The two burls are gifts for my dads boss and his wife. He says they are very outdoorsy (i think its a word) and this is what i came up with for them. I hated to put that afzelia burl on the slim, but thats what he says she would like. Too bad too, you should have seen the figure it would have had in a cigar! The cigar is a gunmetal with a buckeye burl. first time ive used this wood, and i was plesently surprised by the sunburst on the upper barrel.
the next one is a reproduction of the pen my brother in law designed. aparently its a pretty popular one with the guys around here, cause ive gotten a few orders for em. i think im gonna call it the G6. just a thought. anyhow, this one is a little better. i collored both tubes with a black sharpie, and refined the shape a little.
the last one is a Christmas gift for my father in law. hes a diehard snomobile guy and is emfatuated by his ski-doo rev. he had asked for me to look for a black and yellow pen blank for him, and this is what i came up with. Blank and black chrome sierra click is from Bear Tooth Woods. First time ive dealt with them, and im definately going back. i wanted to do a black background, and all we had in the house that was black was a garbage bag. not sure if i like the shot, but out of seven pictures taken, this was the best.
comments and criticisms welcome, but thanks for looking either way!
