I really like that! I'm not too fond of how busy the heavy segmented stuff gets, but yours is just the right amount of 'interesting' without being overdone. I really like those Retro kits, and you've done that one proud. Nice work.
I made this pen using Redheart, Cherry, and Coccobolo wood. I did the glue up using CA glue because I was out of wood glue. I followed some of the suggestions from other memebers in the library forum on how to make a segmented pen. It was all trial and error. I learned a lot about what not to do the next time I try this.
