What is it about real bones that puts you off? They're just as clean as plastic, and with the added bonus of being recycled AND bio-degradable. They're also free if you look in the right places, haha.

Thanks : D
The pants are actually really fun to make; I may try bleaching other stuff soon. I wanna try it on my boots.

It's a dreadhawk with the back shaved off. I'm gonna be dying it green once the dreads are mature enough to not be destroyed by bleach.

I just finished my new vest yesterday, the backpatch just came in the mail and I finished studding it. It's my crustgrind vest. I took a denim jacket hacked the sleeves off and went to town, I'll get pics of it this weekend. I've got Sore Throat, Napalm Death, Extreme Noise Terror, Nausea, Broken Bones and an awesome Carcass backpatch.

I'm looking forward to pictures of this vest.
The ones on your myspace looked awesome.


In my DIY updates, I've finished my Rubella Ballet patch and need to sew it onto my denim jacket.
It looks fucking awesome.

This is my first try at painting fabric, so it doesn't look amazing but, it could be worse.

It's both a complicated part of my spirituality and linked to my worst phobia.

I'm assuming you painted that freehand?
Not bad, but with the picture you used as reference.. you could have just made a stencil out of it. :P

I've hemmed up the sides of a vest of mine, so it's not baggy. I'm not showing pictures because it's shitty. I don't know how to even both sides out, besides just eyeballing it. Especially when I've hemmed it so it goes in more towards the middle.

I made a Motley Crue vest for my hair metal drag costume.

Not pictured: the massive penis placed strategically in my shiny, tight pants, which I DIY-ed from a condom and dried lentils. Vegetarian man meat (and a totally awesome DIY accomplishment).

I won't sleep tonight, due to a mixture of fear and arousal.


But mostly fear.

You could have been in this video (skip to 3minutes in, the proper copy of the video doesn't seem to be on youtube now)

I sure did make a sexy hunk of man flesh, I know, but the real star of the drag night was Bat Brains.
