Latest project finally finished. Unique G1 TRANSFORMERS-inspired jacket.
TRIVIA:
- This design is based on the classic 1984 animated series Tranformers, specifically the Autobots, (the good guys).
- The original jacket is a genuine original Butlins Redcoat jacket from my days as a Redcoat at The Grand Hotel Llandudno.
- This redesign was debuted and worn onstage when I was support act to comedian Hal Cruttenden at St George's Theatre, Great Yarmouth on 8/9/17.
- There are over 300 two-part metal stud rivets in this jacket. Each one had to be fixed by hand into a marked and cut position which took HOURS!
- Each seam was drawn along with a black line to create a cartoon-like effect.
- There are hundreds of details of distressing and aging, to give the jacket the effect of being battered and rusty.
- The Optimus Prime face was made from a piece of blue denim, drawn freehand then carefully bleached to give the final colouring, then the eyes were painted in a bright blue acrylic.
- Spot the cheeky reference to the tv show Sons of Anarchy, too.
