The final product of "Beauty" and "Beast".

Yeah, Beauty really wishes she hadn't asked for that rose.

Oh, my, it's so beautiful... I love the discreet sepia tone, the way the poses are different but there's symmetry in their holding on to the roses; and the way their heads are turned away from each other, emphasising the conflict for the moment... Wow. And gorgeous shading at that.

Gorgeous! =D
I, as you seem to, love fairytales, and it's lovely to see such lovely depictions of them. You did a lovely job on the beast (I never seem to be able to make a beast look beast-like, so he always ends up as some sort of slightly mal-formed human with a bad need for a shave.... ;) )
Your style, technique, everything, is just lovely. I am inspired! =)

I really do love fairytales - it's amazing how many people here seem to.
As far as the Beast is concerned, I modeled him off of my cat, then gave him slightly more lion-like features (such as smaller eyes, a sort of mane, comparitively longer snout). The tusks, I dunno, just seemed to fit. So perhaps if you want to something less human, it might help to start from an animal base, rather than a man. But that's just an idea.
Thank you for your lovely comment!

Good idea! I've had a beauty and the beast picture floating around in my head, impatient to get onto paper for some time now, but I have had big exams to do, and haven't been able to draw. I'm gonna start on Saturday, and will put your suggestion into practice! Thanks =D
