Leftovers

[Brittleheart]

Made from a Kallenshaan "leftover" blank, by painting the brass tube with Jo Sonja iridescent acrylic paint, then inserting the tube into the blank and casting it in clear resin. This was then turned back to fit the pen components and leave "windows" in the blank, finished with a couple of coats of CA and polished on a buffing wheel with white diamond compound.

Comments and critique welcome.

That's just cool. Now I need to figure out the poor man's version.

Really amazing look! I love how the laser marks add a contrast between the wood and the color of the tube. Great looking pen and concept.

It looks like the laser marks also add depth.
