I've been wanting an Emperor to have in my personal collection for some time now. I was able to buy a few from Constant (THANKS!) when he has some for sale. It already has its rightful place on my desk. Finish is MM to 12000 and polished with PlastX. The blank....well I'll let yall take a guess first :cool:

Wow! that is a seriously beautiful pen...and great pictures.

I'm guessing one of your "Fakelite" blanks? That was you, right?
Either way, beautiful... love the black/dark blue with blue and white swirls.. VERY nice..

Absolutely beautiful pen. As far as the blank, it has such depth and sense of movement to it. The colors tie in perfectly with the kit. Thanks for showing. Doc

One of the hottest looking pens I've seen in a long time! The blank is truly amazing...your own I imagine from the looks of it. This truly has a WOW factor to it!

Excellent work. I love the depth of that pour - you could just stare into it for hours! (If you don't mind the semi-demonic face staring back at you of course :eek::biggrin::wink:) Color is fantastic (blue is my favorite) and fit with the kit is astonishing!! Home run!

I like the pen A LOT, but what I am looking at is the perfect mix of white opaque with the blue tint or mica. Someone can say it is beautiful which it is but someone who mixes or has tried to mix resin really knows how nice that blank is.

I know right...Any chance of seeing these on exotics in the future or what partner? This IS a high end pour for a high end kit! Again, amazing stuff Jonathon!

That is just one awesome blank and pen you turned there Jonathon. Looks alot like bakelite.

Keith "mrburls"

Thanks Keith! Coming from someone who has turned quite a bit of bakelite that means ALOT!

That's a HOME PAGE pen! Beautiful and probably my favorite of all of your blanks I've seen so far.

:biggrin: I'd love to see it up there myself

ok soooo tell us already what the blanks made of????

The blank is one of my creations. It's definitely not the easiest blank I've ever made, but thats what makes me appreciate the final product so much more.

Well...lets just say I have some large batches to make and I that I was on the phone with a nice salesman from Wisconsin yesterday...:wink:


Thank you to everyone who has enjoyed this pen as much as I have! This is one I am most proud of. My casting has jumped up so many levels in just the past few months and it's the people here that give me the inspiration to do it and to try new things. :handshake: :highfive:

Ahead of the curve. Waaay ahead.
Really outstanding work. Minor argument with the kit, but if you can churn out more blanks like that, I'll definitely be on the look out for them. Really superb. I'm glad you "Resinators" are working out how to make pen blanks with a great pattern all the way around.

I think the cat escaped from the bag, so let's say Dawn and I look forward to adding Johnathon as our newest partner!!! I have often recommended him for "custom" pouring---we hope Exotics will allow him more time for pouring and he will enjoy the chance to create even MORE new ideas!!

Look for his blanks soon--we will certainly let you know when they arrive!!!

Thanks for saying "Yes", Johnathon!!
(I still miss Shea on the forum!!)

All your pens look spectacular Jonathan.

Looking forward to seeing a few of your blanks up at Exotics.
