    Wonderful images. The color drawings are beautiful.
    My mind is churning overtime speculating on how he gets these things to line-up so perfectly. There has to be a technique beyond just good drawing skills.

  2. Warren Terra says:

    This particular picture sort of reminds me of David Macaulay’s Locating The Vanishing Point.

  3. These are really great. The first caption says, ‘Belgian artist Ben Heine blends photography and pencil sketches to create imaginary scenes. He explains: “I find a location, do a drawing, then take a photo to combine with the drawing.”‘, but it seems he must have the photograph first and then lay the paper over it, to get things to line up so well.
