Copper Phase

[08K.80]

I finished the pen with the Phase blank I posted.

There isn't any sun, so I tried a light box based loosely on the tutorial I read.

That didn't do much good for me, I still can't capture the colors. The color changes from a purple-blue-teal and it runs all through the blank. It shows mostly toward the nib in the pictures, I think it's because of the shape and the light, but it goes all they way to the finial.

I put it on a copper sierra... I have a friend that likes copper and this seemed fitting.

And a closer shot of the blank showing the purple.

A couple of more pictures to show more of the color. In the attempt to get the colors, it makes it look grainy.

I think these will look great on a full size Majestic or similar.

Nice blank! I agree, it really does look good on the copper kit. Nice fit and finish too!

Kelly, That is "freakin Awesome", I love it.
Wish my blanks turned out somewhere near as nice as yours.

Kelly, I do not know what you can do to capture in a Photograph, all the colours and textural inflections that your blank exhibits when it is rotated around numerous axis.
It is much like an Oil Spill, where you have to move to different positions to observe the breadth of colours and layers it possess.
Your Blank, on the Copper Sierra is Glorious
Congratulations,
Brian.

I really like those second images they show the beautiful finish that you have on this pen.

Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate everyone here and I wouldn't have continued this craft if it wasn't for the great people here and the encouragement.
Because of all of you, I have people asking me for a pen.


I have some other casts to get finished first, but I plan to cast more of these... maybe not this specific combination, but I have some other ideas and other colors that Phase.

Watch for the other Phase colors. :wink:

I have spent more time looking at this pen than actually writing with it. Watching the colors is mesmerizing.
I had a few people wanting to buy it and I kept telling them it is mine. Just kidding around one day, I said you couldn't afford this pen, I won't ever sell it. This started a bidding war and in short, I sold it. It sold for $175.00 and I shined it up, boxed it, and hand delivered it today.:frown:

Outstanding pen. The blank is perfect fit for the kit. I like the look of the copper. Fit and finish is spot on.

Sorry George, I had a post a week or so ago. I needed to use up the remainder of my resin and they are all spoken for.:redface:

Thank you Brian and Dan.:wink:
