Arthur Morgan's hat

[BenOrsonLeather]

Holy smokes!  I need that hat!  I’ll put it on my “want to do list.”

Older post but damn. That’s nice. Did you wing it or did you try out a pattern?

Thanks!

This one was with my own pattern.

I've made a hat before with a pattern from Dieselpunk but the hat didn't fit right so I redesigned it. His cowboy hat pattern is to round so presses one the front and back but leaves a gap on the sides.

I wouldn't say the inside is downright ugly, not at all. It's the inside of a hat, not supposed to be nice.

Now the outside? That's b-e-a-utiful! Been making a hat in my mind, never built one with my hands yet. I hope it turns out half as nice as this. Nicely done!

I tend to be nick picky with the things I make. I'm always looking to improve, not only what I do but how I do things. The suede I used for the sweatband is too soft and tends get floppy, so when I take the hat off the band turns inside out. next hat I make I may buy the correct sweatband already made.

Nice job. Have you used 5 or 6 ounce leather before for a hat? I've used both 2/3 and 5/6 and, for me, 5/6 is just too heavy.

That's definitely my style of hat. Did you do anything inside? Sweat band, liner?

I'm a bit of a gamer and I've been wanting to make the hat for the character Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption 2. 

I used 6oz vegtan and Resolene as the finish.

How much would you want for one of these? I've been looking everywhere for a custom Leather Arthur Morgan hat and haven't found anything, please hit me back with a price because I'm willing to pay quite a good price for one of these
