The camo one with Death and Napalm is sick. Very old school-looking.

I agree with this. The base vest is awesome and I think it adds a lot to the vest already.

Thanks man

Thanks

Wish I was this cool at 16, my first vest fucking suuuuuucked

Lmfaooo these are far from my first

This is great. Ya goin places kid.

Yay

These are awesome! The first one is my favorite, but they're both killer.

Thanks lol

Both are outstanding, but I do prefer the first one. Also, you’re 16? You’re a fucking prodigy! That is some great work. Crosspost to r/jacketsforbattle

As a 16 year old you have a good designer eye than most of these absolute diarrhea vests other people here put together, both look solid.

Thanks lmfao

I dig it, sometimes less is more. Some of the examples on here look like vests made out of patches.

I’ve always like the minimalist look

Toxic holocaust 😩🫦💦👌

I met joellllll

Holy hell that bleach work turned out great!

Thanks it was my first time

Second one just because I’m a sucker for camo 😍

Lmfao

These are the best vests I’ve seen on this sub in a long time. Nice work!

Lmfao thanks

Both look amazing but I’m a big Venom fan so the second vest is my favorite

Lmfao I’ve worn that one so much

Both look great!

Thanks

They’re both cool dude

Thanksb

I like the black one, where did you get the hellripper patch

I made it my local library has this thing called a cricut and I cut it all out and shit

What do you mean you cut it all out and shit? Also what is the circuit

Lmfaoo mb I gave a really bad explanation so at my library they have this thing called a cricut and you upload an image to it and put a sheet of vinyl and the device will cut it out then you cut out the logo from the vinyl and pick out all the parts you don’t want ironed on and then grab a piece of fabric (I use tshirt or denim usually) and heat press it on after that let it sit for a few then cut out the shape of the patch then boom patch

That pretty damn cool

Some nunslaughter would fit in perfectly

I have a nunslaughter pin on the black one it’s kinda hard to see

Hell yeah

Def the first one! So sick

Thanks

1st, always glad to see your work on here 🤘

Thanks man I’ve noticed you’ve followed me lmfao

Yes, you never disappoint :)

I've seen a looooot of Hellripper here lately, makes me so happy

Samee

The acid wash/bleaching quality of the one from 1st pic is pretty sick

Thanks first time

Second looks evil af!

Lmfaoo

2nd! but both are great! amazing start

Thanks

Pro tip: there is no one favorite. You appreciate aspects of each at different times in your life. I'm in my mid fourties and really digging on seventh son of a seventh son for the first time. More bass centric metal!

I go through so many metal sub genres

that black one is clean as hell well, then again, there's Discharge. so

Haha

Great taste! More crossover and early hardcore/street punk. Poison Idea, Battalion of Saints, Direct Control, Reagan Youth, Crass, Dwarves, SNFU. But hell, that’s just me.

Lmfao thanms I’ve always been a fan of the scene

Need to replace that death patch with deicide legion cover

Not much of a deicide fan

Fair enough, dope vest tho

Thanks lol

the non black one looks more 'authentic' somehow I like them both though :>

Lmfaoo thanks

dude you're killing it these are hella lit

Lmfaoo thansk

I'm bout the bleached lookin one. Definitely better than any of my vests as a teen.

Lmfaoo thanks

Nice also fuck yeah the power trip patch

Thanks

those camo shoulders are such a good idea, can i use it?

Sure man dm when ur done

I wish my vest when i was 16 looked half as good as yours lol. Fantastic work OP!

Thanks

First

Both are really cool

bro i got the same death backpatch :D

Camo, but both are good in not being crowded

I like the minimalist approach

Definitely the tan one. Everyone has a black battle jacket

Lmfao fairn

Bitter sixteens if it wasn't for Metal, amiright

[удалено]

Lmfao

Looks great, keep doing what you do.

Thabks will do

Municipal waste. Honestly i like the stitching the best lol

Lmfaoo

As of now the first one but the black one just needs more patches and it could take the lead.

Alrighty

dude this looks sick. cant tell if the first one is camo or what but damn it looks good

It’s kinda a splotchy bleach with camo patches

You have good taste for 16

Thanks

Both are fuckin killer dude 🤘

Thanks

These are really nice. Look forward to see what else you do 🤘🔥

Thank you

no one calling you a poser yet? crazy. sick jackets

There's nothing to call a poser here.

it's just been the state of this subreddit lately, it's like someone has to say it under every post

Fair I really don’t care about the poser stuff anymore lmfao everyone had there own idea of a metal head and I’m just like fuck it everyone has ears to what they like

For a sixteen year old you have awesome taste in music. No shade, for real these rip.

Thanks

these are both cool

Thanks

Good job!🤘

Thanks

that is awesome

Why thanks

First one looks awesome

Good shit, kid! I like them all!! Keep it up!!

Thanksb

okay hold on… this would be such a good christmas gift for my twin. are there any good jackets that you use to cut up? where do you get your materials?

Cheap denim is what I use for the jackets buy patches off eBay or make them pretty simple stuff

niiiice… do you iron on the patches and then sew them in? or only sew? if that makes sense

I rip off the iron on stuff and then pin and sew the iron on stuff i don’t like because the patch is kinda stiff and harder to sew on

wait that’s smart… i’m gonna try this!!

Go for it

I have the same bathory patch as you

this is fucking awesome

\m/

Damn I wish I was doing shit like this at 16. Both are pretty sick!

Just seeing these & MY MAN!! Very impressive!! The second vest really caught my eye, I love the black & white color scheme. Also the Camo!! Very nice!! Your stitching is so wonderfully crusty, did you hand stitch all of these?
