Triton on Blue Autumn Harvest Blank

[micharms]

There are a few mistakes in this pen but generally I am pleased with how it turned out. The custom centre band is too fat but since it was the first one I've made I can accept it the way it is. This is also the first custom finial I have made. The blank has acorn caps, butternut husks and hemlock cones cast in Alumilite mixed with Cerulean Blue and Blue Silver Star mica powders from Coastal Scents. It is difficult to capture in the photos but there is pretty good depth to the casting. The photos also aren't my best effort but I wanted to post them.

Comments and criticism are welcome.

Thanks for looking.

Yup; I can see all of the mistakes in this pen, Michael!:biggrin: (Just kidding!)

Looking like a great pen from my vantage point.

Sharp looking pen. I especially like the custom cap.

Thanks. It was my first custom finial and I was happy the way it came out. It makes it interesting when there are embedded objects when you do the caps.
