i agree

metalhead12 on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 21:31

Same here, but i think the front looks cool!

The vest with most updates!!!

CryptKeeper on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 20:56

I don't know... I really don't like the vertical Moonsorrow and Sepultura patches...

If you want to put on that many giant logo patches (which is actually cool because hardly anyone does that), you should figure out a way to put them on horizontally (or at least crooked at about 45° or so, but not 90°).

I'd try something like on this vest http://www.tshirtslayer.com/item/battlejacket-0 and put two giant patches above each other on both sides of the vest.

Oh, I just had a great idea: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/7042/vestback0.jpg (didn't take me long, btw)

HeathenThrone on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 22:02

That is a sick idea! Consider it done. Youll probably see another update today. THANK YOU!

CryptKeeper on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 01:16

No problem, I like to help. And you apparently like sewing! ^^ Already updated. Not the back looks really great, the front already did, so you just earned 2 more flames from me, 5/5!

Well it's not perfect yet, but I suppose the free space on the back will be filled up in no-time. And then it will be perfect, great work!

HeathenThrone on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 02:32

Filled up in no time? You know me too well : ) And I was kinda on a roll with sewing, I had been going all day and I was ready to do more lol.

CryptKeeper on Wed, 05/01/2011 - 11:46

Yeah, I know how it is! :D

ManOboy on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 21:04

i mean everything on there is cool ( to much folk metal for me though) but thwy would you color a perfectly awsome motorhead patch red and blue... ya killed it bro

HeathenThrone on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 22:00

I didnt color it, my intoxicated roomate did. I made him pay me 10$ because that's what it cost. I might replace it.

HeathenThrone on Thu, 23/12/2010 - 22:04

It's really annoying, they dont have that in stock anymore. Long story, I forgave him lol.

CryptKeeper on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 01:13

I think it looks kinda funny with the colors! ^^

CryptKeeper on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 01:51

BTW just an idea... Try uploading the pix turned 90° to the right, maybe they will be turned 90° to the left again when uploaded, to that they are normal in the end!

metalhead12 on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 02:20

YA! Definatley better! GJ MAN!

samsonthrash on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 02:43

If you have Paint, you can open your picture on there then go to Image tab then Flip/Rotate tab then click on Rotate by angle to 90 degrees or whatever degree to get your picture straight

HeathenThrone on Fri, 24/12/2010 - 05:25

Thanks for the comments! And thanks again CryptKeeper for giving ke the patch move idea! Now I think the back looks alot less rediculous and maybe I can fit that Celtic Frost Embroidered back patch that Ive alwaye wanted... Probably not. : )

CryptKeeper on Wed, 05/01/2011 - 11:46

Not just "less ridiculous", now it looks really perfect. And unique, because hardly anyone has so many huge patches.

ShieldbitersValhalla on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 00:23

Haha, thats a way to solve the Ensiferum BP problem. Ensiferum should make large logo patches like that! I need to learn how to sew.

HeathenThrone on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 02:30

Yeah I figured I would cut it out, because I love Ensiferum, but I really just wanted a logo patch, so I made one out of my scrapped back patch. I had to do a lot of extra stitching on it though, to keep it from fraying.

ManOboy on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 02:32

i give you the award of most jacket updates in 48 hours! congradulations!!! how do you feel?

HeathenThrone on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 03:14

Thanks! Except it was all within one update, I just changed the pics lol.

Skunkspritz on Sat, 25/12/2010 - 03:11

I think I seen this vest more then once?
Oh well this is pretty badass!

Stronthor on Sun, 26/12/2010 - 14:45

Not that many bands I'm into, but I like your vest a lot. Especially the back, the diagonally placed backpatches really make it stand out. Nice work, 5 flames!

HeathenThrone on Sun, 26/12/2010 - 15:24

Thanks man! All thanks to cryptkeeper!

HeathenThrone on Sun, 26/12/2010 - 23:31

Im going to hopefully squeeze a 45 degree large Anthrax, and Drudkh patches on there above moonsorrow and sepultura. Gonna be a struggle, but whatever. Also an anthrax embroidered patch and Celtic Frost patches coming in the mail. Xmas money ftw.
