One of my friends uses a picking technique where he positions his hand just like he would with a pick, but he doesn't actually use one. So he's using the edge of his thumb/index finger to strike the strings. He can sweep and tremolo pick and do advanced stuff just as well as I can, but he didn't pick it up from anyone famous, he just does it because he's too cheap to buy picks, and he taps a lot so he doesn't want to have to stash them somewhere when does tapping with 6+ fingers.
Have you ever tried this, or seen anyone else do it? Its kinda different, and I'm wondering if anyone influential(yourself included) does it.
