Unbelievable lead Pencil mini-sculptures! Starting with carpenter and art pencils containing thick leads, Russian artist Salavat
Fidai uses an X-ACTO knife to carve miniature renderings of hands, buildings, and various characters from pop culture.
The delicate process requires a good
understanding of how much pressure the lead can withstand, but even then mistakes are inevitable. The Ufa-based artist is fascinated by all things miniature, and also paints on seeds and matchboxes. Watch the timelapse video in the comments
section to see his process for carving an entire replica of the Eiffel Tower.
A big Thankyou to Abinaya Sts for these photos
