Midnight Ice Imperial

[UKpenmaker]

Got home from work tonight too see that a parcel had tried to be delivered. So hot footed it down to the post office, and much to my surprise it was my order of Italian resin blanks, that Steve Roberts has shown on this site (they got here in 4 days).

So i had to try one, ths one is the Midnight Ice with a Blk TI Imperial kit. A real PITB to try and photograph, the actual pen is more blue than in the photo. I will have to try again in natural daylight.

That is quite elegant, Andrew![^]

Very pretty. Actually, I like Billy's term better...elegant!

 

[SteveRoberts]

Very... very nice, the ice that is. And he is right the photo won't do it justice.

Congrats on the fast service from the postman.

VERY nice. That's a combination I may have to make. Except in the Lotus, methinks.

Hey, that's some eye candy!

BTW if you want to mimic natural daylight, go and buy at Lowes a compact florescent screw-socket light bulb that is rated for 6500K. Some bulbs are called "daylight" but don't buy it if it does not expressly say 6500K somewhere on the package (may be fine print on the back or bold on the front, just never know). 6500K is the closest thing to natural daylight we can produce. I use one of the cheap incandescent clamp-light fixtures (with the big metal cone-shaped reflector) for my photos. My problem is the cheap camera.

That is the calssiest looking version I have seen, IMHO. You should make one in black as well, thats what it looks like in the photo, so you know it will be a success!

Fantastic pen Andrew, love the blank![]

 

[OSCAR15]

Fantastic Andrew! Where did you order the blanks from?

 

[blodal]

Elegant is right. The dark blank with the Blk Ti really makes a classy looking pen. I have been wanting to try that combo.

 

[wags54]

Very elegant!

 

[Radman]

I'm not really sold on that kit (yet) but your selection of blank to go with it is changing my mind. Nice work and great looking pen![8D]
