Univ of Tenn request

[alamocdc]

I had a graduate of the university ask if I could make a cigar in the school colors (and he picked the shape). I don't have any orange pigment, but I had some orange Inlace Acrylester scraps and I had recently cast some Chrystal White so I decided to try another PR glue-up. About half of these end up really cool (read all over the shop in small pieces). [:0] Occasionally I get one to stay together. This wasn't one of those, but I found the pieces and I'm stubborn. Anyway, here it is... Chrome Cigar in University of Tennessee colors (I hope!!!).

And a view of the back for those who are interested.

Pretty nice if you like UT. Great job on the pen as usual.

I like the shape and the back view. I would be tempted to rotate the clip to the 'back' of the pen to make it the front. Can't say that I care for the colors as I am a UK fan []

I like the "back" view too. Nice job with the laminations!

 

[alamocdc]

Thanks, guys! The front view looks like the back except that the oval is on the lower barrel and the candy stripe effect is on the upper.

HI Billy,

Cool shape on a very nice pen...Being from Canada I am not UP on the significance of the colours, but they look great in this pen!![]

You did a fine job on the pen, but there ain't near enough yeller to be for UT. []

Go Gators!

Of course the best colors are maize and blue, but for UT very nice looking pen!

Great job, Billy. Can't say I think a lot of their colors though.

Pretty neat Billy! Almost looks like two completely different pens that are pictured. Very neat how from one view it's angular and from another it's curved in terms of the designs! [][]

As a VOL fan, I have to say I love it!!!

Billy,
Thanks for the 2nd pic. I always like a view of a nice back side (of a pen folks). Anyway, this is a really awesome pen and even though I am not a fan of orange, I'd carry this one. I like the look all of the way around. I think I'm getting tired, at least my jokes are.

Shoot, Rob, I prefer the view of a nice backside over a pen any day! [}]

Beautiful work, Billy. Of course purple and gold would be better.

Geaux Tigers!!!
