Again - I am combining my Classic Mustang and Turning passion.

The Cobra Snake Vertex was made so the snake was right side up when teh pen was being used.

Yeah the decals are great.

KoKo -
As for the how to - I simply turned the pen down and gave it a finish as I normally would.
Applied the decal - aloud it to dry - then gave it 5 - 6 coats of thin CA
Re-polished and done.

Thanks for the comments

I have have three other pens posted on another thread that have the Mustang Shelby Cobra theme.

Nice pony theme and great turning...

My Wife loves the Mustangs, I had to get her a new retro body style 05 GT she wanted the 5 speed........ wouldn't even consider an automatic.

I got to try those decals......

 

[65GTMustang]

Lupe - They should not even offer an automatic in the 5.0 LOL
Thanks for the comments

Very nice pens. Nice job on the decals. I'm a Ford fan. Do you make your own decals?

 

[Edward Cypher]

Very cool themed pens. Can't go wrong with an american classic.

Craiy - Yes I do make my own details - Thanks for the comments on this and my other recent postings...
BTW - I hope you are posting your work - I saw that you were not going to post anymore because of the limited response. I have had the same experience

The same thing happened with my work until I a finished the posting with "PLEASE COMMENT - Your Critiques are requested"
Since then I have had a great response and learned some good tips on how I could improve the pen next time I turn a similar one.
Please post! In fact I will send you a buddy request if you can accept it I can set it up to tell me when you have posted a thread.

Thanks again to everyone
The nice compliments and the comic relief is great!

Nice pens BTW, can I ask what printer program or clip art program do you use for sizing your decals.????

LIN - I just had to purchase a new printer - my old HP stopped printing any red colors....I shopped them all and did test prints in the store, looking for the quality.
I decide and purchased the HP Officejet Pro 8500S Plus
I'm sure there are much better printers - However in this price range it is pretty good.
The program is Broderbund software - the Print Shop 23 Deluxe - It is about 10 years old so they may have altered the name a little.

Ok, it's official, I'm going to get a color printer. Those are just too cool.

And +1 on the no automatic!
