Well, the weather finally cleared up enough for me to get pictures... and then they sat in my camera until I had a change to download them and what have you. So, placing aside my shame for not doing this sooner...

I got my first "Artlight" last month; I asked for a Whippet clone with a 5-point diamond crown, color-Pecan. I haven't really had a chance to wear it much... yet.... but I am very happy with it.

Good for you, NB-13! Looks fantastic. What I particularly like is the darker edge binding against the pecan felt. Very, very sharp look. Congrats!!! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Cheers,

Bolthead; Looks like they lied about the weather... so far. Did anything hit you?

Indycop; I'll try to get a pic of the coat up soon. It's basically a civilian pea coat.

Jimmy and Razz; Art really has an eye for what works, doesn't he. I only specified the felt color and that I wanted a Whippet clone. The rest was all him.

Spellflower and Ideaguy; Check out the link at the bottom of my first post. I posted a bunch of pictures, on and off my head.

The rest; Thank you for the compliments, which I righfully hand off to Art. I wore it to dinner last night with a brown corduroy blazer. Definately a positive response all around.

One of the finest-looking hats I've ever seen. :arated: Brilliant on all counts - the colour, the Whippet dimensions, the way it looks on you, couldn't be better!

That is amazing! Definitely an A++ in my book! I might have to think about having Art make me a new whippet style sometime...unless I can get my hands on a vintage one...:rolleyes:

Leave town for a couple of days and somebody pulls out another Fawcett. That one looks like a keeper--congratulations!

Hmmm...Whippet in pecan...
