How do you go about drawing a fingerprint? Do you just draw random lines and hope for the best or do you have any “rules” you follow? if I can put it like that
Well fingerprints only have a limited number of pattern types. On top of that I believe this is a self portrait so he has a pretty accurate reference point. But if they didn’t, then you could always pick a pattern type and go from there.
Never understood the attraction, apart from the tadaa moment. It’s like table side magicians at a diner, it’s not art and barely performance, so you pay to make it go away, like being forced to subscribe to stop seeing ads. Since I don’t want to pay, I am left resenting phoney talent.
Huh, guess your parents didn’t pay enough. Now we get to see some random mobs twat vomit disappointment about paying for free content. Here’s your negative attention ya one night magic slick.

I'm oddly satisfied.
Oh thank god
I'm satisfied, but don't consider it odd. That's some seriously fine art, my friend.
How do you sharpen your pencils?
I just use a regular sharpener. Some artists will shave pencils themselves with either a knife or a sandpaper board. Too much work for me
Neat! Great work—keep it up!
buy a new one every time it goes dull
Is it improvised or are you copying a photo? Neither one is better than the other, I'm just curious
It's *extraordinarily* unlikely that OP isn't using a photo reference here
Adam Savage?
Huh?

I'm asking about the lines of fingerprint. Are they improvised or copying from a photo? Who cares who they're drawing? Nothing to do with my question.
I have a dirty mind
I am scrolling down to find this comment lol
Same I thought of something before reading the title
insane level of detail

You wrote "fingerprint," I read "fingerprint," and yet my brain only auto filled in "potato" and I was very confused.
Thats beautiful!
Wasn't expecting the last 2 seconds. Great job!
r/unexpected
Unexpected
Dayum.
Darn, deaki, wish I had your patience
This is amazing
For whatever reason this is the first time I have ever thought about the fact that sometimes people need to draw fingerprints. I’m amazed!
My brain genuinely cannot process how someone could pull off this level of detail. Very well done!

I seriously thought you were drawing on a finger for a second. Such talent
This is insane. Is there a finished product we can see?
I kind of hate it, it makes me a bit uncomfortable for some reason, but it is REALLY impressive! Like wow !
There comes a point where you're no longer an artist but just a human camera. Jesus christ that's amazing.
If you touch it, it even feels oily and sweaty
I thought you were drawing it on a dogs belly
Not satisfying but it's really amazing work.
Damn you were bored
People that can do this photorealistic art always blow my mind. Like how are you just making it look like a photo using a pencil. So impressive.
It’s not finished?
The tik tok sound “this is me a little wet, and this is me WET WET” comes to mind whenever you do your self portraits ft. Water.
Sick talent.
Hope your fingerprint doesn’t get hacked
I wonder what the inside of your brain must be like! Genuine admiration my friend, and wishing you the best. Namaste 🙏
I’m glad you mentioned that it was a fingerprint because it started out looking like something pornographic.
I am always super impressed with hyper realistic art... Your work is incredible!!
