i've always had great luck using paint markers on my leather. they're cheap, come in multiple colors, easy to apply, and once your let it dry (takes a few hours) it never runs in the rain. for bet results i use a few coats.
I would suggest purchasing some fabric glue.
When I did most of my patches, I glued them on, and then I went around the outside of each patch with a needle and thread, for a little bit of extra reinforcement, and so it wouldn't look as wonky. I also found that sewing around a glued patch is a lot easier and less nerve-wracking than sewing a non-glued patch on.
Good luck!
Haha, yes! I own Metal: A Headbanger's Journey, and also watched Get Thrashed! while working on my vest. The guy who did A Headbanger's Journey also came out with Global Metal. I can't say how different it is yet though, I haven't opened my copy yet.
I use fabric glue on all of my patches before I sew them on because I don't like using safety pins. Since it takes about half an hour to dry well enough to sew it on, it gives you enough time to set/reset the patch just the way you want it.
This is the brand that I use: https://www.amazon.com/Dritz-PRY-653111-653111-Liquid-Multicolor/dp/B0018NA0F8
I've gone through three tubes so far, and it works great!

I like this one, it's also really cheap now that earache removed the shipping prices from their products. Their whole store is good

I haven't personally used these, but I've heard of them, and they seemed to get a good score.
You could always make one? Avery sells this sweet printable iron-on paper that I use to make patches of stuff I've drawn, etc. I just print it out, iron it into strong fabric (twill works nice) and then hem the edges. It looks a little rough so I dunno if that's a style you want for your jacket but it's always something to look into.
edit: Here's a link to the type I use on Amazon USA
Looking good man!

If you want black denim, you can get them off of Amazon for pretty cheap. I have one of these with the sleeves cut off.
In the spirit of DIY info sharing: The patches were sewn with whip stitches of Coats Extra Strong upholstery thread using a mid-size upholstery needle to punch through the denim. I've been holding things in place with quilting pins while working (and dumped a whole box of them on the floor at one point.)
Also, the Deathspell Omega patch at the top right of the back did not have any red in it when I got it, but I just used a red Sharpie to fill in the flames/tongue and balance the color side-to-side.
I get residue sometimes. Just get a piece of clear tape, stick it on the residue, and it'll peel right off.
I use this stuff:

I recommend this water soluble pen. I also just found out about water soluble stabilizer, ordered it but haven't used it yet.

Amazon has two on their website, this is the cheaper of the two.
I bought one of these off amazon a few months ago and it's a decent enough vest for cheap.
It's this one the surplus green and grey (charcoal) one.
Here ya go
Fabric glue stick is prefect for holding those edges down

I use this upholstery kit as the regular thread was prone to twisting and breaking and the needles weren't sharp enough for some places when the denim was double or triple thick.
I used a little Liquid Stitch on the non-iron on patches to keep them in place. Once it dried I stitched all the patches as normal. You don't need much.
