Experimental pour....Baron rollerball

[SDB777]

Been playing in the mica powder again....

Can honestly saying this is probably not the right hardware for this blank, but not like I can try it on before....is there an APP for that yet? Kit plating for your turned blank....hmmmmm?

Anyway, this is for today. Reverse painted the blank Cherry Red and used normal turning tech....

Oh well, thanks for looking! Thoughts about the color combo?

That's a really nice red!

 

[Bigj51]

I like it and think that the color combo works!

I think the colors including the chrome go together. Is the red really that red and if so is it mica or the cherry red tube?

 

[Mack C.]

I'm in love with red, wish I could see the finial!:wink:

 

[watch_art]

That's gorgeous.

 

[MattTheHat]

Wow, that's nice!

That's a nice bright red pen Scott.

I believe the red is over-the-top due to the reverse painting of the blank the brighter colored cherry red from the rattlecan(BTW, rattlecan reverse painting of a blank is a messy way to do things-get yourself a glove...DAMHIKT:biggrin

I believe the mica powder used was the Blushing Rose, while it is intense, I don't think it would have been like this if black or some other color were used inside the blank?




Thanks, I like the red too.....hard to misplace something that is screaming "I'm right here!"

I once owned and restored a '57 Corvette...bright red. I really enjoy bright red pens.
RED RED RED RED RED RED RED, and RED!

 

[Twissy]

Love that combo! I think the cherry back paint is the one for this!

 

[BSea]

Now that is a great looking red. Do you have another blank to show what you started with?

 

[MarkY]

I don't know that chrome isn't the best hardware for that blank... IMHO gold wouldn't work at all.
Maybe black Ti or gun metal would be nice...
Great pen

 

[Knucklefish]

Nothing wrong at all with this combo. I like it alot!

 

[biednick]

I like the pour, maybe replace it with black titanium hardware?

 

[Bowl Slinger]

I think that its gorgeous!

 

[mikespenturningz]

Really nice Scott.

I drilled and reverse painted(for the first time) 3 of your blanks tonight. Will be posting them maybe tomorrow? I keep looking at your site for more pours...

 

[Johnny Rodriguez]

Love it

 

[chriselle]

Stick a little dab of tape over one end of the blank before your spray paint...take it off soon after....no need for gloves.

Very nice looking pen!
