This is right out of the mold. I haven't skinned or polished it yet.
I tried to capture the colors...green, teal, blue and purple. It's a chameleon blank and the colors shift while moving the blank.
I hope to tube and turn this before too long, but there are other things that
need done first.
There is a lucky person that will be getting one of these...

Do I look lucky enough to get it? Huh? Huh? Looks cool!

Neat idea, like the color change - what type of mold do you use?

That's pretty slick, the idea of using chameleon materials will really make this blank pop. While in Germany a lot of car guys would do this type of paint on their cars called "Flip-Flop" and when the sun hit it the paint would jump out at people. Really amazing stuff. This will look amazing. Great job

This was done in a silicone mold.

My wife just made some nail polish using this stuff and... awesome!
Of coarse, I'm the test subject, but it comes off. I'll have her get a pic.

It looks just like it does on a car, just a slight movement and the color shifts.
There are four distinctive colors and the blends between them. Purple, blue, green, and teal are dominant.

I've cast some before using a different material, but the blank had to be flipped from end to end to see a big difference. This is the real deal and changes with little movement.

Looks good so far, I will be following the progress

Awesome. Can't wait to see a finished pen out of it.

Here is the nail polish. This stuff is a little glittery to me, but I will be testing some more of a smaller particle size and get rid of the glittery effect, I hope. It also needs a topcoat to make it smooth and shiney.
This is good for nail polish though, so I'm told.

I'd love to comment on the pictures, but all I can see is that signature of yours! :biggrin:

(Kidding aside, my (probably ADD) brain does have trouble reading your posts because of that signature)

Gee James, you have some aweful purdy toe-nails.

Those are some wicked cool blanks.

If it's getting your attention, then it's working.:biggrin::wink:
Now I think I'm going to make it flash.:tongue: JK!

Thanks Mike. It's actually my pinky finger, but perhaps I should have had her do a toe. Maybe that would have eliminated the funny looks I've been getting.:redface:

Those are some wicked cool blanks.

Thanks Ken. I hope there are better ones to come.

I have turned my laptop upside down, on the side, back and forth and I don't see the colors change. I guess I don't have one of those new 3D models. :biggrin::biggrin:
I like the colors tho'
Can't wait to see the pens.
