Ron, do you get your cactus locally? I am going to be in Chickasha this weekend and would like to pick up some if I can find it laying around.
You will be 20 miles from me!! (And the cactus!!) I have a private patch that i am currently harvesting from, but it grows wild all around me! (2,000 acres) I can't share the private patch because it is in someones front yard, but i would be more than happy to take you out in the field and help get some! It is tricky to find the right stuff in the bush, but you can find it if you look hard enough!
Give me a PM if you wanna come out! You will need THICK gloves, a machete, some boots, and something to carry it on or in. (tarp or burlap sack or something).

Ron, I like the concept......I like the red cactus with black paint! However the black cactus with red paint just doesn't flip my switch.....just my opinion and we all know about opinions :wink:

That's pretty cool. My little boy would flip for a 'spiderman' pen.... I agree with Toni about the resemblance.
Thanks everyone!!
I actually like the black cactus with the red paint. It reminded me of "Venom" from the spidey comics. they are fun to do, but you have to reapply a bit of dye after you turn the blank. I think the red cactus would look better with a different color of paint underneath. Maybe White or something. With the black paint, it seems to lose alot of depth. The black cactus on red paint has veins that run under other veins. It looks really cool.

got to admit the black on red does have more definition. maybe it's the shade of red that's not grabbing me. I struggle when casting or painting blanks finding a red shade I really like.
