Another addict teetering on the edge, about to start down the slippery slope of pens. You do realise we're here to push you don't you ?
Nice pens Ben. Watch out for the brass tube showing through on acrylics on thinner sections. We've all done it.

If I had a nickel for everytime I forgot(got too lazy) to paint a tube.....well, I'd have a bucket full of nickels! Sometimes you can get away with it, if the blank have some bronze/tan-ish coloring to it.
Colorful group you have here....and well done on those circuits!

Well you are well on your way but this is only the beginning I'm sorry to say, the fun has only just begun, attacking the bank account will probably be the next step, then trying to justify all the new tools and things to SHMBO, oh yes a slippery slope it is hahah.
