This was a fountain pen I was commissioned to do over Christmas. The tube was hand painted and cast in resin. A lot of fun to do! Thought I would share. Sorry for the bad pic but it was done on my phone.

Magpens. The painting was done on the tube. I used 3 different types of paint. Acrylic,a medium and a French paint I have as well as different textures brushes. There were probably 6 different layers. The thickest was the first layer and the rest of them were really thin and translucent to get that affect. It is hard to remember how I got the final product cause I can't remember everything I do when I paint. I keep adding different things until I get the result I like.

Mark. Thanks for your comment.
