I’m a huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan. I remember when the movie came out but didn’t watch the show until it was no longer on the air. I’ve made up for lost time by watching the entire season when I can’t figure out what I want to watch. Needless to say, with all this talk of commemorative pencils I started to thinking, “What would a BtVS tribute pencil look like?”
Would it be a #2 Faber Castell American, like what she used to slay the vamp while studying? Or would it look like a stake?
For this pencil modification I chose the stake route.
Materials were as follows:
- General’s Cedar Pointe #1
- L.A. Looks Endless red fingernail polish
I removed the erasers from the pencils and brushed on a generous coating of the polish. At the end I put a large dollop of polish on one facet and allowed it to run down the side of the pencil. Then I stuck it into a box so it stood up and could dry overnight.
I searched for a nail polish called “Harlot” but could not find one, however I think Endlessfits the bill and is the right blood red color.
Why the blood red? “Cause it’s always got to be blood…. blood is life.” 
Anyway, this is my BtVS tribute pencil.
