From what I can see, the pen is great. May I suggest a less busy background so your work is not lost in the clutter?

Nicely done. For the antiqued look try black acrylic paint rubbed onto the surface and then wipe it off before it drys to it stays in the edges and rivet depressions.

Are your rivets raised? Sometimes it's hard to tell in photos.

I realized how busy it looked after I posted it, thanks. The rivets are raised and there is a compound called rub and buff that was put on the tape used to give it that greased antiqued look.

nice pen, but would this really be an example of "Steampunk"?
