Hobo Chic

What Ax looked like before he got his job: Homeless!

Still trying to master the archaic mysteries to making properly fitted men's pants. Yesterday I got one step closer ^^

The hobo effect of the jean came about in a moment of frustration. While trying them on him, there was just the teeny-tiniest show of fraying denim in one of the legs' seams. Sure, I could've just turned them inside out, stitched it shut, and added a bit of fabric glue for good measure. But was I going to let a pair of doll pants get the best of me? No >.<

I took a pocket knife to the started fray and made it considerably bigger. Then I decided what the hell and cut the knees, mutilating the one >_> Tried fraying the bottom hems, but that turned out to be more work than it was worth. I even ran my knife at an angle along the fabric rapidly to give it that "worn out" feel denim gets after a while.

What was next? BLEACH! Oh it was fun. No idea how his pants would've gotten that bad IRL, but oh well! I like it :3
