OK, here it is, the worlds ugliest cactus pen! This was an experiment that, needless to say, went a little astray! It is so bright in person that it almost hurts the eyes!

I Like it! That's not ugly - it's vibrant!
The cacuts showing through reminds me of aged paint that's cracked and showing the color udnerneath. What a nice contast with the youthful vibrance of the color.

My mother keeps telling me that and I haven't quite figured out why yet. [

I am sure it will appeal to someone, but I agree, it isn't as eye-friendly as your other work.

Might be an ugly cactus pen, but it is not an ugly pen.
I think it is cool looking.

curtis,
I think it looks fine...dont be so critical of yourself. Of course, thats what we all say.

It does look like the blank is cracking or the finish is cracking. Actually I like it. I think it will definitely appeal to someone. As far as bright, there are a lot of people that like bright colors. It's all a matter of perspective, if I made that I'd be bragging. You think it's ugly because of the your other pens are so amazing.

I like the look. I bet the ladies would snap it up at a show.

No one could ever steal that one. Just have NASA track it from space.
Looks interesting.

Ugly! Are you kidding, it's great. My son told me that "pink is the new black" so you be stylin' bro.

Tell him no, no it's not. An 'popping' your collar, also not cool. Johnny Cash would be ashamed. [xx(]
Colors aint cool for a guy, but I bet the women would love it. Lower barrel looks a hair underturned at the CB.

I would definitely not kick that pen out of my case...and if it is looking for a nice quiet, softly lined place to lay its vibrant head, just send it on........LOL....How about an Aqua color to match it...the color reminds me of an old Packard Automobile Paint Color called Rose Quartz...One of my favorite colors for the 1955 model year.....

I dont think I have ever seen Sky say "thats a very nice pen" without a "but......" Dont be so picky.
Skye

If there's a "but" in there, I'll say it.
I dont think Curtis will lose any sleep over it.

Curtis,
Ah, you've done a Tuscadaro pen (Fonzie's old girl friend, Pinky). I'll bet it sells though.

That pen is cool! Market it as a power pen for women executives. In fact add a few more colors, all equally vibrant, to the line. Lime green, bright aqua, lemon yellow. RED. Royal blue. You are on to something hot there buddy!
