I got my first Indy hat today! I am currently working with the bash to get it to stay perfect. Its a second hand Christys from ebay, only cost me £30 so a bargain, and great for a first!!!
I went straight to my Mrs's makeup kit to put some dirt and bash definition into it, as we all know a clean Indiana Jones fedora is not an Indiana jones fedora!
whoooo!

Looks very nice from what I can see (a bit more distance works very good for photographing hats)
Did you go for a LC bash?
Congrats, that´s really a nice bargain!

I think it's the first of many too 
:D:D
yeah. tried the raiders bash, but it won't hold very well, probably due to being second hand, it's a bit floppy, I told the seller it would need a re-shape.
the LC bash seems to work with it, I can't stop playing with it, those pics were like 'first half hour of it arriving' pics, I just couldn't wait!
cheers guys

....scores!
Not a bad looking Christys. Great deal. About 2 years ago, I ordered one and the thickness of the felt made me think it was close to the SoC hat, thin and very pliable.
