mission mostly successful! it's definitely not black but it's a much darker shade than before, and the vinyl is unharmed, so i'm happy with how this went
thank you to @transangeliccowboy for the advice :]
hello my followers who do diy things i am in need of advice. i have this concert hoodie (standard red hoodie with a white vinyl decal of the artist name on the front) which i love but hardly ever wear because it is Bright Fuckoff Red and that is not my color. so i've been considering trying to dye it black / a darker color at least, with some sort of fabric dye, but .. does anybody know if that would actually work well? especially in terms of the white vinyl. tldr i don't want to fuck up my hoodie but i also don't want it to be so red
false chanterelle (hygrophoropsis aurantica)
informative lesson in how different types of fabric are in fact very different ! i no longer have a dark green mushroom foray shirt.
so the color remover i got did not even slightly lessen the bright-redness of my hoodie after 20 minutes in the Color Remover Soup, but what it did do very well was instantaneously remove the color of the shirt i was wearing at the time

Your centipede boots are SO AWESOME!! What did you use to paint them?
thank you!! i'm glad people enjoy them so much :] i used Angelus leather paint! i read somewhere that was a good brand and picked some up from a craft store (in a set that came with brushes and some sort of leather preparer which i also used), it seemed to work very well although i can't attest to its durability yet bc i've only worn the boots a few times
!!! holy shit this is so cool! i'm so honored to see someone take inspiration from my work genuinely i love this sm <3

Also what does your url mean? /gen
it's the scientific name for a mushroom! Strobilomyces strobilaceus, commonly known as the old man of the woods. I think it's neat :] funky little edible bolete (ive never tried it myself but i would like to! very easily recognized, good safe species if you know the basics)
