This is another Omega. A gold rollerball and I've dressed it in Thuya and finished in CA.
I have been blowing hot and cold with this pen. When I first saw the kit at York I liked it but when photos of the finished pen started appearing on the forum I sought of went off it as I wasn't sure of the finial and the pen holding section. However when I received this one off Dan I liked it again.
I don't know if this is standard gold or the upgrade version but I can't fault the plating at all. When turning this pen I just followed the natural contours of the pen but looking at other members photos where they have altered the shape of the barrels I think this pen has the versatility of the slimline where it can be altered as necessary !!!
The quality of the kit itself is superb and along with the Roman Harvest - Pristena and the Lucida I will put it on my "preferred list of pens" to stock !!!

Looking forward to when thay all become available so over to you Dan !!!!

[QUOTE="Terry, post: 94079, member: 61"] This is another Omega. A gold rollerball and I've dressed it in Thuya and finished in CA. I have been blowing hot and cold with this pen. When I first saw the kit at York I liked it but when photos of the finished pen started appearing on the forum I sought of went off it as I wasn't sure of the finial and the pen holding section. However when I received this one off Dan I liked it again. I don't know if this is standard gold or the upgrade version but I can't fault the plating at all. When turning this pen I just followed the natural contours of the pen but looking at other members photos where they have altered the shape of the barrels I think this pen has the versatility of the slimline where it can be altered as necessary !!! The quality of the kit itself is superb and along with the Roman Harvest - Pristena and the Lucida I will put it on my "preferred list of pens" to stock !!!
