Creating a drawing that actually looks like the intended subject is hard enough using plain old lines, but a drawing made up of tinier drawings? And that doesn’t look like a complete jumbled mess? That’s impressive. And that’s just the kind of work created by Ah Leung. The Hong Kong-based artist fills in his drawings with references to the subject or his city and the result is a beautiful piece that can be appreciated from far away or close up, but looking exceptionally different either way.
Check out some our favorites below, featuring familiar characters from Star Wars and Dragon Ball, and see the rest on Facebook and Instagram.
