This is a Black Ti JR. Gent on one of my home cast blanks I'm calling "Silver Surfer". I painted my tubes white as well as added white pigment to my epoxy to cover the brass. MM to 12000, One Step, buffed with Tripoli and White Diamond, PlastX polish, and a coat of Ren wax. This has become one of my fav blanks that I have made and I love the look on the Black Ti! The photos do not do this pen justice! I need to put a 30sec video on youtube to show how the colors dance and move all around the blank! As always any comments/questions appreciated.

Nice Home brew, what does it look like with the tubes black?

Looks Good, I like the silver surfer name!

I was torn between painting them black or white. The blue is a little darker and the white lightened it up a good bit. I was telling my fiance last night that I wondered what it would look like painted black. Looks like I'll just have to cast some more of them (not a bad solution). Here is a pic of the un-turned blank and you can see how it looks like a bunch of waves all throughout. I like coming up with all the wierd and sometimes unrelated names for the blanks we make. Thanks everyone for the compliments thus far.
