really great. I like the colours and the way both look. she really is a beauty an he´s a beast... but I’d like to see him at the end of the sory, as a human.
Really great work.

27 Oct 2009:-) Michael pixiepie john
gosh the drawing of her face is amazing !
she looks so distinctly like a real girl
and her hair . . and the stormclouds heavy with rain ,
i love coloured pencil drawings ,
there’s something so warm about them ,
~ the beastie seems a little ethereal somehow ,
like an apparition maybe ,
and i wonder if you intended that

:-) James McPartlin replies: "Actually Beauty is based on a real girl, Michael, the beast was deliberately meant to be slightly obscure as to not overshadow Beauty....great comment, thank you Pal 2"

Just so beautiful, James. And the girl’s not bad either He He He! Seriously,excellent work, and Beast looks a bit like the Javalinas(or collared peccaries)we have here in Southern Arizona. In fact we have one that has taken up residence under our house! And even came into the kitchen! (oh, I see my wife Lynn found this first and told you)They smell exactly like skunks too (just the pig, not Lynn). I would be happy to send you one for a house pet and model for future drawings-In fact the very one under our house, if you like!1

I am in no doubt when i say that this is too good for elfwood. sorry elfwood, but this is in a class of its own. just flawless. i am sorry i don’t have anything more constrctive to say - everything is so perfectly done, i can’t justify words.
