Here are some preliminary sketches for a series of Illustrations based aroud my adaptation of 'Beauty and the Beast.'
I researched the original french tale as ten-tackles suggested on my journal entry.

I wanted to give her more of a stern and robust look rather than the ditsy thing Disney turned her into. I also used a slighty more mature style to what I have been using.

These are still rough at the moment, and I think she looks a little plump in the 3/4 portrait.

Sketch done with biro and texture from [link]

Oh and btw, I intend to produce a few illustrations from this tale and then move onto a few more tales, again producing lots of sketches and illustrations for my portfolio.

Do like! And I can see where you would get the 3/4 opinion...but it's not apparent enough to be a problem, in my opinion. It almost gives it a sense of smoothness, reminding us that she is in fact female. LOVE the outfit though, a lot more realistic and true to the story and time period.

Look I had time to comment! =D

Why than you very much =D
It make sense what you say about the smoothness, thanks.
I do like the idea of a more fuller figure anyways, thin dosen't necessary mean beautiful.
'LOVE the outfit'. Tee hee, i'm glad.

And yes, well done. XP
