    What a fantastic pair of pens I am sure they will like them.

    What is the darker one made from is it also an acrylic or a dark wood

    Very nicely done Brad. I like the straight lines of the blanks as they look classy. I really dislike the way some people put big bulbous blanks on these types of pens.
    Did you coat the inside of the white blank with white or some other colour?

    Cheers Dalboy, they are both polyresin blanks that I cast myself. Colored with Pearlex powders.

    Cheers Dallas. They are both backpainted, black with black paint, and white with white paint. The white blank has quite a bit of texture and depth.

    Re- the shape, yes I don't go much on the bulbous look either, I like to turn my blanks to compliment the flow of the components.
    These are slightly barrel shaped, about 1mm thicker at about the 3/4 mark closest to the finial end, and tapered to meet the components.

    Yep, nice proportions.
