peters brothers beaver raiders came in

Post by Bruce Wayne »

I received my peters brothers raiders hat in the mail the other day & I am. having some trouble getting the side creases to look right. on the side view of indys hat you can really tell that the side creases have that triangular crease to them & I can't get that. also, on the same view, the front pinch angles back some & I cannot get that either.
HELP!!!
thanx!!!

I would need to see more angles to see what going on.

I don't think it's the bash job you did. I more think it's the block shape of the PB. I would need to see from the front and slight birds eye view to see what's going on on the center dent.

Yes, I don't think it's the bashing as it's the block shape that they are using.


PM, and I'll give you my phone number and it will be a little better to help you out.

definitely the block from what i can see. side profile does look very nice. as the pinch gets tighter and tighter towards the top of the hat is where it is notticeable with the hat slanting back on the profile. a function of the block, not the bash imo.
