Here is my latest pen. The blank is a black with gold matrix Tru-Stone on a Canadiana kit (Ultra Cambridge). C and C welcome. Sorry about the photography but I need to get a new camera that has adjustable settings.
Your camera is taking sharp images, you could greatly improve your pictures by using better lighting. Get a table lamp and put it near your piece, it will make your pictures 100 x's better. have a play with this pen and see what you can do as an experiment using a lamp
