    Default New Slimline - Second Clear Casting

    Hi All,

    This is a slimline made from my own clear resin casting (the second ever clear casting I've made). I just noticed in the photo there's a bit of plastic still stuck to the ball of the clip... It's been removed from the pen now... Doh!

    Comments appreciated... I want to learn.




    Cheers, Chrome

    Steve, your style and colors are very 'Picasso' like, in his abstract paintings. A bit of blue here and there in the mix and you can call yourself 'Picasso Pens' !

    Thanks for the comments guys. Pariss, funnily enough we're thinking along exactly the same lines, before posting here I posted elsewhere and I described this pen as the 'Slimline Monet' and is the first in my 'Impressionists' range celebrating the Paris artists movement of the 19th-century.

    Cheers, Chrome

    You did a great job on the casting Chrome. It looks brilliant The colours are wonderful too. From the palette of van Gogh
