Here's that solid opaque version of Ion Storm. I like how it looks! It'll be on the table at the Atl show in a couple of weeks.

Just finished with this one. A commissioned Charleston with a custom Graffiti paint job.

Playing around with some stupid expensive chameleon flakes. So far so good!

I also made up a solid color version of Ion Storm (right set of blanks in 2nd image). I saw how well a material like this was received in Baltimore and wanted to do more. These will have no pearl/sparkle. Only solid vivid colors. I'm excited to see how they turn out! Hopefully in time for Atl.

Mixed up some new candy pearl colors for the Atl show! These will have more of a MOP sheen instead of the typical sparkle. Can't wait to get into them. It's going to be a grueling few weeks to get ready in time 😑

Already off to a great start! Spotted @penaddict in Atl and now have to share a flight with him. Luckily he's right in front of me so I can mess with him throughout the flight. 😂🤣😂🛫

Recently finished commission. Charleston model made with a modified Fire Opal material. It's usually much more translucent, but they asked that I make it a touch more opaque.

Recently finished commission. A Charleston model with a custom paint job. All done with an airbrush. I tried something different with this...a dry pigment technique. Typically the pigments are mixed into a clear base paint and sprayed onto the pen. For this technique I only sprayed the clear base onto the pen. While still wet I'd use just the air of the airbrush to blow the dry pigment onto the pen. This created a really cool pattern. All the color are automotive grade chameleon pigments. So depending on the angle it'll flip between copper, gold, green, and blue. But in random areas which is really cool. Pics really don't do it justice!

Just arrived!!!! From @robertostersignature - Carolina Blue fountain pen ink. These will be available on the website hopefully by Monday. I'm upgrading my shipping setup so I can lower shipping costs. That'll get here Thursday or Friday. Then I'll have the weekend to do lots of writing samples. I'll post an announcement with the date and time of the product launch.

Charleston model - Purple urushi with black organic overlay. Thank you @drjmvitolo for the excellent photos! This color is so difficult to capture.

I'm so glad to be back in action! January was just horrible. Flu, upper respiratory infection, strep, and ER visits didn't make for a productive month. These are two pens I hope to have finished later this year. Identical Prospectors from @newtonpens made for M1000 nibs. One in rose gold and the other two tone rhodium/ruthenium. The urushi has begun and I can't wait to see how they end up! Stat tuned for these and many other projects coming up soon!
