User Item Review #3 Spooky Spider Top Hat

As Halloween is approaching, so are the user item designs! Flooded the catalog, but one item stood out because it was unusual. It had a statement. It meant a milestone. The hat I am speaking of is Spooky Spider Top Hat.

The creator of the hat is SharpTH. It is common among Roblox hats that credit is not shared, because we don't care about credit(the makers), we care about the fact that it is shown to the world. He didn't care for credit, he just wanted it made.

SharpTH made the mesh in 3Ds Max, a widely known 3D rendering and development tool. He developed the texture, then shared it on a forum site created by Shedletsky named Ironnoob. Shedletsky noticed it, and he knew from that point on that it had a chance of it being made. He has been making more and more items with 3Ds Max, and inspired others too, including me. SharpTH made his stamp/mark in Roblox, and it's history.

The hat itself fits well with the style of Roblox. It shows how much Roblox has evolved through its share in the industry of gaming. It's design is simple. It shows something new. Something put together. Something Roblox stood for. It showed creativity. Simple words for a simple item. A milestone so big, yet so small within the community of Roblox. Most users of Roblox don't know about SharpTH's achievement. They just think it's another hat made by a Roblox admin. It's amazing how something so big is small to a community so big. Also note that in the pictures the hat is actually supposed to be a lot bigger then it is. Pics:
