Hi!
I was wonderin if you guys know what kind of paint/color is used for drawing
on leather jacket?
I was plannin to draw an anthrax logo, in white, on the back of my jacked but
i'm not sure what to do it with, so that the logo stays on.
I saw that many of you have some "airbrushed" or whatever, x) pictures on the
back of your jackets, but i never remember to ask what do you use as a color?
Don't get pissed off if this topic already exists! And thanks in advance :P

I painted Paradox logo on my leather jacket's back with acrylic paint (meant for miniatures) and it's still there in a good shape. Acrylic paint can be diluted with water so it's easy to use, but become water resistant when completely dry. I just used it because I've plenty of it already so choose what Supoxi suggested.

Enamel works great

if you plan to use white acrylic paint .. or any white paint in general mostly, dont forget to thin it down with water a bit

My friend uses these paint markers. He did a Carcass logo & a giant Midnight bell. Both of them came out spectacular. Also, they don't bleed, or flake off or anything, but he has had to touch up Carcass because the red faded a bit.
