The image showing classical love story tale featuring the beast and beauty.
Inspiration came from Ridley Scott's movie Legend and Disney's animation Beauty and the Beast from 1991. The goal was to build a fairy tale atmosphere (that is why warmer colors were used) but keeping the characters and the enviroment more adult. Some references were used only for the dress. I gave the whole piece more paintery style and kept it less digital thus the image is not perfectly rendered in some areas.
The whole artwork took about 3 days to finish and was done in CS2. Hope you like it.
