Made this screen accurate SoA vest for a Halloween party this year.
Black leather vest.
Hand-inked Reaper art then filled in with black Sharpie with red acrylic paint for blood on sickle.
Rockers and lettering were hand-drawn in pencil on tight-weave canvas then cut out and painted in flat blue spray paint.
All patches were attached with Loctite PL Construction grade glue.
Everything received a dry-brush covering with a paste made from espresso grade coffee for the aged look. (planning to add another layer of "dirt")
M-16 was painted with an acrylic wash.
All was sealed with flat Krylon crystal clear.
The front patches are in the works.
Approximately 8 hours total.
side-note:"Tattoos" are transparent water-slide transfer decals with Laserjet printed artwork, then attached with Pros-aide and blended with translucent powder.
Goatee is high-grade synthetic hair attached with spiritgum and brushed with translucent powder for a more realistic appearance.
All tattoos are custom-made and printed on water-decal paper, spiritgum applied and dusted with translucent powder to cover sheen.

Before aging: hand-made rockers with hand cut canvas lettering for 3D stitched effect:
After aging:
