My Enigma Outfit

[Savage 1,677]

Im so mad at myself rn. I bought a neon green biker vest as a mix of a Judas/Enigma type look. I started to superglue sequins on it to spell out Judas on the back, but it didn't come out well so I stopped halfway through and now I don't know how to get the superglue off. It's a plastic vinyl like material (the jacket) kinda like the see through plastic on the JWT backpack. How do I get it off without ruining the jacket, and does anyone have any ideas on how to make the jacket less boring? I already spent so much $ on it.

Keep going, I'm sure there's a way to make it come out well without redoing it. We believe in you!

Please give me ideas if you have any!

you could leave the back part full of sequins, it would look beautiful and stand out from the crowd

Post a picture of the jacket so we can see what you’re working with?

What kind of glue did you use?

In architecture school we used this thing called “un-cure” to remove already glued parts on acrylics and plastic, and it removes the residue as well if you applied more after  

 

Im assuming the jacket is like a thin PET-G type material.

Here's 3 pics of it: front, back, and close up of the part I ruined. 

My show is in 2 weeks.

The image won't show. But I think that site doesn't work on here.

i don't think you should go back in with the sequins and superglue.

my suggestions include: layer another vest/jacket over it.

less reliable suggestions include: get fkn crafty and make a fringe, cropped vest to go over it. or really just any sort of cover that you can wear as a layer.

   :for example

if you're really set on those sequins just **** it up fam. put a **** ton on and be a messy disco ball.

I saw this a while ago...

You could also spray paint (or paint) the Enigma logo on the back using a template?

Maybe add some studs / spikes to the epaulettes, lapel or collar and go the more punkish route.  Really depends how much you want to do to it or keep simple as the colour itself is actually really ****ing cool.

If you tried writing out Judas but it got sloppy, it may be easier just to make a cross or something on the back. I’m not nearly as creative as other people on this thread when it comes to this stuff , but if you want something simple that may be a nice easy start at least
