    Default Couple of Knights Armour in Trustone

    Hi all,

    Made a couple of these for my display cabinet, Knights Armour ballpoints. The first one is Antique Brass and is dressed in White & Gold Matrix Trustone. The second is Antique Pewter and is dressed in White Turquoise Trustone.
    The Trustone was turned to shape and then MM through the grades. I then used buffing compound and both a flannel and cotton wheel to buff the Trustone to a nice lustre.

    Cheers
    Tony

    both look fantastic Tony, if i had to pick one i would go with the antique pewter, only because i am not real keen on gold

    the truestone goes great with that set of components
