Description
The HAT. Krupp's hat. The hat of power and menace. And other dastardly stuff.I kinda cheated this one - bought a cheap crappy white sailor's hat from the party shop. Took off the gold braid from the brim, covered the crown in a layer of wadding, then 8 wedge shaped panels to cover. only... it's a shot fabric. I wanted the panels bias cut to curve nicely. So I had to line up 8 panels on the exact same grain so they all catch the light the same way... took me a few tries... but worth it! also padded out the band on the inside that produces the circular shape as it was denting the sides. Then the shiny band is actually a holographic foil printed lycra, so it stretches to fit.
I am pleased with the hat. All it needs is some studs and something in the centre to cover where the 8 points ALMOST meet perfectly, but not quite.

MUFFINS! I knew I was forgetting something! Of course... We'll make sure Krupp has the power of baked goods in his holster.
