Captain Robert Rackam Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) I made this hat from flat felt and I am looking for opinions on it's appearance. All comments welcome.

hurricane Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 It seems a bit minimalist, especially since the image isn't there. It's showing a local path to your desktop, hence its absence from this site. -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

William Brand Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 It's hard to tell from the pictures. I tell you what...you send it out here and I'll wear it around to a few places. Let the public feel it out. See how it sits. After a few months, I'll do a full wrtie up and photo essay and send it back. Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 It looks quite dashing, suh. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Lady Alyx Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Wow did you block it as well? Purple felt? ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Robert Rackam Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) I did block it as well, took a few weeks off and on. Would have probably taken 2 days if I could have worked on it straight through. Actually Brown felt though the lighting does make it look a might purpley.

Blackbead Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 BY THE GRACE OF GOD AND ALL THAT'S HOLY!!! I mean, yes . . . quite nice! It is difficult to tell exactly what it looks like because of the angle of the shots. Is it a bicorn?
