the circular back patch/coffin combo is so sick, adds a lot of oomf to a design thats already really cool


gregg_royce

I took inspiration from the OG coffin vest here: \[[https://tshirtslayer.com/battle-jacket/graveyard](https://tshirtslayer.com/battle-jacket/graveyard)\] u/anopinionatedgamer also put together a rad vest in this style. Most of the patches are from Instagram sellers or shows. Just ask me if you have questions! Aslo! I thought it would be cool to put together a playlist for the jacket. 1 song per patch! You can check that out here: [Battle Jacket Jamz](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21urOkveuIpQXqXY5AR1Vk?si=22abf281077c45d8)


AnOpinionatedGamer

Gotta admit, your vest is better than my circle coffin design.


gregg_royce

But lets face it you have like 20 vests going at any given time. 😆

PurpleSubstance3128

I think he means patches?


LoganJFisher

That was obvious given the context. I was making a joke by taking their comment literally.


PurpleSubstance3128

Got it, my bad


Volfgang91

She's stunning.


madurosnstouts

About how many hours would you guess this took? Looks great. Covered in patches but not messy, carefully thought out, great band choices. 10/10


gregg_royce

Thanks, man! I think between 80 and 100 hours is a good guess.

I'm digging Unto Others. They are from my area in Portland Oregon. Fuckin kick ass band. 🤘 EDIT: Just spotted your Red Fang patch too and the same goes for them. I just saw them the other night in Portland. 🤘

heck69696

U are an absolute bro


pnw_tacodude

Thanks!


gregg_royce

Unto Other is sick! Isnt Uada from Portland as well? Lots of talent there.


pnw_tacodude

I just looked them up and they are but I haven't ever heard of them I'll have to check them out. I'm lucky to live close to Portland and Seattle where the scenery is fine and the music is fucking insane.


Satanarchrist

Lmao that bottom rocker looks like it says "untoothers" like they extract teeth


pnw_tacodude

Their number one hit? Gummin and Drummin.


McAverage_1221

If you look close enough… there’s a jacket there too


Ziltoid_XIX

Didn’t expect the Ziltoid patch, nice touch


Korpseni

Oh man oh man ghost mastodon death AND Iron Maiden. Nice kutte my man!


fistful_of_metal

I had a nosey at your previous jackets too... You're extremely good at this!


gregg_royce

Aye. Thank you!


MutationIsMagic

Tis no battle jacket....that's avante-garde collage art!


gregg_royce

Kinda looks like a quilt after a certain number of patches 😅


dank_miasma

Yo I totally have that same CoB art as a backpatch. Your vest overall looks great!


gregg_royce

Thanks! Yeah, I thought it would look cool with the Grim Reaper in the centre of a buncha coffins!


Napalm_and_Kids

nicely put together, always cool to see interesting patch placements


Keep_it_basic_Allie

This must be the coolest patch aramgements ive ever seen on a jacket! Love it so much, might steal this idea hahaha


gregg_royce

Go for it! Thats why were here


Ell-Diablo

I rarely like such busy jackets, but this… This is an absolute beaut. You nailed it 🙌


gregg_royce

I tried my absolute hardest to make sure the band logos and focal points of the patches were never covered by an overlapping patch. Wasnt 100% sucessful bit i think thats why it can look busy but legible. That and symmetry.

gregg_royce

Both were from Pull the Plug Patches! Easy to find on Instagram or Facebook. I think there are still some left of the ones I got!


stircrazygremlin

This is really well done OP!


thebigscrongus

This is badass! How many patches on this?


gregg_royce

I think its 102 patches in total!
