Another try for the 1st pic: Silverbelly front/side view.
Rabbit, that oxblood is one good looking hat.
ETA I'm also really liking the sahara; I may just have to copy that one.
My oh my Sir, you got 20 posts and 6 VS`s! Are you hiding anything else under your belt!? Good on you though, and a brilliant collection! Your taste in ribbons is exemplary and I hope you reach new heights as the posts wear on...
A very lovely collection of modern hats! The colors and design choices are wonderful. I do wonder a bit about the brim edges - they appear a little uneven in the photos. I have never had the pleasure of seeing one of these in person.
Thanks for sharing,
Alan
Im hoping you can help me. I just received my second hat from Art. I think the heat warped the brim a bit. Its a 2 5/8" brim. It is a bit mis shapen, and doesnt have that curve upwards in the back. I have steamed it a bit, but still cant figure out how to shape the hat properly. I was hoping some of you might have a suggestion.
I did learn a nice trick from Art on pushing out the center part of the crown with a teardrop finish. Use a softball. I actually redid my crown, and I am pretty satisfied. I just need to work on that brim now.
