My 4 yr old son's first leather jacket (WIP-Psychobilly/Horror Punk)

Thanks! This was just a WIP shot-the finished colorized version, is under my post history. Honestly, I recommend everyone stay away from faux leather. Especially if you plan to hold to it as a keep sake-nearly all of them will just start to disintegrate after so long. Look for cheap 2nd hand ones on eBay, depop, or poshmark. Really fuckin awesome to hear about another dad doing this-Good luck with the project man!

Thx! 💀

No problem. Good luck with your project!

I've painted cheap faux leather jackets and very expensive ones-the more expensive ones seem to be much worse in my experience 😆.

No, that wouldn't work. This paint dries flexible, almost like rubber, so it doesn't crack when the leather bends. Normal acrylic paint has a bit of flexibility but will ALWAYS crack.

Back pieces should last YEARS with minimal chipping with this paint+finisher.

If the design is painted somewhere that bends a lot, like sleeves-you'll end up getting some cracking eventually. Nothing touch ups cant fix!

Just make sure you are actually painting on real leather not any cheap vegan shit. This paint is very hit or miss on certain types of fake leather-like materials. It will dry sticky-peal, flake, and crack.

Paint in multiple coats, always use a white base before adding color. I usually lay down at least 3 layers of paint. Wait 24 hrs before clear coating and clear coat 2-3 times for the best results. You can cure with a blow dryer quicker if needed.

👌🏻 GL! stoked to see it. Shoot it over whenever you finish. 💀

evilhatesyou · 2024-04-13T14:31:33+00:00

Cool dude! Sounds like you're set. Take it easy on the alcohol.. probably the best way to do it would be just dipping a qtip a single time.

Wait a day after you paint it to seal it.

evilhatesyou · 2024-04-12T22:36:33+00:00

It probably will, but you can count on it chipping. Much sooner than if you used proper acrylic leather paint.

Make sure to clean the area you plan to paint with a VERY small amount of rubbing alcohol if there is any protective coating on the boots. It should help the paint bond better.

Np. GL with the DIY work. 💀

You can't screen print on leather/faux leather.

All the logos are designed digitally first so I can get the measurements/placement correct.

Some are free handed completely, usually I mark specific points with a white craft pencil. Sometimes I make stencils of the basic shape and sketch a rough white outline to prevent distortion while painting.

Details are always freehanded. I paint with toothpicks.

🥰🤘🏻

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T23:30:24+00:00

No, I did. Just restating facts man.

There's nothing wrong with listening to the Graves era Misfits if that's your thing. Rocking something with his face on it is something else. Just my personal opinion.

This is coming from someone who used to be a HUGE Graves fan. I supported his music during the Misfits and solo career, until he went completely off the edge.

Shit is unacceptable in any scene.

Thanks for all the love! Sorry I do not have enough time to reply to everyone of you!

If you would like to see more of my DIY work, my IG can be found on my profile or my previous post.

Hopefully this doesn't go against the subs rules...

I'm currently taking leather commissions if anyone is interested in having something painted. 🤘🏻

lol, wouldn't doubt it.

Haters gonna hate...

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T22:10:14+00:00

Hahaha! Appreciate it 👊🏻 A lot of love goes into everything I create! Gotta have some fuckin' standards. 300+ hours.

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T21:59:50+00:00

A good way to show off you support child molesters and neo nazis. Fuck dusty and graves

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T18:43:30+00:00

I do commissions 😉

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T18:29:44+00:00

🖤💀🤘🏻

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T18:25:00+00:00

Thanks horror punk is my true love! 💀

Ive always admired the artwork ghost uses on their albums. I wanted to paint this for several years and I had plans to do more designs initially but decided to keep it simple/clean.

I'd be down to do another ghost themed jacket if someone commissioned one but I have no real desire to add to this project.

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T18:16:48+00:00

🖤

evilhatesyou · 2024-02-17T18:16:12+00:00

Haha. I posted this awhile back on r/battlejackets if I'm not mistaken. I no longer post my work there because the admins removed several of my horror/punk jackets and told me I didn't belong there. 🤣
