I posted images of the rough blanks for these a few weeks ago but have been without a lathe until the past few days.
A few hours has been spent spinning, polishing and finishing.
These are the completed pens - a dozen of them - all made in acrylic polymer and mounted on these matching Black Chrome Siroccos.
Hope you like them.

Delighted you've managed to complete them Tony - they're looking fantastic. As I said in your original thread when you first showed the blanks, apart from the occasional ultra, ultra ultra expensive blank from the US, we don't see enough polymer clay here. It's a very versatile medium, which without doubt you've just proved.

Thanks Phil - I'm exceptionally pleased with them and inspired enough to make some more of these blanks. I have a number of variations and ideas in mind.
I'm particularly pleased with the way they combine with the Black Chrome on the Sirocco's - (this had been my original plan but I've only just got there).

Very nice! I have to be honest - I would not gravitate toward them...I just want the whole set! Really fine work in a greatly unexplored world of blank making. Congratulations.

I'll be working on a couple of other batches later in the year - so even more choice!
