Need a Blank

[IPD_Mrs]

My wife this year has been giving her employees a pen for their birthday. This month we have a fellow that is a die hard Bengals fan. I was wanting to do a pen in the Bengals colors and have yet to find a resin that comes close to the colors. Personally they need to change their colors to black and white prison uniforms.[]
If anyone knows of a resing blank that comes close to the black and orange could you point me in the right direction.

The Legionnaire from CSA is too gold.
Berea's AA-03 might be close but I was looking for something more like the AA-11 as far as pattern goes. The AA-43 has too much orange.

I know I am being a little picky, but the guy runs our Fantasy Football league and that is a big task, so I want to do something nice.

Any and all help is much appreciated.

I wouldnt mind one or two of the same kind but not for the Bengals as they suck but... Because the Harley Davidson is Black and Orange as well...

I was looking for one and it just never appeared for me so I did a different one for the guy and he loved it as well.

But again is there something with the Black and Orange?

I have turned the AA-43 and it actually does look a lot like the bengals helmet. PM me if you would like me to send you a pic.

This is AA-43. Looks good if it's not too orange

There is a blank that was included in this group buy that looks a lot like Harley colors. It's Neon Nights. Not sure where the blanks came from but you could drop Dave a PM and ask. The ones I bought had more black than is showing in the picture.

Beartooth Woods can supply you w/ Neon Nights, and its one of our favorites. Harley people love it, as well. Having said that, I doubt if it would be apppropriate for the Bengals colors, as it is a BLACK blank w/orange swirls, and pearlescence....not nearly enough orange presence for Bengals, IMO.

Not enough orange. AA-43 is better.

Woodturningz has an orange Inlace Acrylester that works well, but it requires segmentation w/one that's black to be really there.

Tiger Lucite from Pipe Maker's Emporium aslo works pretty well.
