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.

EDIT: 2-19-11 Thank you so kindly for the Daily Deviation! I am truly honored!
