My First Emperor (new pic)

[DWK5150]

Well here is my first Emperor made from Craft Supplies Amber Marble Celluloid. Celluloid is pretty tough stuff my frist time turning theres. The red in the blank is actually a mistake but looks good. I colored the tubes with a sharpie marker and when I applied the CA it turned the marker red on the tube so I left it and figured I would see what would happen when I turned it and well I kinda like it. Comments welcome.

Looks good Don

It looks great to me! Did you paint the tube white with the sharpie or some other color?

Actually, that blank does look better with some red. Goes great with the gold too. I have made two Gents pens with it and wasn't stunned like I was with the others from CS. Try the Tobacco as it is really nice.

Looking good. Really like the red shade (especially since it was a mistake) on the blank. The pic has a yellow tone on my screen, use your software to lighten it up a little andI think you will see a great difference.

I like it Don. I think the red actually blends in really nicely. Wish my mistakes worked out this well.

Hi Don,

That is a fantastic looking pen! I really like the red in it. For a moment there I thought you were going to tell us your mistake involved a little blood in the mix! []
