Three more pens made recently.

I had been trying out a few less conventional design pens. These came out better than expected.

29 January 2018.
This is an over sized pen with rounded end finials, the shape of end finials was inspired by the cap worn by the Thompson pairs of Tintin comics. If this pen is made in production I would name it Thomson.
Black and speckled yellow acrylic material, Jowo 6 nib unit and Schmidt k5 converter. There is provision for fitting a clip,but commercially available clips are short for this long pen. Chosen a slip on type snake roll stopper. The pen is made cap posting capable, however it may not easily handle with cap posted

Hope you like the less conventional design. Welcome comments and criticism.

This design is a new tryout and I feel quite happy the way the pens turned out.. Clip-less model with clip fitment provision kept in the dark pen, slip on snake type roll stopper.
The pen is relatively simple to machine, 17 mm straight cap with 14.8 mm straight barrel with  4 degree end taper. The section is 19 mm with concave grip, quite ok to hold. Short and stubby looking but overall length is more than that of a Parker Sonnet.
Jowo 6 nib unit and Jinhao converter fitted.

The acrylic material very high quality and it machines like ebonite, well , almost. Regret the photo quality, actually the pens look better.
Hope you like the design. Appreciate comments and criticism.
