This was a Christmas present for my mom, who is not much of a fountain pen user. It's made from some swirly blue/purple acrylic that I had in my blanks box, which I don't remember the name of. The clip and nose cone are both fabricated from stainless steel, which was an adventure. The pen uses a pilot g2 refill.

This was a lot of fun to make, as I always enjoy making rollerballs.

Another pen well done! I'm always a fan of the sculpted look. Plus, absolutely superb work on the nose cone and clip. I might be wrong, but that blank looks like a lot like the Grape Escape blank from Woodturningz. I've made a pen from a blank that looks just like yours in the picture, and I believe that was where that was from.
