Pretty nice! It reminds me of Lee Van Cleef and Rooster Cogburn! Totally a gunfighter's hat.

Thank you. I'll take that.
Thank you, B. Finally found one that will do this.

Just did some work on my Spaghetti Western hat - I just used sandy beige acrylic paint with wet water along with hot water to add it in for that dirty Spaghetti Western feel to it.

Thanks very much, it does look sandy in the pictures. Hopefully, with my complete costume, it'll rock great.

Resistol 3X, 2-cord ribbon & a hand felted edge. I'm thinking the color might be Palomino.

Hello folks, first time caller. This is my first attempt at a western weight build, but was as satisfying to make as a cold can of yoo-hoo on a hot summer day. Ironically, it's strangely reminiscent of a can of yoo-hoo.

Worth - Walden 15X with a 4 corner crease.
Done right from behind a 4 corner crease always reminds me of the classic lines of a boattail design on an automobile.

I'm drooling at the crease on that hat, Jack, and the curves on those cars!

Thanks Steve. I'm in the mood for that custom Buick Riviera at the moment.
I'm more into the first one, Jack. Is it a Rolls or a Bentley?

I feel the Riviera missing from this lineup is a gross oversight.
I had the opportunity to buy a 73 and passed it up. Still regret it to this day.

Johnny, number 3 in the lineup above is a 1971 Buick Riviera. Perhaps you didn't initially recognize it because it has been extended & customized, belonging to a rather famous musician/car guy.

Ya got me. Looks like a modern custom job/concept car with the fins underneath and everything. My mistake.

Got to love spring in Alberta. Smithbilt Scout again taking care of some recycling and compost.
Love the hat, Johnny. Not sure I feel the same about spring in Alberta

Sort of like how Billy's "Cadzilla" compares to an original 1953 Cadillac. When you see Cadzilla in person it is absolutely beautiful!
