This is the unfinished work of a master's study I was doing for some digital painting practice. This is a recreation of Da Vinci's original "Leda and the Swan"

The myth:
So there was this pretty lady named Leda who usually minded her own business. One day, while bathing in a pond she was confronted by a gorgeous swan. After some time, the swan began to bathe with her and later the two engaged in some very strange love making that could send modern animal rights activists into a hysterical rage. The swan actually raped Leda on several occasions, but hey, when you're the god of Gods why not? The swan turned out to be one of the many forms that Zeus had taken in order to fornicate with humans. Leda was impregnated by Zeus and laid four eggs. One of the children was Troy, who later had a city in his name and lead many famous battles.

I can't imagine laying four giant eggs. Nope.
