I've used this mechanical pencil to draw everything over the past fifteen years or so. It's so comfy to use, but it's falling to pieces and the time has come to replace it. I feel weirdly emotional about letting it go-- it's been with me across many momentous life changes over the past decade or so. I think I might even have still had hair when I bought it! I was going to upgrade to a fancy and expensive new pencil, but in the end I opted for a new one of the exact same make. It's super effective and comfy to grip, so why change up?

I hope you put it on the mantlepiece or got it framed.

I agree with Agent00Soul don’t throw it out keep it maybe frame it that has so much history in it

Never change a working system!

It’s the littlest things that mean the most and so many great things were drawn with it. I totally get the emotions. It’s been responsible for some great things. I’m looking forward to what the new one brings.

Wow... This old fellow helped you make my teenage years more incredible... Thank you. And may you now finally rest, old warrior...

I know how you feel. I used the last of my green colored pencil that I've used for years.

I'd put it in the recycling box, but after reading the comments here, I've decided to keep it!

The teeth marks alone tell the stories of many hours of drawing and probably likewise with your thumb nail 😛

Why not rework the pen into a work of art? 🤔

Why you never upload again on the kemono app?

🫡 Quick unrelated question -- any updates on the 90s animated Betty transformation? I know it was in the "Coming in the 2026" post and that it's not end of 2026 ofc but just curious.
