Alternative Jade

[winpooh498]

When I ordered this blank from ExoticBlanks I wasn't sure if I would like it. But boy was I wrong! It is amazing! Turns like butter, and the colors are perfect (I wish my photography was). Thanks for looking all comments good bad or indifferent are welcomed.

That looks really good

Another nice one - looks like a mintoe so also good enough to eat!
Really like the blank - the translucent quality and the shine are great.

Again, the PEN looks GREAT!!!

But, did you paint the tubes YELLOW??? The jade is usually a greeny tint.
(or was I NOT supposed to say that, letting cats out of the bag???)

It really is the same greenish color, the color change is due to bad photography. The tubes and blanks were painted with white. I paint all tubes and blanks white, I think it makes them brighter.

Great work on the pen. Looks nice even in the photo yellow. I'd like to see it in the real jade green though.

Beautiful looking pen. I've made a few pens from the alternate ivory which I really like. I think I need to try the alternate jade after seeing your pen.
