Picture done at the request of a fan who wanted to see Jack as Sweeney Todd. I couldn't figure out which furry female character could possibly make a believable Mrs. Lovett, until I remembered David Hopkin's Lisa. Hopefully he won't mind me using her. She came out looking a little too much like a demented Aunt Jemima here, which I'll try to excuse by saying I have little experience drawing frizzy hair. Done with Prismacolor markers.

Hmmm...
I'd say it isn't the hair. The smile needs to be a bit more crooked, reaching further back toward her cheek in Mrs. Lovett's sardonic leer. o/It's priest... have a little priest...\o
One other thing to consider is a black wash, to simulate the soot of the Victorian era. This was the age of coal, and anthracite (which burns more cleanly) was rather rare; most Victorians went about their business with a dusting of soot all over them, which they washed off when they had the opportunity.

Drip directed me to this illustration after I inquired about him creating a "Bob & Lisa: My Little Priest" scenario. I have to say, your interpretation of Lisa as Ms. Lovett is astonishly beautiful, as well as strikingly frightening. She makes a tremendously horrid psychopath, and by that I mean there can be no better cannibalistic, flesh-baking, wench then her ;3
The curly hair suits her form, I do believe, as well as the frilly clothing. It gives her the appearance of someone humble, even though her natural predator shows through. A cunning disguise for a murderess~

I can't help it.
LISA: Seems a down right Shame.
JACK: Shame?
LISA: Seems an awfull waste. Such a nice plump frame what's his name has. Had, HAS. Nor it can't be traced. Buisness needs a lift, debts to be erased. Think of it as thrift, as a gift, if you catch my drift. Seems an awful waist. I mean with the price of meat what it is, when you get. If you get it.
JACK Ahh.
LISA: Good you got it.
I couldn't help it. I love the movie.

"...All right! You sir, how about a shave?
Come and visit your good friend Sweeney.
You sir, too sir. Welcome to the grave.
I will have vengeance.
I will have salvation.
(shouted) Who sir, you sir?
No one's in the chair, come on! Come on!
Sweeney's waiting. I want you bleeders.
You sir - anybody.
Gentlemen don't be shy!
Not one man, no, nor ten men.
Nor a hundred can assuage me -
I will have you!.." © song Epiphany, from Sweeney Todd move.
