Guys, try to match me up with the "perfect" blank. I sold my first Churchill FP before I even got the kit in, so I have to buy a new kit as I was making it myself. The first one I bought was a nice med grean seafoam from Beartooth. Well, I was thinking that the combo would be a stunning pen, and it will be on that kit, but I personaly am using a deep burgandy ink. So I want to match up a Sterling Silver Churchill with the "perfect" acrylic blank in a deep burgandy that has a classic look to match the Churchill.

Photo's would be awesome. :D

it's not deep burgundy but look at the "black rose" lucite from the pipemakers site. I made a churchill out of it and used the Sterling Silver and it was stunning. It flew off the shelf!
 
Here's one I did, the PR was my own pour.

I used black powder as the base, then added some interference red as the highlights. Silly me, I expected it to come out looking more red than it did. This is on a SS Churchill.

Cheers,

Mick, do you have a link to that site?

Draken, Nice blank but not quite what I am looking for. I want one without sparkles in a flake kind of pattern, but more of a low key swirl.

Hilltopper, I just got their new printed chart with my last order and was looking at that one, but it's hard to tell with a printout photo.
I was also looking at the Red Russet they have.
 
I have 4 froggy burgundy blanks, but mine are much more green than I would consider burgundy....Just might be the ones I got though....
 
Ok, here's a pen I did with PipeMaker's Black Rose Lucite for your reference. The colors on the lucite can vary wildly from piece to piece and even within each piece.

Here's one in the red Russet, which came out much lighter than I had hoped and I hadn't even thought about it being a burgandy. I did NOT paint the tube on this one (but I wish I had).
