Excellent job, though I think it needs a closing trapezoid there on the tip.

Try an area light to fix up the shadows.

Other then that, it looks really good!

The handle's fantastic but the blade sucks, try making it a
much darker grey and give it a bit of irid.  

Nice work.

Just got a look at some screwdrivers at a Wal-Mart store.  This is actually
very close to a Stanley 3" slotted type.  The basic handle and tip anyway,
not the neck part.  It actually does go straight at the tip, no trapezoid.
Oh, and no end cap for the handle like I was thinking (only a Popular
Mechanics set had metal ones {for hammering on? well I do}) although ithey
all seem much more rounded.

Heh.  Even though the little screwdriver I was working from didn't have a
cap on the end I think I'll put a metal one on anyway.  I also have occasion
to hammer on the ends of screwdrivers from time to time, sometimes wrecking
them, and we are free to render objects the way they *should* be!  Thanks
for the idea.

    Either that or if they ask for a screwdriver, send them a chisel and if
they ask for a wrench send them a hammer.

What's a chisel?
And how'd you know I drive nails with a wrench?
