Description
It took me 2 readings and watching the miniseries as well as the kiera knightley movie to like this story. Once I gave in, I was hooked.ΒDecided to do some p&p fanart. Woot.Β

Yay I'm glad you like it! I can see how the 1995 version is a lot of people's favorite. It seems to be a bit more true to the novel.

It is a lovely picture. The facial features look great. The shadow in the back is a nice addition as well. Great work with this picture.

I love this! I actually fell in love the first time I read it. I've become such a sucker for romance lately.
How many movies or tv series are there? I really to get started watching all of the story's incarnations, but I don't know where to start.Β

For the tv series I think there is only one and it's with Colin Firth I think it was made in the early 90's. As for movies the only one I know of is the one with Kiera Knightley. I fell in love with the story as well and am glad there's fanart for it. What do you think of the characters?

Well Mr Darcy was my first favorite, I'm instantly drawn to theΒ villain-like characters everyone else seems to hate for some reason. 
Elizabeth became really great for me too. I loved that she was so opinionated and knew what she wanted for herself. Independent but not obnoxiously feminist you know? So rare to find that kind of main character in that time period.
As for other characters, I liked Mr Bingley a lot too. He was the average cute guy with a great personality, almost Disney prince like.
So yeah, I really love the story based on the book alone. I really should start watching some TV show or Movie about Pride and Prejudice, typing this has made me remember how much I totally love the story.Β

I loved that about Darcy too! His awkwardness was rather charming and his character
development was the best next to Lizzie's.
She was smart, witty, and as you stated
knew what she wanted. Now a days if you write a character like this they pass her off
as a bitch or something of the like.
Mr. Bingley was the man I was rooting for with Jane
"No they HAVE to be together! COME ON AUSTEN." He was "Disney prince like" without
being boring.
I'm ashamed to admit I liked Wickham until it was discovered that he lied.
I actually hated the part where he ran off with Lydia "Great you're ruining a lady's life
with this scandal and you don't even care?!"
How did you feel about the Elizabeth's parents? I remember reading and watching
one of the movies thinking "Wow the father and mother tease each other just like mine do."
Only my own mother is quiet.

The parent's friendly bickering was hilarious. I loved how the mother was so faint of heart and worrisome about everything while the father just played it cool and didn't flip out when he was told about Wickham/Lydia and Elizabeth/Darcy. They were so relatable and I couldn't help but think how my parents can be like that sometimes, except that my dad is the one who overreacts. I think the best part about the story is that it's so timeless. I kept forgetting that the book was published in 1813, and was able to relate a lot of the supporting characters to people I know. I guess personalities and everyday troubles always have and always be the more or less the same.

I thought so too, the relate able parts of the book finding love, embarrassing parents (mostly the mother) siblings that get on one's nerves, Lydia's grand ideas on love and marriage were laughable and so out of touch with reality. My dad is more like the cool father of the book when something happens he asks the important stuff and then scolds someoneΒ and usually makes a joke. My mother freaks out a bit then calms down.

Love the compostition and colours in this painting.
I especially the BBCs miniseries. I don't know if you have watched "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries" is a modern adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, it's quite good. Here you have the link if you want to watch it

Thanks so much! I've definitely watched the Lizzie Bennett DIaries, but haven't had time to get into it, perhaps I'll revisit the web series...

Quiet charming.
I love the book too, haven't seen the movie though me mum tells me its great.
However fair warning.
If you value the classiness of the original Pride and PrejudiceΒ
DO NOT READ PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES
I had to read that book for college. I wish to burn it.
It is an unoriginal copy-n-paste zombie bit mockery of the true novel.
But still this is a lovely peice

You had to read it for a college class? That's weird... lol!
Thanks for your kind words! <3

It was for an essay about the rise of interest for Zombies in Pop Culture. Why is our generation is suddenly so interested in the undead. It was a lot of fun to write however I could've gone without reading that particular book.

Nice job! My favorite take on the book was the BBC miniseries, I couldn't bring myself to read the book before I saw it.

Thanks so much!

I had the same problem!!!Β I wanted to like the story but I had to force myself through the book then see the movie twice and talk to someone who loved it before I FINALLY fell in love with it on the 3rd watch.Β
The language was a real barrier for me. But the true problem was understanding how Mr. Darcy CHANGED so much. And, of course, he didn't! He was never AS prideful as he seemed! They were both prideful and prejudiced. But they both realized those mistakes and got past them. It's a great story and I love it now!
This is a nice picture! She looks lovely and I like how you have him grayed out in the background.Β

Thank you so much! What got me liking it finally was listening to the audio book on librivox. I would listen to it while painting, and it really helped me fall in love with it!Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, I've listened to the audiobook numerous times and it's very good!
You'll probably roll your eyes, but Pride & Prejudice & Zombies is good too, especially the audiobooks. It's ridiculously funny and it got me over my fear of zombies so that I've read other z books that I love!

ZOmbies have always creeped me out as well, lol! Thanks for the suggestion!
