I was so upset that they cut the lines relating to her injury in the film... those are some of my favorite lyrics. This painting really captures all the emotion of the scene and pays a very high tribute to Frances, whose voice I also adore. The shadows and the salt-spatter stars are particularly wonderful in conveying said emotion... Oh, I can't articulate any further, I'm too busy staring into those eyes of hers.

Ooh, likin' the contrast. Especially in the hair. It gives it a nice wet look to it.

This is gorgeous! It just captures so much about Eponine...
You know, I think you might be the first person I've seen who prefers Francis Ruffelle over Lea Salonga. It was a tad surprising, really.

that's because I've actually read the book.
and thank you so much for the compliments and the fave!

Fair enough, fair enough. I like the book an musical for different reasons. I don't really have a favourite Eponine, though. (It's always nice to see Les Mis fans who have read the book too!)
And no problem!

heeehee, I'm actually rewriting Les Mis the musical to be more centred around Patron-Minette.

Oh really? That is so interesting! I've never thought of it from a point of view even nearly like that. I wish you good luck--I'd love to read it!

She's my favorite Eponine. I grew up listening to her version, and her voice is so vulnurable and pretty. Lovely drawing <3

Whoa, girl. Don't go dissing Montparnasse. He may be a bastard but he's a badass one.
Oh my goddd this is gorgeous. I love the hair.

I looooveee 'Parnasse! No worries! 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ooh! That sounds exciting!
And I'm glad that you don't hate him. Why are the "bad guys" always so cool?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
man, I LOVE bad guys. ALWAYS. There was an awesome episode of Walt Disney Presents back in the day that had a whole episode dedicated to how fucking bad ass villains are. (especially Disney ones!).
Yeah, I think I am attracted to characters like 'Parnasse and Eponine and the other creeps because they have the most personality. They should be up soon!
(seriously, those guys need their own damn comic)
