ajlafleche Posted October 26, 2025 Report Posted October 26, 2025 (edited) FeR Miniatures’ Navajo, (circa 1923) is complete. I had looked at this kit several times over the years but was intimidated by the box art blanket pattern. I finally decided to get it and looked for a simpler pattern. Pendleton has one with more of a sunset theme and I used that as inspiration, choosing orange palette as a complementary color to the shirt. I did not relish doing a beaded pattern on the hat bad so decided to give him a hairpipe hat band. I made this using four strips of .5mm Evergreen rod glued side by side. This was cut to 3mm sections in a jig I made of sheet stock. The separators were additional piece of the same rod added in long sections to make it easier. Edited October 26, 2025 by ajlafleche
