"Stained Glass" Artist's Sketch

[akbar24601]

My youngest daughter Amber is by far the most artistic of my children. So, I thought it would be cool to make her one of these artist's sketch pencils for Christmas. This is a 5 color Acrylic Herringbone pattern with CA finish on a 24K kit. This was my first time doing the HBone in Acrylic. It wasn't too shabby.

A special thanks to Kruzzer for running this stuff through his sander for me.

Thanks for lookin'. By all means, I welcome your comments. :alien:

There you go again, making my head hurt trying to figure out how you do the herringbone pattern :biggrin:

The pen looks great Steve. I'm sure Amber will be thrilled with it.

Dang man, can nothing be simple?! Great looking pen. I don't know that I've seen herringbone done in all acrylic before. Very cool.

Very nice, I really like the look!

BTW, I haven't done one in acrylic. So, I'm pretty sure your the first.

Shouldn't there be a "z" on the end of glass?:wink:

Nice work!

That is too funny!!! I knew someone would say something. Don't think I didn't think about it, just decided to go traditional is all.

Nice color and striking combination. Obviously very well put together -- I'm sure she'll enjoy it.

That is a very nice pen.

I have made 2 of those kits so far and they went to my daughter and her fiance. His was cocobolo, and hers was curly Koa. I need to make more.
