    Default Screwdriver

    OK. It's probably not the most stunning drawing you've ever seen.
    But, it was quite a challenge.

    I was talking to a friend of mine and explaining what the drawings are that are done from a scribble, as a challenge.
    So, he decided to send me his scribble.

    Whilst I can't argue that it's not a scribble, I was hoping to have something that you can work with.
    Something that you could use in three or four different drawings.
    Well, he did throw out the challenge and I couldn't really not do something with it.

    So, I hit upon the idea of making a broken tip of a screwdriver.

    That's almost cheating. But very well done.

    I like it Rik. Far and away better than then the stupid clamp thing I invented and submitted for the May scribble which no one liked.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Well, the first thing that sprang to mind, was to do a comical sort of car or a jeep.
    But, that's not the sort of things I like to do!

    You deserve credit and he should reward you with a Screwdriver cocktail.
