Ribbon PR SoftGrip

[Draken]

Here's a soft grip done in homebrew PR using the ribbon technique. Made for an interesting look. I tend to make the soft grips more ornate, otherwise they tend to look store bought if done barrel to barrel, especially in PR. All comments welcomed and thanks for looking. Sorry about the glare in the photo, forgot to turn off the shop lights.

Striking. There's some talented turning in that pen. Nicely done.

I want one! great work on the turning. I know from experience how difficult "plastics" can be to turn.
Your bead work and finish are first rate.[][][8D][]

It looks like you worked all of the kinks out of your ribbon PR. Nice looking! []

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone. I've managed to keep it hidden from my wife so far, otherwise, I'd never see it again... []

Actually, this is from the pour I asked about on the forums awhile ago. It was supposed to be red and blue with white ribbons, but the red and blue mixed a bit and I ended up with some purple. Even the plastics can surprise us. [}]

Great look to an otherwise bland kit, James.
