I had some play time!

[Ron Mc]

I actually had a few hours this evening to play. So, I decided to pull out some hardware that I have been considering for some time now. I wanted to create a design that both complimented the curves of the hardware yet was sophisticated and elegant.
The pen style is a Jr. Retro that is gently dressed with blood wood, holly, and African ebony.

As always comments or concerns welcome.

 

[wizical]

nice work, im curious on how you made the curves

 

[GaryMGg]

She looks somewhat like the Bloodwood & Maple we collaborated on -- only much nicer.
I think those are my three favorite woods together.
Great looking pen! [8D]

 

[winpooh498]

Very nice, I think that the design complements the hardware wonderfully! I like how you made the body of the pen less busy, but still complementary. []

 

[DKF]

That is very, very nice!....

 

[Dave_M]

Wow, very nice job. []

 

[TBone]

Very sharp looking pen. The contrast of the woods looks great

 

[leehljp]

My three favorite and most used woods in pens. Beautiful ART!

 

[ahoiberg]

nice job ron!

 

[Ron Mc]

Kevin,
Consider a pen blank as one of the few moments that a straight line is now a curved line.
Take several pen blanks to your saw of choice and start cutting at angles, glue them together and have fun.[]

 

[Milpaul]

Great pen, picture, and choice of woods.

 

[R2]

Oh WOW! I hope my playtime ends up with such fabulous result![][][][8D]

 

[mick]

Ron, you've done it again! You know where I'll be tomorrow evening! []
BTW fantastic pen!!!! Love the color combination!

 

[jhs494]

Very nice work. The colors work very well together and the contrast gives the wood it's pop...
Excellent.
