It's not bad at all ! . I really like the blue color with the wood.

I know how dark Wenge is ... and hard to photograph.

If you love to work with wenge then you need to learn how to turn it. It is a very chippy wood as you can see from the ends of your pen where it meets the components. It is a very oily wood also so you will learn to wash with acetone before adding CA to it or any other finish. May want to take some of the bulge out of the body also. Also need to make sure you clean the blank before adding CA to keep white spots from appearing. You chose a hard wood to learn on. Good luck.
