This Japanese Artist Creates Extremely Hyper Realistic Drawings with a Pencil

It might not surprise you those amazing things can be achieved with pencils and paper, but artist Kohei Ohmori's breathtakingly lifelike drawings are bound to leave you amazed.

The Okayama-based prodigy spends over 200 hours on each project, and his attention to detail is evident. As a result of ultra-thin lines carefully-placed shading, the designs of Ohmori, and also a remarkably steady hand seem as though they're going to jump off the page. They are so immaculate, in actuality, that his Twitter crowd is currently calling him a 'genius' and 'mad' within the quantity of dedication he puts to his portraits. His most recent effort, which has yet to be finished, depicts a nut and bolt, while his 'signature bit' is regarded as a stunning headshot of British model Sophia Blackbrough.
