Another awesome build, but to me the best part is the painting. I have a lot to learn on the several layers, combining colours to give a highlight, but most importantly, that just a little bit in certain areas is better than a complete overhaul of a single colour.

Loved the idea of this build from the thumbnails across social media. Finally got to watching it and really enjoyed the build too. Didn't know you double glued, or that you seem to use super glue more than contact cement. Nice use of varying foam thicknesses too. Definitely using these templates to redo my own SUPER HEAVY cardboard one I did a few years ago! Cheers

Wonderful instructions! I just found your site and have subscribed. I want to make a top hat similar to the one Depp wore in Alice and Wonderland, which means the top needs to be flared. Can you give me a suggestion on how to do this?

@SKSProps

Thanks! You’d want to make the top circle first then have panels probably 6” that taper down to a smaller width to get your flair at the top

Heck yah!!!! I always thought your sideburns were part of the hat 🤷🏽‍♂️

Love this hat! You are super talented and creative! Can you tell me how I can print the pattern? I found the pattern but not sure how to scale it to a regular printer…or would I need to take it to a print place? Any advice from you or the community would be awesome! Thanks 😀

@@SKSPropswow, quick response!!! Thanks. I’m guessing it’s some trial and error, but once I get the flare correct, a little heat can make it bend for the right effect?

Hey Steve, thanks so much for all of your videos! They are very helpful. If you don't mind answering 2 questions, I would appreciate it immensely! 1. What RPM/speed do you use on your dremel typically? 2. Does using Plasti-Dip get good coverage on builds with lots of folds like that ribbon or does it leave gaps?

@SKSProps

2 жыл бұрын

First off thanks! I set my Dremel or Foredom to the highest speed it can go I want to say 35000. I do several light coats of plasti vs 1 or two heavy coats that makes sure that it has even coverage and won't run which can happen if added to thick

Steve, i am so happy to find your top hat pattern! I am a costume designer who specializes in victirian and edwardian costumes. I always have a hard thinner find ing good quality top hats in buffet budget. How do i print off your pattern.

How do you flatten a foam roll, it always happens to me and it makes things not line up right.

@SKSProps

2 жыл бұрын

I lay mine flat with several sheets on top of each other. Usually a couple of 10mm on top. If you want to be faster you can add a little heat with your heat gun and roll it the opposite way that will reset the foam to its normal state of wanting to be flat
