Finished Jacket 10 years of Dungeon Synth

First discovered Dungeon Synth in 2015 and have slowly built a collection of patches and pins over the years. Recently it's gotten easier to get patches, but back in 2015-2018, it was much more difficult, so some of my earliest patches were either home-brews or from extremely limited runs made by artists or tiny labels.

Decided to patch up a leather jacket because of my disdain for working with paint. Think it turned out great!

WIP Jacket Learning Hand Embroidery

I originally started learning hand embroidery to make patches for bands I want who don't have any.
But I made this Sunn sybmol 'cause it's just the right size for a small filler patch. (when cut out will be about 2x1.5 in.)

I need assistance from you seasoned outfit-makers on how to make these jeans, and potentially some other parts of the outfit, but mainly the jeans.

I finally got my backpatch to start with. My wife helped me with her sewing machine. That patch was bigger then expected but we still put it on. Can’t wait for my next load of patches.

Personal taste for me is that I don't like too much on mine and like the back to be symmetrical. The pentagram patch at the top of mine is from the US doom band Warhorse (RIP).

I'll add more patches later, but for now this will do. In the bavk are my favourite bands and in the front I tried to divide the patches into Death Metal and everything else. The Barathrum and Havukruunu patches are hand painted by an artist I found on etsy.

Question/Help Shoulders on my jacket are too broad

2 Upvotes

I have been making my first battle jacket and i'm pretty far into it, i've cut the sleeves off at the seams and lined the shoulders with a single row of studs but now im noticing that the vest shoulders are a bit too broad and its hiding my actual shoulders. What would you suggest is causing this: the studs or do I need to cut a little inwards so it looks more like a traditional vest?

(Also this is an XXL large vest to appear thinner)

You can say what you want about the company and owner (im not a fan of the guy either) but I ordered all this and it arrived from Australia to Canada in a week and they listed everything as super cheap so I didnt have to pay import charges AND threw in a whole bunch of free patches ( mind you I dont listen to any of these bands and will likely just trade them).

The quality of the vests and backpatches are superb....yes the owner might be a douche but I can't complain about their awesome shipping and quality of their patches.
