Reverse Engineered Object Progress Week 2

From last weeks problems, I did manege to fix the arms and get them more Lego like.  I managed to fix this by doing a combination of the sweep and loft commands to get a more accurate representation. After completing the arms I moved onto the hands which I have two different versions, which neither are 100% accurate.  I need some feedback before I decide which one works best for the project.  The gun was somewhat tricky to get the perfect bend in the handle.  I did manege to do it, however I could not get everything to Boolean union together, especially at the bend.  The last problem I ran into was exactly how to model the cowboy hat with its organic curves.  As you can see, I got part way there but it just became way too complicated for me that I just could not continue.  Looking forward to getting these problems fixed as the hat is the last project to model.
