NOBLNG Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) I think some of the work I do is quite detailed and I know some of you on here do extremely fine detailing. Then I see stuff like this carved out of a pencil lead and it blows me away.🤪 Edited August 27, 2022 by NOBLNG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug 1061 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Impressive. That is someone with too much time on his/her hands. I wonder how many tries it took to get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell C Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 https://theminitimemachine.org/exhibitions/on-point-sculptures-on-the-tips-of-lead-pencils/ Saw the choo-choo example years back, entertaining hobby.
