^ The camels in the eye of the needle is pretty damn cool.
And my favs of the pencil carvings are probably the ones with the heart and key hanging off. Work like that is fantastic... I wish I had the time and tools 1/11/2011 3:09:18 PM |

These are pretty badass! My middle school principal used to make carvings in pencils, but all he would do is Santa Clause over and over and over and over again. 1/11/2011 11:35:48 PM |
