A customized denim jacket is one of the quintessential iconic Rock and Roll items of all time. There are so many ways to customize a denim jacket, I had never really thought of painting one until I saw this amazing video on Youtube, this guy in the video does the most amazing job of painting his denim jacket. The fox he paints reminds me of the WWII era flight jackets with the tiger and dragon motifs, they are so classic and worth a fortune now. I follow many chain stitch embroidery people on Instagram and almost all of them sketch out their work before it hits the sewing machine so why not paint it? It really looks amazing and I thought I would give it a go, but first, we have to really study what this Youtuber does. The materials are pretty basic, you only need a few things, that are probably already laying around the craft room.
