How to Draw a Chain
Today I will show you how to draw a chain. I am sure that this lesson will be interesting and useful for you.
I suggest you complete a new lesson in which I will show you how to draw a chain step by step. This lesson is suitable for all children and novice artists. A chain is a series of metal links that are connected to each other in a certain way.
The chain can be used for many purposes, and you have seen chains many times in your life. People often wear small chains around their neck or wrist as decoration.
Usually such chains are made of precious metals. There are also large chains that are used in various industries.
In the picture you see a chain that is connected in a ring. At first glance, it will seem to you that it is difficult to draw such a chain, but in fact, you can easily cope with this task if you are careful at every step.
All links must be the same in shape and size. Try to follow this rule, and then you will achieve an excellent result.
