    Default My Label casting Efforts

    I have managed to finally get some photos of the label casting that finally worked. Many thanks to David (DJpenevens) for all his help during my frustrating times trying to finally get this label casting business to work. I am as usuall interested to see what you all think of them ? I am not happy with the shape of the pens but if you new how much trouble they were to do you can see why I am at least glad they turned out.
    I have cheated to some extent where I have done the background in black to try and hide the joint and have but it under the clip.

    so here they are

    Cheers Ian

    I can't see anything wrong with the shape from the pictures.

    I can see something wrong with the first pen it has a Newcastle Nights label stuck in it I would have gone with a more classier label like South Sydney
