The guy on tumblr said to pm him for the new adress, maybe an user with a tumblr account could do that for us
I really like your spaceship design, reminds me of a russian artist but idk who exactly
Angel Torres
Spaceship? You mean the drawing? It's an artillery shell with a face. It's an excerpt from a drawing by Fred Deltor (50watts.com/Jeu-de-Massacre). I want to incorporate the form of a shell into a sleeve, adding the face.
Joseph Hill
i was thinking ive done finished with this. thought of putting rings n shit. any ideas?
Jaxson Anderson
trying to find red n blue denim to sew in between orange n bleach but hmmm
Juan Sanders
I don't see how blue fits within the palette. If you want to add rings, add rings? Maybe add elements of boro and crustpunk?
Asher Torres
well the overall idea is already out of place.. considering my country is tropical so why would i wanna bother with palette?¿ anyways i jus thought it could be a drawing line. hmmm any reference on boro?
Christopher Wilson
Could you elaborate on the idea behind your jacket? For reference to boro check the pastebin.
Daniel Baker
The front looks great, the back not so imo.
Jordan Brooks
Reposting from the last thread since the link hasn't been added to the pastebin yet:
is cutting the sleeves of a tshirt a good idea or does it look retarded?
Robert Rogers
You want to make a tank top? How skinny are your arms?
John Torres
This'll he useful, thanks!
Lincoln Hall
Jonathan?
Cooper Martin
info on pants?
Sebastian Parker
>when you want to make your favourite pair of jeans a really dark indigo again, just like when you got them but you dye them and use too much dye so they turn pitch black. fuck...
Wyatt Jenkins
Leave them out in the sun for a week or so
Jeremiah Cooper
I'm gonna make a vat of natural indigo dye soon.
I've got a baseball jersey, a sweater and two tote bags to dye. Any other ideas?
Liam Garcia
Pants, underwear, shirt or overall?
Jayden Butler
Had a fuckton of white hanes shirts for some reason.
Kevin Collins
Dope, how long did that take you?
Landon Bennett
A few seconds, then let it dry overnight. Fabric paint i used said 3 days before i can wash it though. Thinking of doing some freehand designs on another.
Grayson Thompson
...
Nathan Campbell
Not that guy, but does it matter? Just be thin/skinny/ripped and it'll look good but in order to look good in any clothes you have to be 1 of those 3. Tl;dr don't be fat/skinnyfat
Colton Long
The clothes should match, among other things, the bodytype. I think a muscular arm suits best, but in the end OP decides.
Aaron Parker
i did a thing with a shirt
Aiden Russell
What exactly
Christian Thomas
A thing
Julian Cook
gr8 fucking contribution
Carson Nguyen
love the fit desu
Aaron Walker
I found my sweater from when I was 4/5 years old. I thought I threw it away! I'm so happy! I know exactly what I'm going to do the next weeks. Tomorrow I post the jacket and the pants.
I mean I want to recreate it to fit my current size, if that's answering your question.
Robert Miller
if i pull and pin the shape I want on the outside seam i will lose some pockets.
Kevin Campbell
Whats the best way to cover the yellow stitching
Nolan Harris
sharpie
Joseph James
What are some good cheap jeans that can achieve this kind of "cut" with tailoring? Are levis 501 ok? Any other cheap alternatives? 501s are not stretch right? I don't like stretch specially on not skinny jeans.
David Ward
Indian ink
Isaac Reyes
>don't like stretch specially on not skinny jeans. so you dont like small leg openings?
Evan Morales
I don't like stretch denim if the jeans cut is more relaxed than a skinny fit. I like both small and not small leg openings.
Jordan Moore
How do I get into aging garments like this? Gonna guess this raf hoodie is garment dyed.
Parker Martinez
A spray bottle with water and very diluted bleach should do the trick
Else leave it outside on a clothesline outside for a few weeks
Ethan Walker
can you add quick recap from last thread next time?
Henry Moore
What did you have in mind?
Caleb Robinson
pic related is a general from /g/. I think a quick sum of previous thread looks very cool and it makes it easier to search for something in archive.
Sebastian Foster
OP here Too much work t b h but if another user wants to make this and become the op of the next threads he can
Gabriel Carter
Maybe just a list of finished projects?
Jace Long
just maked my new skaet shoes how did i do
Andrew Rivera
...
Jaxson Ward

Jordan Lewis
Took advice to bleach my stained shoes. The sides look super good, but the tongue/nose seems to have taken a pink tint after bleaching. What do? Why did it GAIN color form bleaching it?
Evan James
Looks super cool as it is You didn't gain color, the original fibers of the fabric were pink
Anthony Foster
The line you have drawn should stop around the thighs. Than you work at the back.
Caleb Ross
these are really nice good job
Ethan Brown
I didn't sew them. These were my clothes when I was 4 or 5 years old.
Adrian Roberts
It was previously a big-ass overshirt and I cropped it and brought in the waist and adjusted the collar and changed the buttons and, y'know, things
Hunter Jones
dam must of been a cool ass kid
Jaxon Campbell
How are you going to prepare the vat?
James Rogers
i would try india ink
Jacob Long
What did you do exactly? You didn't make them from scratch did you?
Nicholas Bell
discord.gg/jb4qFuU I made a Veeky Forums diy discord if anyone is interested in chatting about making stuff with likeminded people
John Carter
yeah I might do some old shirts actually, I wanted to do pants but am not really sure where to find blank/white cotton pants for cheapish. I might try and do Linen scarf if I can find a strip of linen somewhere
I have a big old steel pot that I'm going to use, you need to wrap it in a towel to sustain the heat at 60C for longer. It's not ideal but it does the job just fine for a small batch
Carson Lee
Why? Why not talk in this thread?
Carter Cruz
yuore right i added some plastic to the midsole that was seriously worn off and painted a black stripe with a pen!
Oliver Rodriguez
It's difficult to have a running conversation in a thread compared to IM
Jason Reyes
Ooh Well nice work then, never would've guess honestly
Blake Myers
The huge skirt backpack is coming close to finished, I'll keep you guys updated
Noah Johnson
right away i'd say malevitch, something like an englishman in moscow
Daniel Brown
What are you going to wear with it?
Ayden Adams
What's the verdict on using heat transfer paper for back patches? Do they look stupid/don't last?
Lucas Carter
yeah exactly that, thank you
Ian Davis
I've been trying to ruin a sweatshirt, like holes-in, scratches, and shit.
So far, I've got a few cigarette burns in it, scratched it with a knife, and then when I was drunk I like stabbed it a bunch.
Any other ideas for something I can do?
Dylan James
Bury it in the ground for a couple of weeks. Scrape it with asphalt or sandpaper.
Hey I have a question.. What adhesive would you use to re-adhere vinyl lettering to cotton? Pic related, I have a bunch of old HBA stuff like these leggings where the lettering is starting to peel.
Logan Kelly
I'd rather not have discussion splinter off into a discord either for a thread this slow
Ayden Moore
lil pump ouu lil pump yuh
Samuel Cruz
yoo, so sick
im digging the raw cut on the collar
Liam Green
loving that gucci tatt on his stupid nigger body
Mason Garcia
Yeah they don't last, for maximum security you want to iron it on and then sew it too, idk about back patches but I've found they arm patches can be made comfier by actually peeling off the sticky layer first as it makes them a lot more flexible.
Jose Allen
didn't like the sleeves so i cut them off
Jackson Jones
Looks good
Anthony Martinez
This guy looks like a hobo.
Kayden Sullivan
anybody got inspo/ideas for jeans with patches on? not talking patchwork but actual patches
Daniel Parker
No it doesnt
Camden Gomez
Posted in the wrong thread, but does anyone have experience with Dylon machine dye? Don't wanna botch this
Cooper Gray
Follow the instructions
If you dont want it pitch black then add the dye in half's or quarters of a packet and put it in for the longest wash you can and then rinse when you achieve your desired level of black
Matthew Thomas
hobos look good where you live apparently
Levi Smith
dirt by wearing them
William Scott
Was salt included? After you dyed, wash a couple of times to get rid off any leftover dye.
