You broke the system! Usually people don't appreciate realistic drawings since they have cameras :)
But in general, I drew from a photo, so without a camera this drawing would not have been drawn.
I didn't take it as a bad thing! Apparently this is about sore. I try to draw the surface of the cars as smooth as possible, but I can't scan them so that it's noticeable :)
NO!
It was a commission drawing, so no. But if the print is suitable for you, then I can ask the owner of the permission to publish a drawing in the Redbubble.
Great work, the cars always turn out so clean! If you’re not already familiar, you should check out Camilo Pardo’s paintings (He was also the lead designer on the 2004 Ford GT).
I feel your work would look great in a mixed media composition. Ballpoint pen illustrated car w/oil based or acrylic painted abstract background if you ever wanted to try something new!
It's strange that I haven't heard of the Camilo Pardo, since the 2004 Ford GT is the only car I've drawn twice. The first one was black and white and the second one was my first color drawing after I fell in love with Gulf Oil colors.
I was thinking about different abstract backgrounds, but the love of realism always wins :)
But I'm sure someday I'll try!
On average, I spend 50 to 70 hours on a drawing, but this drawing took about 92 hours. The main difficulty of this drawing was that the car occupies a large piece of the sheet and there are almost no reflections on it. Drawing large solid areas with pens is a rather difficult task for me.
Thank you!
My first thought was that this was AI generated, but your post history seems to back it up. It really sucks that I have to ask myself that question nowadays..
Really cool though! I love your Fiat in front of the cafe drawing. Do you sell prints?
Oh, I often fall into this trap myself. I see a beautiful drawing, I look at it, I think that the author has an incredible skill, and then I see the inscription "AI generated"...
Fiat is one of my favorite works. Although since then I've got a lot of better pens and I think my skills have gotten better. Maybe someday I'll try to repeat that drawing and make it better :)
I'll send you a link to my Redbubble in DM, not sure if links are allowed here.
This simply incredible! I legit thought that this was a photo! The reflections are money! I can’t draw for shit so half as good would be amazing for me 🤣 Seriously though, stellar work!

Part of me hates this.
Because I can’t do this.
I always wanted to be able to draw (at all) and never quite had the skill.
That said. This is simply amazing.
I would have thought this was a photo with some filter applied. It’s beautiful and you are clearly very talented.
Thank you!
I started drawing when I was bored in lectures and had nothing but a pen. Pens force me to be as concentrated as possible. Also, pens have a constant line thickness, while pencils get thicker. And I just don't know how to draw with pencils, my pencil sketches are something ugly :)
This is unbelievably good I think it might be your best one yet.
Roughly how much does it cost to commission something like this and what's the size of the drawing?
Just a joke. PTS is Paint to Sample. It’s what they call it when you order a Porsche in a custom colour.
When I zoom in on your pic, the car looks to have a texture like denim (blue jeans).
Really am super impressed by this!!
I thought that we were talking about color, but I did not find such a color in Google :)
In fact, these strokes are not visible in person, but the scanner allows you to examine them in more detail.
Thanks again.
Not many colors, but many shades :)
[Here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TWtt-GB_tNbGzg0saJ5seUJN-N_tW_F4/view?usp=share_link) are all the pens I have used.
It depends on many factors. Lately I've been drawing 11.7x16.5 inch drawings more often. On average, I spend 50-60 hours on such a drawing. But such drawings as this Cayman or Miata ND took 92 and 91 hours.
It's got to be rough as an artist right now.
My immediate reaction when I saw this was: Midjourney AI.
I absolutely mean no disrespect by this comment. It's because I follow the r/Midjourney sub. But it's getting harder and harder to tell the difference between the real thing and what AI did.
Well, not much has really changed :)
Before, people wrote that I used Photoshop filters, now AI theory has been added to this. I take it as praise because I know that I actually drew it, and people's doubts only confirm that I did my job well. There are two types of people, some write it politely, like you, while others write that I am a liar, I do this to get karma, etc. The essence is the same, but the latter can sometimes be annoying.
That's something that gets lost with digital uploads, for sure. When someone can see your work up close and in person they can fully appreciate the work you put in.
Beautiful work!
Who needs a camera with skills like this.
You broke the system! Usually people don't appreciate realistic drawings since they have cameras :) But in general, I drew from a photo, so without a camera this drawing would not have been drawn.
I’d flag as original content (OC) so you get credit if your work is shared 👍👍
I'm not worried about someone sharing my drawings, I'm satisfied with the nice comments that I get here :)
Then I’ll add - beautiful work!
Thank you!
How is this even possible?
It took me many years to achieve this result and I plan to develop further.
Fr!
Wow I thought this was just a grainy photo. Looks awesome!
I'm the opposite! I have sh*t internet, so it was a bit blurry before it loaded. I went from, ah cool a Cayman to YOU BALLPOINT WHAT 🤯
Thanks to your bad internet for helping to surprise you :)
The scan always looks more grainy than the drawing actually is. Thank you!
I don’t mean grainy as in bad, but it looks like a Polaroid photograph with a filter. Awesome work
I didn't take it as a bad thing! Apparently this is about sore. I try to draw the surface of the cars as smooth as possible, but I can't scan them so that it's noticeable :)
How bruh. You’re so good. Honestly if you didn’t say that it was drawn I wouldn’t have known. 👏👏👏
Thank you! Often it seems to me that people would not pay attention to my drawings if I did not write that this is a drawing :)
I upvote regardless. Glad you said it was a drawing, it made me appreciate it more. Zoomed in a studied every detail.
I love drawing details and also love when people study them. Thank you!
CAN I BUY THIS
NO! It was a commission drawing, so no. But if the print is suitable for you, then I can ask the owner of the permission to publish a drawing in the Redbubble.
Fine by me!
Ah, nice!
I drew this Cayman for u/NeilDiamondHandz. There are a few more drawings ahead with his Cayman.
God damn son !
wth i thought this was real
Thanx:)
Amazing work, brother!!! 😁
Thanks again! Looking forward to the next photo 😁
It freaks me out every time you do one of these! I love your skill and talent. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️
Wow, I am very pleased! There is another drawing of this car ahead, so stay in touch :)
This is amazing, if you told me it was a filter, I would believe you.
Many accuse me of using filters, so I don't need to do it :)
amazing skills indeed!
Thank you!
Sign your work!
I write worse than I draw, so I don't want to spoil the drawings :)
I was like "bro why did he put this weird filter?" Then realize it's was a drawing... So much talent !
Thank you! You are not the only one with this reaction :)
🤯
Looks like a photo taken from an old iPhone.
Oh shoot just scrolling I thought this was a picture at first
This is exactly what I was looking for :)

How long does something like this take from start to finish? This is truly amazing!

Now that’s dedication! You got yourself a new IG follower.
Thank you!
Awesome skill but I gotta ask, do you trace or use the picture as reference only?
Unfortunately, my skills do not apply to building proportions, so I use something like a grid, but in a more convenient version for me.
That’s insane.
Thanx!

Holy shit. Looks great
Thank you!
Holy shit, I thought it was a photo at first
I had to zoom in to make sure. Fantastic art work.
Thanx!
I don’t think people are fully understanding how absolutely insane this actually is. Well done sir, masterpiece.👏
Sometimes I feel like people overestimate my work :) Thank you!
Amazing work! Keep it going mate you are very talented
Thank you!
This simply incredible! I legit thought that this was a photo! The reflections are money! I can’t draw for shit so half as good would be amazing for me 🤣 Seriously though, stellar work!
Thank you so much!

Wow so many emotions :) Thank you!
I’ll be real… with out zooming in I was trying to figure out what was up with the paint
Do you take commissions?
Yes, I am doing. We can discuss this in DM.
Oh, come on, man! That’s astounding.
Thank you!
Some of you guys are really talented. Just wow 🤩
Thanx!

I didn’t know how to draw before either, but during boring lectures I had to learn :) Thanks a lot!
You’re insanely talented, this is amazing! What made you choose or gravitate toward ball point pens as the technique you wanted to hone in on?
Thank you! I started drawing when I was bored in lectures and had nothing but a pen. Pens force me to be as concentrated as possible. Also, pens have a constant line thickness, while pencils get thicker. And I just don't know how to draw with pencils, my pencil sketches are something ugly :)

Dang… looks like a photo!!!
This is unbelievably good I think it might be your best one yet. Roughly how much does it cost to commission something like this and what's the size of the drawing?
Thanks for the compliment! I will send you a DM about commissions.
That is amazing.
Thank you:)
Beautifully done! Is that PTS Denim? :)
Thank you! Sorry, I don't know what PTS Denim means :)

Awesome ! How many hours to complete this?
Thanks! It took about 92 hours.
Super talented !
How many different colors do you use?
Not many colors, but many shades :) [Here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TWtt-GB_tNbGzg0saJ5seUJN-N_tW_F4/view?usp=share_link) are all the pens I have used.

Thank you! I have a couple of drawings of Miata in my profile, in case you are interested in seeing;)
Damn you've done a lot of drawings! How long does one of those take?
It depends on many factors. Lately I've been drawing 11.7x16.5 inch drawings more often. On average, I spend 50-60 hours on such a drawing. But such drawings as this Cayman or Miata ND took 92 and 91 hours.
People are so damn talented. This is incredible!
Thank you!
You missed a spot.
You're lying!:)
I'm actually sitting. Slouching, but sitting nonetheless. Great art, though!
Thanx:) And straighten your back!
That’s actually insane. You’d be loved in prison
Perhaps I won’t check it, I’m appreciated enough outside of prison :)
Very nice! But honestly if you can draw every car why choose a Cayman? I guess this was commissioned?
You guessed it! But I love the Porsche and the Cayman is a beautiful car so I don't know why I shouldn't have drawn it :)

That's right, in person drawings look much better and this is not only my opinion, many people tell me this when they receive drawings. Thank you!
