My first time drawing Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd

I was drawing it for my Drawing Gesture and Figure class which is due tomorrow. The homework for Drawing Gesture and Figure class that is due tomorrow is drawing 20 thumbnail sketches of a character from a horror movie and one expressive piece based on that character (full figure). So I choose one of my greatest Broadway musical films is Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street the 2007 musical horror slasher film directed by Tim Burton. It is an adaptation of Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's Tony Award-winning 1979 musical of the same name and re-tells the Victorian melodramatic tale of Sweeney Todd, an English barber and serial killer who murders his customers with a straight razor and, with the help of his accomplice, Mrs. Lovett, processes their corpses into meat pies. He was once a happy young man originally named Benjamin Barker who married his beautiful blond wife named Lucy Barker and together, they have a beautiful baby daughter named Johanna that Benjamin appeared to be desired his child to be a girl. A beautiful girl who will grow up to become young and beautiful like her mother; Lucy. However, their life was ruined by Judge Turpin (who has obsession with pretty young women including Lucy) so this judge has Benjamin out of the way by banish him to Australia so he can steal his wife; Lucy to have her all for himself and later, raped her on purpose.

After 15 years, he returns to London with the help of the 20 year old sailor named Anthony and now renames himself as "Sweeney Todd" with his hair turned black with white streak from natural dark brown hair. This story is focus on Sweeney Todd's secret plan is getting revenge on Judge Turpin for what he did horribly to him and his family so he desired to kill him in order to avenge Lucy and the family and put Judge Turpin out of his miserable life.

Anyway, this is also a gift for my good, handsome, cute best friend; Aaron aka angusyoung3 since he is a fan of Tim Burton, his films, his movie work and stuff and also Sweeney Todd movie so he bought an exact replica of Sweeney Todd/Benjamin Barker's shaving razor.

I watch this film about 12 times in 3 months. Even I was disgusted to see Sweeney slit the throats of the customers with a razor which I find it painful so it makes me wince a little bit. But I'm not scared though. I was just wince and said, "That's gonna hurt." But I like those songs which I find them pretty good and I love my favorite songs of this film are "Johanna (Reprise)" and "Not While I'm Around" so I sang them and I enjoy singing them. Watching some romantic parts makes me reminded of that I used to have good romantic times with my ex-boyfriend and this year I spend romantic times with Commander Apetrully of Hero 108 cartoon TV series during my dreams. This movie is very emotional, expressive, very well musical and has a great masterpiece elements in this film by Tim Burton who I like that director the most.

I'm very impressed of this film for both winning and nominating awards for being a Best Musical or Comedy Film, Johnny Depp for being a Best Actor and Favorite Villain Character and also Helena Bonham Carter for being a Best Actress of the Musical Film so I gave this film 5 out of 5 stars and a 100 percent rating of this film. It looks very impressive, expressive and more despite the gore and killing stuff.

I'm sorry if I did any mistakes on that drawing since I'm clumsy and I did my best I can so don't judge me badly nor giving me a bad, insult critiques and bad negative, mean comments please. Forgive me for my drawing mistakes or something. My teacher of Drawing Figure and Gesture class said that it was alright if it looks accurate or not. It took me time to create drawing lightnings, shadings and such.
