Intricate carved pencil sculptures

Hungarian artist cerkahegyzo uses a most unexpected medium for his intricate sculptures: pencil leads. He carves the tiny figurines and seemingly impossible chains using needles, razor, blades, and polishing stones. The sculptures are a relaxing hobby for the artist—he works as a tool maker during the day.
