Steampunk Black Beards Coat (wip)
Found an old leather jacket to use as Black Beards coat for my steampunk project. I had to sew gold skull and crossbones buttons on it because there were no buttons on it at all. I still want to add gold embellishments to the collar, gold dogear cuffs to the sleeves, and have someone spray paint Black Beards flag on the back. I still have to finish the mask, resew the sash with gold trim, and a heck of a lot of other tweaks. Pants, hat, and boots will have to be worked on also.
