Description
This is a 5 part pocket etch a sketch compilation of the famous sculpture known as the laocoon.It was an assignment for my Art History 2 class to make your own artistic interpretation of this sculpture, and our teacher didn't want us to just redraw it, so I decided that I was going to do it in 5 portions, each with a different style of shading and rendering. My personal favorite is the 8bit version, which I plan on using in future work.
The piece took roughly 5 hours, and it was thoroughly enjoyable. This is the first assignment I have been able to do in etch a sketch at my art college, so I was totally on board with it
The picture of the laocoon (which I used for reference) is on the upper right, so that you can get a better idea of what I was going for.

My only wish is that I could have posted that as a real critique. xD

thanks!
I was thinking of doing critiques on my etch a sketch work, but the only problem with doing critiques is that it's hard to critique an etch a sketch piece if you don't do etch a sketch art too, you know? haha
I mean it's still possible for my work to be critiqued, but I mean, I guess I am looking for a critique that has more to do with the technicality of how my piece is made. If that makes any sense, haha

But I can't even make a HOUSE or CIRCLE on an etch-a-sketch. So, yeah. I'm impressed. xD

lol that must take so much skill, just this year i finally learned how to make a diagonal line, i thought it was pretty much impossible until then lol.
so what do you do if you mess up on a spot do you have to start all over?

well if I mess up I can either find a way to integrate it into the piece, find a way to cover it up, or start over
