I’ve Been Training Myself To Draw Photorealistically For 3 Years, Here Are Some Of My Best Works (24 Pics)
Charcoal is the main medium I used, with graphite for the finer details. Every once in a while, I'll use tiny points of white paint for the highlights.

How To Preserve A Ghost Pepper, 2018
"The Bhut jolokia, also known as ghost pepper, ghost chili pepper, ghost chili and ghost jolokia, is an interspecific hybrid chili pepper cultivated in the Northeast Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland and Manipur. In 2007, Guinness World Records certified that the ghost pepper was the world's hottest chili pepper, 400 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. The ghost chili is rated at more than 1 million Scoville Heat Units (SHUs). However, in the race to grow the hottest pepper, the ghost chili was shortly superseded by the Infinity chili in 2011, followed by the Naga Viper, the Trinidad Moruga scorpion in 2012 and the Carolina Reaper on August 7, 2013."

This may be the most talented artist ever featured on boredpanda. This is the pinnacle of artistic talent.
I wish they would post a video of them actually doing the work. Time lapse obviously but it would be cool to see them work
Take a look at his YT channel. ;-) https://m.youtube.com/channel/UClAG_PawcxpjyuS97VPXwqA
Load More Replies...Any other art I've at least got a vague inkling of how it's done. With this...........consider my mind boggled.
Not much you can say about talent like this. It's just beyond compare. Phenomenal.
Incredible, absolutely beautiful work. Can I ask if you use quiet rooms or podcast, music when you work? What inspires this creativity that so many of us envy?
On Instagram @Drawings.by.Dylan he usually do some videos or photo tutorials on how to do some of his tricks

I am in absolute awe of your realistic portraits. As an abstract artist, I can't seem to be able to do such a thing, especially because my emotions move my brushes. Hands down to you! This is amazing work!!!
First of all these are so powerfull portraits dude!!! And the fact that You draw it are just impossible...You are not from here, am I right? :)
I'm not saying it doesn't take talent to do this but really what's the point? Why don't you just use a camera if you want photo realism?
Just give me some wax crayons and I'll show you who's the daddy at drawing
Absolutely blown away by this level of talent. I can't even find proper words.
I need more info, because the composition, lighting, emotions, details it's all so incredible. My gut feeling says this artist must draw from pictures. Still amazing work, but it has to be from a picture. Otherwise this guy is ... is... Otherworldly.
Pfffew... He's referencing from existing pictures. Still insane craftsmanship. Love it!
Load More Replies...The only time lapse I can find - I still can't comprehend that these are drawings - my brain says they must be photos - surely - https://youtu.be/AmrhZf8hx1I
okay, so you have a lot of skill. You're clearly banking on that because the subject matter isn't all that interesting. So why not just take a photo?
I've seen some other artists do this. It blows me away. This is some of the best I've ever seen
Please Pandas! Help shout down the swarm of trolls that are attacking the Jason Momoa piece. I don't know who they work for, (US fossil fuel industry or Russian troll factories) but they all downvote everything written by Pandas and upvote each other. https://www.boredpanda.com/united-nations-small-islands-event-climate-speech-jason-momoa/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic
Well great and well done it's a waste to draw something what in the age of cameras is redundant.
One might as well say all art is pointless if you can't eat it or sleep under it.
Load More Replies...Sorry if this is rude but why are you critiquing such an amazing piece of work? It is the artist's style, as to get more detailed I presume.
