This is Alumilite with a thin CA finish. Self cast with some great depth. Red, yellow and orange with the tubes painted black. Streamline components were used. Comments/Suggestions are appreciated.

Very high shine on that. Is it just the lightening or are the two ends very different in color? Just looks like the clip end is much darker than the tip end. Either way it still is a nice looking pen and a good casting.

Thanks!
The picture enhances the difference for some reason, but they do appear different. It's like the CA glue turned white on the lower barrel and didn't on the upper. My next one, I will be painting both the hole and the tube to eliminate the CA glue factor.

Was that a vertical cast? This picture on the right kinda looks like it was from a vertical cast, but I'm not sure. Either way, that's a nice blank & a nice pen.
