This is my new battle jacket, may become a vest later, still have lots of work to do. It has custom made the Chasm and St Vitus patches, as well as a souls of black design painted with acrylics.
Acrylic's fine as long as the layer is not too thick, once it dries it's very resilient, like plastic or latex, so it stays on fine. I bought the KD patch at a local store, I think it's custom made but it was cheap, about 3 bucks.
there is acrylic made for painting on leather as long as it's not layed on thick it won't crack. shake it well and mix it a little till it's all an even consistency then try it on a sample piece of leather.if your doing a denim vest buy acrylic for fabric not art and use a camel hair brush or it will leave streaks on the finnish and get them in different sizes.let us see it when your done.
I'll be showing the progress of this jacket for sure. I will embroider? the ace of spades in the back by hand this weekend. Any ideas for cool stuff to paint in the space I got left?

That souls of black picture is awesome, and a badass backpatch.

Thanks man, I made it myself, the backpatch is a t-shirt cut out.

that paintwork looks awesome
I'm thinking of making a vest with just paint on it, but does the acrylic paint stay good, does it show cracks after a while?
and I've never seen that King Diamond patch before, where did you get it? or is it costum?
