Stuff like this works best through pictures of the art. In real life your eyes would see the lack of depth very obviously.

Some people have talent and some people do not have talent. That person has talent, I do not have talent.

Perspective and shadow that photographs. Well done
I found the pen set they use, http://www.jetpens.com/Pilot-Parallel-Calligraphy-Pen-Bundle-of-4-Nib-Sizes/pd/14246 for anyone interested

The lighter is real right?
Squirrellyboy
Is anything real? Do you take the red pill or the blue pill? How far does the rabbit hole go? We must decide for ourselves.

Pretty sure the whale is too mate

talent looks a lot like hard work. you can do it too if you want OP :)

Am I the only one that read chick as dick?
dflr
I read dick. Then I was like oh duh it's duck. Then I saw chick and I don't know what's real anymore :(
TheWorldMayNeverKnow
I read duck.

Why do you suppose you did that?
malexmatt
I wish I could do this. I have a health condition that causes my hands to shake any time I try to do anything delicate. Fuck.

It's skill, not talent. He learned how to do that by study and practice.

In this case, I'd wager it's both.
UrsaUrsa
Agreed.

Bullshit. There is such thing as talent and skill. Some people are better at things than others, and we call them "naturals".
zoomtothemoon
Buuuut it takes talent on top of hard work to get that far. Plenty of people work hard at their art, lots don't come near that level.
CocaineOrRaisins
No one put's in thousands of hours and couldn't make something like this. (Basically no-one, you could of course have a disability or some)
But a person who is naturally talented won't have to put in that much effort as the untalented man.That's the point.
InitHello
Perhaps. I'd like to posit that some are either endowed or imbued with a greater latent potential to master a given skill, though.
Oh ya, but my experience the venn diagram of "put lots of work + time in" and "are really good at stuff" overlap a suspiciously huge amount.
AlltheAnswers
Or both? Great artists, athletes, and tradesmen often have innate talent--that they hone with practice to become skilled.
moogecko
Nah man, anybody can art.
I'm a firm believer that talent is mostly a flimsy excuse from unskilled people. Anybody who got great at anything worked their arse off.
NSPike
I partly agree with you - I can pick up most musical instruments and eke out a melody within a few minutes, but I'm not great' at any
Cypheri
Some have a natural advantage, an aptitude or "talent" for certain things, but they will never become great without hard work to hone it.
PoorMansRose
i totally agree, but its really dangerous to believe in talent because it scares people away from even trying
Talent isn't the only way to get there, but it does make things a bit easier. That's how I look at it.
ExperimentKraj
Bullshit. I spent my entire childhood trying to learn to draw, countless hours, and never made anything worthwhile. Meanwhile, even [1]
when I avoided practicing my instruments and TRIED to squander my natural musical gift, I still managed to become an excellent [2]
trumpet player and percussionist. True world-class success at something requires talent AND effort, period. [fin]
Bloax
Let's just say that skill ceilings are a thing and that people get a distribution of them. Some are luckier than others.
Only the very few get a natural cheat sheet for a particular skill though.
