The water proof Gent I

[Jjartwood]

At least that's what I've been told,that a Bull Frogs A$$ is water tight.
This little beauty was made using a Bull Frog hyde that I got from an Exotic leather sight.It is considered on of the "sea leathers" but I thought frogs lived mostly in swamps. If I'm not mistaking the legs were not on the hyde so this may be some by product of someone's opening course. (YUM???)
In either case it did make an interesting looking project. Again it was put on a chrome Gent I. cast in clear PR with holographic dust and massaged in the usual manner.
Thanks for looking
C&C welcome.

Cool green color.

Very interesting. I'd like to see more of that blotchy bright green in the pen to give it a little more contrast, but it does look good.

Now that's a new one for me! How was the casting process? Anything unusual?

Not really, just wrapped it and poured

That is really different Mark. It looks great. I like the images where we can see the different colors in the hide. Very cool...

A Different Pen Mark,
A Most Unique Blank.
It sit's well with the Chrome Gent.
Your Fit and Finish, is Superb.
I trust that you didn't Kiss the Frog, to see if it turned into a Prince, or Princess.
Hope you didn't have to Glue it to the Bench to take it's photographs.
Mark again it shows that you are keeping a Jump ahead of the rest of us.
Brian.
