This is another pen the way I like to make them. It is a Rhodium Jr Retro with scallops made of maple burl and red guitar pics same with the bands on the barrels. The main body is Logwood with maple burl in the center. The copper is 1/16". It is finished with around 13 coats CA sanded and sanded again through all the colored pads then polished with Novus heavy and light. It was fun to make and had no mishaps.
Thanks for looking. Comments bad or good welcome.

You want bad comments - I'll give you bad comments... I hate that pen because its way too beautiful.

Seriously - There might be someone who doesn't like it (I don't know anyone) but wow I cannot find ANYTHING to critique at all.

Thanks everyone. It really is fun to do, sometimes aggravating... sometime infuriating.
The final is metal of some sort that comes on the Jr Retro`s from LauLauwood.net It`s to nice I think to replace it.
