Thanks, Mr. E! Ivory you think?
i'm down for a Lonnie fedora!
Personally working on my own belt and holster set and leather hat testing.
Indy hat in seude can now be a thing if I get the shape right in 3D model to press stamp.

I think he ment that he is doing leather hats, but can do indy's hat if he found the correct material to make it. And that in the meantime he has indy belts being made.Looks really nice mate, but Indys hat is made from felt, not leather. He’s not Crocodile Dundee!

Felt at this scale would be too risky... I've seen synthetic hats from stevos toys that are just too thick. This suede I have mind you is thin suede split from lambskin. In a sense it's has the look and feel, I just need to find the right chemical to press stamp it that will let the suede hold it's shape.Looks really nice mate, but Indys hat is made from felt, not leather.

If you want one pm me, I'll probably be doing another 3.0 soon as per this pic:Since you're feeling crafty though...How 'bout bringing back those awesome holster and belt sets?!!

I want real leather of indi fedora, that would be epic!
Nice job on the belt / holster sets... My only advice / tip would be add one more "stud" on the whip keeper in a slightly smaller diameter above the snap stud.. If you're going for 100% screen accuracy - the whip keeper in ROTLA had that one extra stud up towards the edge of the top of the strap.
