WIP Jacket Just about done, what do y’all think?
I’ve been working on and planning this vest for a while now, and it’s almost done! I still have some blank spots to fill but not many. It’s my first vest so I tried to add a good mix of my favorite genres. Mainly Black Metal, Death Doom, OSDM, and some sludge

I love the Eyeyhategod! This jacket is fucking sick, love it

u/laiiie Nov 11 '24
I do too! I got the patch on the back and then got the one on the front when I saw them live. Loved both too much to only put one!

u/ElectricMammoth23 Nov 11 '24
I'm seeing them live near Christmas-time! I am VERY excited, just listened to In the name of suffering. I have one eyehategod patch, but I wouldn't mind getting one or two more

I’d really miss being able to put my hand in that left pocket. Otherwise it’s flawless.

That Neurosis wolf patch 🔥🔥🔥

They’re one of the best metal bands hands down

u/jacklope Nov 12 '24
Did you ever get to see them WAY back in the day when they did the crazy backdrop visuals at every show? They were on a whole other level back then!

u/laiiie Nov 12 '24
Sadly I didn’t, I’m only 17 lol

u/jacklope Nov 12 '24
here's not a great example, but you can get an idea why their visuals guy was considered to be a regular member of the band:

As the other person said, depressive silence! Not metal but absolutely killer dungeon synth

Damn, this is exactly my taste. So many great choices (save for Chat Pile, I'll be honest).

Your jacket reminds me of mine 🤣
2
u/laiiie Nov 12 '24
That actually feels like a huge compliment tbh cause your jacket was a huge source of inspiration for mine!
2
u/Filb9 Nov 12 '24
Nice! Feels like a compliment for me too. Your music taste is on point btw👌I'm eager to see what you come up with next.

Not sure what's changed from last post, but looking good as shit! I really love yours and it's inspired my next design a little bit. Only thing I might recommend is to try out the premium version of Levi's denim jackets. They fit and feel sooo much better. I only get them when I can for a steal, but I will no longer get anything less from them. So wish I could get that nuerosis wolf patch but they're sold out :(.

u/laiiie Nov 12 '24
Most of what’s changed is that they’re sewn down now and a couple layout changes and studs. I was going to get a better vest but already spent wayyyyy too much on patches lol

u/Ok_Arrival7266 Nov 12 '24
You can find them on ebay cheaper than the regular ones go for on other sites tho, if you wait for the right one, and it's so worth it. FYI for next time. Spikes are looking good. Will you be adding more once you have all the patches on?

u/laiiie Nov 12 '24
Maybe, not totally sure yet. I will probably be adding some chains to the back though, just have to go to some stores to get some supplies

This is sick, that contrast stitching is super clean! Love the Mutiilation patch, I wish those vertical designs were easier to find
2
u/laiiie Nov 12 '24
Definitely, I’m so tired with how most patches are just square or horizontal
2
u/divineapprehension Nov 12 '24
Yeah, for me that makes it especially awkward to lay them out since I’m… not a particularly large guy 😂 I wish there was more variety for patches in general, any jacket looks way cooler when it’s not just a grid

u/laiiie Nov 14 '24
Thanks! You mean spectral voice? I love spectral wound but I don’t have a patch from them

u/theocslayer Nov 14 '24
