Red Raider Jr Statesman, in Black Titanium

[lwalden]

prototype for a potential customer......

may need to go back and drop some of the solid red from the logo......and do more of an outline. Looks kinda busy.

Thoughts and comments would be appreciated

T%hat is avery well made and distinctive looking pen.[][] I would personally do away with the clear nib end to tone it down just a tad.

That is one sharp looking pen. I would like to see what it would look like with outlined letters.

I'll be trying that in a couple of weeks (once our local engraver gets back on his feet from surgery).....

I've got a great local laser engraver (team actually, John and Sherry Driscoll, and they're both pen turners to boot!) I worked with- this was the result of a couple of hours of experimenting, the design is raster cut and then I color filled with Laser-bits red (four coats/layers to get to the final look). I may try red epoxy if doing larger areas again in the future.

Great pen!

I have wanted to do stuff like that but I don't know how the licensing of the logo works. I work for an engineering/construction company and I know I could sell UT and A&M pens all day long.
