Get out your Ticonderogas ;) :) This thing took me the past 5 days to built, made it as detailed as possible, although the lettering for "Ticonderoga" isn't right, but I'm too lazy, and found a font thats close enough, and I accidentally choose the wrong font for the "121" thats engraved at the end of the pencil...but its going to take forever to fix, so I'm going to get over it...

What do you guys think? any suggestions? I personally think its alittle simple... ::)

BTW - I wonder how it would look in FS ;D

Oh yeah, my teacher thinks that I should submit the model to KubotekUSA and have them displayed on their website (Like these http://www.kubotekusa.com/multimedia/gallery/one/index.asp) (btw, the Drum pedal was made by Scott Steeber (sp?), he went to my school last year...)

Yep, I agree put some wings and a tail on there. But, on the plus side that nose is very aerodynamic. What do you think mach 2 or 3? ;D

That's awesome Jeff!  The only thing I can say needs to be corrected is that I think the pencils are a little more orange.  I certainly would never have know about the fonts!  ;D
