Another Stasis Resin I finally got around to finishing

[Drstrangefart]

And here it is. I used blue paint from Dollar Tree that I darkened up with blue food coloring. Not the BEST paintjob ever, but it worked. I had some nastiness with this one. A large hollow spot formed while the blank was curing and it was of course in the perfect spot for the drill bit to find it during drilling. I back-filled it with CA and crossed my fingers and it was UGLY. I got a pick out and gouged it all out pretty deep once the barrel was close to finished, and added silver PearlEx and CA to it. It's not a dead perfect match, but it's pretty hard to detect now.

Should I venture a guess that this one didn't turn out so hot? If so, what was the swing and a miss on? Color combination? These are things I do want to fix.

No Allen -- Your description covered it --

You put together a decent pen -- looks good allowing for some reflectance in the photos.

A change from your series of long Slimmies

Yeah, photos just aren't my thing. I did have some lighting issues. Should be an easy fix next time I bust the camera out.

Hi Allen, nice pen. I think the photo is great. I'm learning as well to take photo's to post.

Your imagination never ceases to amaze me.

Thanks, guys! I always look forward to feedback be it good bad or indifferent. Helps to not get caught up in how great I might think my ideas are.
