Snake's Castle

    This is a picture of a chess piece I drew in CyberARTS.

    The chess piece was an assignment we were given. The assignment said we had to draw a chess piece with value (shadows and what not), proportion and realism. It also needed to include a back ground the displayed movement, rhythm, or pattern.
     I found a nice spot to place my chess piece to start with. Then I need to make sure I had the right paper and pencil. After I got all of that sorted out i began to draw my chess piece. To add value I had to give it shadows. To do so I used a light that was already set up next to me. By far the shading was the hardest part because I need to to get the shadows just right and by that i mean in the correct spots and the correct darkness of the shadow.

    The background was fun. For the I decided to draw a snake. I chose the snake because of the of the pattern it has in its scales. I placed the chess piece in the centre of the snake so the viewers eye would be drawn to it.
