Used 3Ds Max
I created the map for the journal lines in photoshop.
Note that the material on the metal parts of the journal is taken from the pencil materials. (5 years and 2996 days ago)

The sun in the background does not correspond with the light shining down into the letters. The upper 'e' and 'd' are too light on the bottom and along the inside top, and the lower 'd' is too light on the RH outside (about halfway down) for as low a light source as your background.
MossyB, thanks for inspiring me to recreate this one. 
I like this incarnation much better.
Hi there, Author, did you able to add more (20% or 30% Opacity) highlights to edge of the word "RED"? It will definitely give the word more stand out (ofc a little, not too much) from the background. 
Good luck on your entry!

Nice little render and phone, but in high res it looks as tho you have some pinching and pulling just by the extended oval shape,Maybe some stray vertices? Not sure with out seeing a reference image.
Looks dangerous to me. Nice work!
Beautiful work! Best of luck!

Wow! Great render! Specially on the bottle... Anyway I'm not sure about the cloth though.. It appears transparent or something like that and it sort of ruins the great concept for me personally.. I don't know if it's just the material you used or something else.. This is just my opinion anyway.. it's still a fab render !
Nice work, the bottle is so clear but I am unsure on the cloth
hot classical goodluck

Good job! You beat me to it. Nice modelling and render.
Really nice work, down to the subtle wood grain on the pencil tip.
The overall lighting is a bit too bright, but the excellent rendering makes that a somewhat moot point. Very well done!
super nice!
Thank you all for the wonderful comments!
I get the feeling a few people will choose this one for their model. Mostly this is accurate and a good job
Thanks :P Yeah it seems the simplest one yet it still has some challenging parts to model...
A good one. I like the texture work.
Congrats for 3rd
