In Addition to the Universal Bash Guidelines, the contest rules are as follows:

The trademark of this contest is that it has the most freedom for creative design.

The Rules
1. It must write.
2. It must be made by you.
3. You may use any and all tools at your disposal as long as you are the one that operates it.

The spirit
This is the contest where we stretch the boundaries of our craft and put more emphasis on the concept and the design than on function. We are looking for the pen that inspires pen design for the next year. In my time as a member here I have seen space ships, modern rifles, medieval weapons, musical instruments, spongebob, a hat with a feather in it, dragons, a stack of animals that were carved out of brass, lab equipment, and others that at present slip my mind. All of these were works of art that also happened to be pens. This is what we are looking for.

Entries
Complete the Entry Form, and be sure to complete ALL fields. Please describe your pen as thoroughly as possible, and use photos that are 800x600 dpi, and less than 256 kb. Judging will be done by the pictures you provide.
Contest will start Monday, Feb 1st and entries will be accepted through End of day (11:59 p.m. CST) Tuesday, Feb. 16th.
