TomSwede Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Love this hat Tom!! I saw Froghunter and the others too and they all look great but I really like the "sinister" and "ominous" look on this one. Nice job Tom Quote Confucius - Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without. --------------------------------------------- www.1eye1.se blogg.1eye1.se

Members yan Posted August 4, 2009 Members Report Posted August 4, 2009 One of the best top hat I ever seen. With a worn english cloak XVII century and mean looking cane you'll be the main attraction at a convention. Quote

AndyL1 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 Another amazing piece Tom! Thanks for the diagram on the assembly too. It looks very finished doing it that way, especially the top connecting to the crown. Nice and rolled over. Thanks for the inspiration!

Members fishguy Posted August 6, 2009 Members Report Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Never mind, I actually went back and read the post extremely cool I think one would look good with some of your faux brass steampunk devices attached. Edited August 6, 2009 by fishguy Quote
