I need the hat brim thickness to go downward. But solidify modifier makes it, inward. What is the solution?

Extruding makes the original face gone, I can't use that method either. The only think I can think of is to copy the brim and then connect the vertices manually.

Is there another way?

  • Change the solidify offset to +1 to make the thickness go upwards. You may need to check the 'Even' setting to get a consistant thickness. – John Eason Mar 20 '22 at 21:57
  • Not working. The result is similar, the different it's steep outward. – Juan Feju Mar 20 '22 at 22:08

  • apply the scale on the object, if not modifiers show strange behaviour... go object mode and press Ctrl+A > Scale, then reset solidify modifier values and try again... – alambre Mar 21 '22 at 01:51

I am not sure what you want, but you could try this:

first delete the solidify modifier, then select these:

then Shift-D -> Z -> move down as thick as you want it

Apply the scale, lower down the thickness and it will work fine. Also it's always better to correct the normals as suggested by Chris.
