Hello everyone, this is the contest - Pen Makers Challenge - for our Birthday Bash. Here are a few basic rules for this contest.
1. All pens MUST be a newly made pen for this contest. What you do with the pen after is your business [8D]
2. All pens entered must be made to the specification of each contest.
3. All pens must be entered in the alloted time.
There will be four challenges during the month of our Birthday Bash, one challenge each week. Entrants will be judged anonymously and there will be a 1st and 2nd prize for each contest. Winners and pictures will be posted at the end of each contest along with the rest of the entrants. Thanks everyone, now go have some fun and get those pens going!!!!!
1st week - Our 1st challenge is a Segmented Slimline. Use any Segmenting, Materials and Plating you desire. All the parts from the Slimline pen kit MUST be used. Pens must also have shape, please no B2Bs. Good Luck everyone!
2nd week - This week's challenge will be a Modified Slimline made from wood and or stabilized wood. Modify this pen any way you wish but you must use the Cross refill and transmission from the Slimline kit. Be creative and have fun!
3rd week - This week you may use any pen kit you wish, no modifications. Make a pen from wood or stabilized wood that has cracks and or voids. You must fill the cracks, voids with any material OTHER than wood. Be imaginative have fun!
4th week - Make a pen from any kit you desire and from ANY materials you wish, no modifications. You can used multiple materials or just one, your choice. The catch is, you must make a matching pen stand of any shape from the same materials used on the pen.
Please send your entries to:
somethingsomething.org - Jeff can you set something up so the judges and I can see each entry?
OK guys what do you think of the wording now? Specific enough? These questions will be posted separately each week but I wanted you to see them all. Hopefully there will be enough prizes for 1st and 2nd, if not that part of the posting will change. Are there any volunteers for judging?
