When you get jumpscared by your own suggestion being in the video 😂

Leather paints also work on pleather and are designed to adhere while remaining flexible, but they tend to run a bit pricey

As someone who is currently taking a course in graphic design, my advice would be to make 8-10 thumbnail designs, then combine your favorite ones and see how you feel. I recommend doing them in separate little boxes, on whatever medium you feel the most loose/free in. Thumbnails are meant to be kinda shit, cause it helps you be more free to design things without worrying about how nice it looks. Also, I like the cracking on the paint. I feel like it adds to the aesthetic.

The stained glass idea was gorgeous and I think you'd like to have something like that in your wardrobe, based on what you usually wear

Love when Kira makes a spontaneous artistic decision

I love how down to earth your little talking session was! the demand for videos can be a lot on youtube but you've built up a good comunity and we're okay with you talking a break if you need to

Kira said flames on toilet bowl, and my brain immediately said FORBIDDEN SOUP

The cryptid biker vibes are as intense as the flames in that jacket and I'm all for it! That being said, I do get in way the feeling of not being able to express all you wanna do in one design. Sometimes compromise is the answer. Other times, is not being afraid to mix and match, to experiment even if in theory it sounds absurd. Reseaching the things you wanna make can also help. Like, moths and flames? You could make the wings have an abstract resemblence to flames, or make them straight out flames that make the shape of wings! That also counts as a fantasy creature. But all that said, it's a jouney, and we all have our times of learnings and unsterstanding. However, I do believe it to be worth it :)

The main plot of Kira’s videos: Putting paint or other chemicals and mushrooms on things it probably shouldn’t be on :D

Kira gives rockstar girlfirend vibes in that jacket

Yo, I would love to see a series format if you think that might help with your planning problem. You could plan a piece in part one, kinda like your design vids, then make a part doing mock ups/iterations, then a part where you work on the final. It could be really rad to watch imo. And if it seems like it might help to focus more long term on one larger or more complicated project, maybe it could be cool!

Ok the hair is hairing !!! Love the Jacket 10000% but the HAIR!

First the drop of episode one and two of The Magnus Protocol a couple of days ago and now I get to be blessed with this glorious assembly of eyeballs on a jacket??? The univers truly works in mysterious ways.

Hi Kira, I’m a big fan of your videos and art. I don’t know if you’ll see this but an idea for you to make a garment filled with all of your styles/motifs/design ideas could be a patchwork cardigan, with each patch having something different on it! To make it more fun and eclectic, each square could be different colours and sizes and whatnot, that in the end you would puzzle together to make into a sweater/cardigan pattern. I saw this video last week of an artist doing this but for a blanket, and her followers actually sent in to her a patch they each made for her to add to it, so it ended up having completely unique sizes, colours, textures, patterns and symbols on each patch, but it came together beautifully. Here’s the video link to watch if it interests you: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i8yAishmqdWtaac.htmlsi=WzO3BBtqGEQV7vsr But yeah. It doesn’t even need to be crochet if you don’t want to, you could do the same thing with like embroidered (or painted) fabric patches sewn/quilted together, or knitted patches or whatnot. The possibilities are endless and you would definitely end up with a really cool uniquely stylish garment showcasing all your favourite things!

18:12 the eyes on the jacket reminds me of Alucard from Helsing anime

the jacket is such a slay! the contrasting colour eyeballs look so good, definitely a good decision. and I love the way you styled it, especially with the dresses!

The orange/red and blue/white flames paired together reminded me of the agni-kai between Azula and Zuko in Avatar 😮 the jacket turned out so gorgeous!!

I’ve painted a few jean jackets and I can say that just start painting with just a vague idea works. It’s also great to just keep adding over time, like greating more of a patchwork jacket

This looks very casual Van Helsing cosplay and I'm living for it ! You did an amazing job!

I say embrace the cracked paint. It gives the jacket a lived-in vintage vibe. Nothing wrong with that.

The jacket makes you look like the cool side character in a supernatural anime, and when they use their powers the flames flicker and the eyes blink.

Your creativity actually astonishes me, like I love the fact you can take flames and eye balls and slap them on a jacket and make something that looks is beautiful. I've been so inspired from your channel ever since I watched your pastel witch video. As always really lovely work kira

this jacket turned out so fuckin cool! the cracks on the paint obviously arent ideal since it’ll probably continue to crack and get messedup but i think it sorta goes with the insane maximalist biker aesthetic 🤌 also the outfits you make with your finished garments always look so dope, you never fail to bring the entire vibes of your projects together in your final result shoots!! luv ur content

Fire cowboy in a leather jacket? This gives off Ghost Ridder vibes. Also cool project.

I do love your design. Some moths have eyes. The wings could have been either on fire or flame coded, plus awards could have gone up the sleeves with vines.

I love watching what you create every week be it character designs, props, or clothing!! You never fail to blow me away and inspire me!! I hope you won't mind me saying this, but it seems like you always feel rushed to finish your projects and that your weekly upload schedule places a lot of stress on you. If you wanted to tackle larger projects that you couldn't complete in a week, I'm sure it would be fine to take a week off! Or if you still want to upload, maybe just make a process video :0 We just want to see you make the best art possible and reach your creative potential! Thank you for the inspiring video, as always, and take care!

U need Angelus leather acrylic paints!! 😮😊

A giant moth on the back that is half blue half red and covered in eyeballs could look awesome and tie in the moths/nature!

your personal style i now call it kiracore. its all over the place but still looks fantastic all at once and its the best aesthetic anyone can have

Literally as I am watching this I am working on a DIY jacket for each of my nieces and nephews 😮 they are all the rage!

When in doubt, Buffy is always the answer!! ❤

That reveal gave me really strong Planet Terror Vibes. Which is one of my favorite Zombie movies.

I love watching/listening to art videos like this while I draw!!

Turned out fantastic. Painting denim jackets is easy with fabric paints. I’ve been doing it for years. You’ll love it.

People contain multitudes. Trying to pin every single part of you (or what you define as you ) in a jacket will be very difficult. I do want you to try again because I want you to succeed - I also want you to be aware that making something self defining will probably take longer than a week to create and that is okay. The jacket does look sick tho 🔥 🔥 🔥

The jacket turned out so cool but can we talk about your hair and makeup throughout this video?! Holy crap, just gorgeous

although it would be cool to have EVERYTHING on this jacket, always remember that this is one piece in an outfit and styling is a very creative way to fully express your personal style. Imagine this jacket with a mossy dress and a cowboy hat and flaming cowboy boots and layers of crystal jewelry and bam that's you. Maximalism is best expressed throughout multiple pieces with different aesthetics and mixing them together!!!

This is a fantastic project! One of the channels that was recommended to me (possibly based on your channel) is one called "Reissued," which is a guy who does home renovations and fine art, but he also customizes clothes and does a lot of painting on leather, so if you're looking for more techniques on how to paint on leather and vegan leather, I'd suggest checking his channel out.

Kira Josh Hutchersoned us with Pedro 😭

Your makeup looks so good this video!! Also that coat is absolutely badass

This is somehow giving good omens for me

17:12 love the idea!

15:33 this whole part about feeling like you have to be decisive when your natural inclination is in so many different directions Like I can’t stop fluctuating between dragon, wizard, witch, ghost, crow, raccoon, fox, butterfly, and cat vibes, yknow? I can’t pin myself down to any of them and I bounce around all those vibes, it’s like circus performers spinning loads of plates on sticks

Jackets giving Ruby Sunday doctor who vibes👍

Love the painting on clothing, believe it or not my mum has a t-shirt and if it gets marked from decorating or gardening she will just add flowers to cover the mark, not too shabby for an 84 year old.❤❤

You can make pins with designs you want to add like roses or daggers and such without fearing of ruining what you've already made

"Short" video or not ANY video no matter what type I know Ima love👌🏾👌🏾

I love the combination of flames and eyeballs. Super fun design you ended up with. I look forward to seeing you paint on more clothing in the future. :)

I would be beyond thrilled to have a pair of Kira-made stays.

Imm sorry Hun, the fact that You've started this video by making the decision to paint a jacket seem like an epic victory on a long quest.. so good. So good. You're great at what you do.

Maybe a moth with flame wings would be cool on the back

got to learn that clothes-changing hearflipp. So handy. I still use the old fashioned way... Oh, Nice Jacket!

I would totally be hype with you doing thrift flips, painting them. The jacket turned out great, minus the paint choice.

i wasnt really vibing with the flames but omg. the eyes really made it look soooo good. i LOVE it!

loved this week's video!!! I love seeing the sponteneity and just the immaculate vibes you're putting into makin this! I hope you're not stressign yourself out too bad about uplaoding every week, I wouldn't at all mind waiting on cool projects and giving you space to breathe next to crafing, gods know creative juices don't flow all the time

Flames on a grey toilet bowl and it's a 🔥cauldron🔥

Total Anime vibes! I could even imagine a moth in the back, maybe a tobacco moth, or something that looks like it has eyes. Kind of like the soul animal to the character who would were this, and have two forms, regular and ultimate. Ultimate being the blue side of course ;)

I feel like some lightning would be a cool addition to this jacket. It’s giving me “hell scape” vibes personally.

you could make another jacket or somthing with the stained glass idea and have different things depicted in different parts of the window

the editing on this video is *chefs kiss*

Accidentally watched the first half of the video in x2 speed, thinking this was just the vibe of the video today. I think I need a coffee and have an art break this morning.

Sand (fine grit 400-600) the jacket paint needs something to grab onto. Leather paints do work on fake leather but when I cosplayed folk art multi-surface paint worked really well. & get a sealer on top of that Angelus leather paints finishers where my go to

Thumbs up from a retired, drove my own, biker chick. (I also wrecked it😮 so yah)

it’s okay to have multiple styles you wear ✨

giant flaming moth with eye patters boom all the ideas in one i think lol

honestly i paint jackets with acrylic paint all the time! i use denim jackets but the concept is pretty similar. ive been wearing one of them consistently for about two years and theres some cracking but i feel like it just adds to the aesthetic. none of the cracking is horrible either, and its not really noticeable unless youre inspecting the jacket. i wouldn’t worry about it much!

Fabulous result. Suggestion, how about a different coloured painted jacket for each theme of you. Green…forest, grey/white..witchy, pink/mauve for cute fairy etc. yes, you do need more than one jacket! Fabulous!

Makes me want to put paint on fabric 😊

This is a super random suggestion, BUT, have you ever considered making cosplay of your spidersona? Or decorating clothing based on your spidersona? It's very late for this suggestion,but I think it could be interesting lol

You should do design session videos. Where you take time to just come up with the ideas. And then do the actual making of them as separate videos at a later time.

Ok first of all I love the video and the jacket as always, everything you make turns out so cool!!! But also I just had a thought- you could make an entire flames outfit with the bleached tank and skirt you made a while back!

love these less planned out videos!!

It’s giving eccentric anime villain and I love it

I have a suggestion for the future: A busy art neuvoux garden/ wildflower type of scene with butterflies ( or moths) with dark woodland in the background with dimsemboodied eyes lurking and staring out, all in a stainglass style. You could also maybe paint it on a patch and sew it into a jacket

You could make a bunch of patches of your interests and then make them into a patch work jacket or dress. Or some youtubers are doing community projects. You could do something like that

outro look is giving major Alucard vibes 😍

You should make a moth, that is made of fire, with sharp teeth flying through a gothic castle with vines growing along the side of the walls. I think that is a combination of everything you where talking about during this project.

I love these garment paintings you do!!! More! More! More!!! 😍

This is such a great video I love the design ! For a future character drawing video you could do a band of mushroom witches because that would be really cool :)

WOW!!!! This is SPECTACULAR!!! WOW!

It’s giving me shoto Todoroki from my hero 🔥❄️

Your hair and makeup is so pretty. Really like the flames.

You can paint the other ideas on pins and pin them on the jacket

For my personal aesthetic, I have found a way to merge together: hippie, witchy, vintage, punk, grunge, emo, and goth styles. I want to start incorporating clown-core into my wardrobe as well! They way I find that I'm able to do this is to stick to a minimal color palette, play with fabric/textile, mix-and-match silhouettes, decades, casual-wear & evening-wear, lengths, accessories, layers, etc. By combining a more victorian goth piece with a corporate goth piece, and layering some grunge elements, and punk accessories with a different style of shoe like maybe y2k wedges or masculine oxfords. It creates a unique visual and achieves a cohesive blend of my aesthetics! Hope this helps, or sparks some ideas!!

This gives huge Crowley vibes and I love it!

if you are looking to combine different parts like nature but also flame, consider changing shape. (would take more work, close to double but..) an idea could be like loose leaf like shape flames on it. and dont forget you can add or remove shapes from a garment aswell, sword like cut outs or moth wings in the pattern with visible thread for emphasis

The idea of you doing stuff on clothes sounds super interesting :D

hey, thats a really cool painted jacket

I bought some fabric paint last year so I could do this, like you it’s now finding the right outfits to do😹😹😹 Loved the flames not a fan of the eyes but that’s just me, I don’t even have any eye beads in my collection due to my aversion to them. I think it’s because I had an uncle as a child who had a glass eye and as a joke he would pop it out and just leave it in the oddest of places. Telling a 5 year old that the eye is a fake and cannot see is not the easiest of tasks back then.

@Kathleenillustrated is so amazing! Of course she would suggest earthly delights! More seriously, the way you have always portrayed a fearlessness in "combining" motifs and projects has absolutely inspired me to open my mind as to what art is and what I am capable of. I barely know what day it is, so an upload schedule doesn't mean as much to me as one of my fav creators feeling excited to make something. I would love to see you do whatever your heart desires, even if it is a dress with LED lights and an eyeball flame mushroom frog... hat.... sword.... thing. I used to think that I wasn't an artist because I was just a writer, but last night I make a polymer clay heart dude with a butt. And it's your fault. Thank you.

idk what that song is with the trumpets that's like ah do-do-dooo da da da! but it's been in so many of ur montages recently that at this point when it kicks in my brain goes ooooh hELL YEAH!!! KIRA'S GONNA MAKE AN ART!!! i should look it up to play next time i do a project lmao i feel like it would rly change the game

I'm so early! Exciting! I think you look and act like a cursed forest fairy and I like that a lot!

you have a metal tin with a goose with a bow around its neck on your bookshelf and my family literally had the same tin in our kitchen as a pen holder throughout my childhood, thank you for that random memory lol

all i could think of during the video was OMG ITS THE FINAL AGNI KAI AND I NEED IT NOW

I see, an avatar of The EYE, (yes, this is a tma reference) also Desolation maybeee, eh 🤷🏻‍♀️

One of the things I love customizing is denim shorts. Reminds me that I need to repaint those. Oof.

Fullmetal Alchemist Pride X Todoroki X Dabi VIBES are Giving !!!!!

Your stuff rocks thank you so much for doing what you do. You’re so smart n creative and aesthetically pleasing all the way around.

Always Awesome to see more Kira OriginalTM garments

Ngl when Kira said Moth, eyeballs, and fire, I was completely expecting her to draw one of those moths that mimic eyes on their wing patterns, but made out of flame and with extra eyeballs
