Great effort and perfect for the challenge. I think the image is underrated. I can't understand people giving this a 4 or less. But then again, even ribbon winners get 1s, it's a weird world.

Did you really chop up all those pencils? The lighting is a bit harsh on the left side and the right side of the frame is in the dark

WOW, that must have taken some time to construct... :)

You either had this model laying around and were waiting for the right time to use it or you might just have a little to much time on your hands. Overall I like the idea and the setup but I do think that you could use more light at the top of your image. I like the pencil shahings for the center lines very creative.

not sure about the gun concept...maybe consider a badge as the pencil being a cop...but very unique...nice work

Funny set up, but this is still communicating a pencil to me.

OMG THE TIME!!! how much time did it took to make all that set? nice work- different.

Hehe, so cute. And what an effort! Awesome. 9. (Would have been a 10 with more interesting lighting. Something that would have made it look like a scary, dark alley in the middle of the night, for example.)

Lol - you definitely get a point (or two) for creativity. For me, if the lighting were different, it would be more effective.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww sho cuuuute hahahahaha You go pencil, you show him who's boss!! 10! For imagination and hard work ;-)

Looking back at it, I think this could've been improved maybe adding to arms on the pencil and the pen maybe doing a matrix move action type of thing? Hehehehehe I love the idea tho GOOD LUCK

Wow, a house made of pencils?! This has to be the most creative use of a pencil! I only wish the lighting were better, but I love the detail on the pencil.

Nice, I think it would be cooler if it was a shootout though, I miss the pens gun. This is very creative.
