no reference beast, in graphite

I know I just put up two pictures of the beast, but I drew a picture for a close friend of mine as a going away gift. her favorite disney movie is beauty and the beast, so it seemed fitting. I hope you like it, I enjoyed drawing it. no reference used.


it's always more fun for me to draw a picture for someone else than it is to draw a picture for me. I understand that practicing is important, and I do practice, a lot, it's just more fun when I am going to give the art to someone I care about. anyway, any comments or critiques are appreciated. I've drawn up some thumbnails for a storyboard, and like where it's going, I might post it but I want to keep the story under wraps for a bit.
