Painted jacket n moto vest n stuff. Image fat.

Mmmkay, since I'd been meaning to take pictures of this stuff for a while now, I figured that this would be a good excuse.



Sorry about the shit quality, I have horrible lighting in my room and these were taken with a cellphone held at arms length. And I got short little arms, lemme tell you.


The color here is a little better


See? When I put my hand in my pocket, it looks like an x-ray of my hand. Pretty clever, eh? eh?


And if it technically really has to do with bitches stitching...the seams on this thing are awful, really, and the side seam split pretty widely...so I had to stitch it back together. Probably won't be the last time I have to do that...

Okay, the story behind this jacket: I found myself in Oak Park with my mom for this George Harrison memorial, and I spotted a thrift store and darted in. Found this little girl's biker jacket for eight bucks, so I nabbed it. Then I painted x-rays on it with acrylic paint. Also, after I took it home, I discovered a little present in the pocket:



And this little guy I made about two years ago when I couldn't sleep out of two little boy's t-shirts I thrifted and some other second hand clothes I had laying around:




So there you go. I have a bunch of unfinish projects laying around because I sew everything by hand and get really ADD in the middle of things if they take more than a couple hours.

And will someone PLEASE tell me how to get pictures smaller here?

That jacket kicks ass! Such a cool idea.
Don't worry about projects not having stitching, they can be ANYTHING and long as you did something diy to em.
And about the pictures, I don't know where you upload them at but most places allow you to upload them in smaller sizes. Don't worry about the big pictures though, if you make em too small you can't see the detail.

Thanks!

Yeah, I just don't want to stretch people's screens so wide that they have to scroll side to side, because I know that annoys me. Plus the bigger they are, the more easily people can look into my room...haha. I uploaded them on photobucket, I'll see if I can screw around with them a little.

-edit-
I fixeded dem. Though if anyone is having problems with the size still, do lemme know and I'll tweak them some more

Shit I love the hand on the pocket!!!!

Thanks! i'm surprised I was actually clever enough to think of it.

And the thing above it is actually a neck x-ray, btw...people usually can't tell...
