Pen and blank compliment each other, a lovely finish. I must try it, a step up from fiction polish me thinks.

Great looking blank, but the finish looks a bit rough.

Maybe the photo Les, I'm not the best of photographers but in the hand it looks fine and a whole lot better than the pictures, I thought it was 1 of my better ones with melamine!!!
Then again maybe not lol.
Can see where you are coming from, but being a cast / mixed blank it's difficult but it's certainly better than I have ever done with that type of blank.
