Hobby Hacks: Pencil Crystals

September 2024·p. 35

THE SHORT VERSION

Thomas Lojewski turns inexpensive pencils into angular base crystals by sharpening, carving extra facets and cutting pieces to length. The example is primed pale, tinted icy blue, highlighted and glossed to suggest translucent ice. A nearby note broadens the search for basing materials to textured plastic, cork-like board fragments, filter beads and dried birch seeds.
