Who doesn't love Mrs. Potts?! I love how you gave her brown hair instead of white- I know some women grey early, but it always struck me as kind of weird that she was so old yet she had a son who was still small enough to be picked up and carried, and quite a few other children who couldn't be much older, hell who knows, maybe some of those teacups are Chip's age or younger! I mean, who knows, maybe they could have been adopted, or maybe Mrs. Pott's daughter died having Chip and she's raising him as a son instead of a grandson, but thank you for making her actually look like she could be his mother. Excellent work!

She is so adorable It always bothered me that she looked old enough to be his grandma too, as he always calls her Mamma! Thankyou for the nice comment

It's only a white wig. I'm okay with live action version of Beatrice, Mrs. Potts' first name.

You're welcome! Believe me, if I could have designed Mrs. Potts as a human, she would have looked quite a bit younger. Maybe like Mrs. Lovett from Sweeney Todd in the following scene: [link] .

Those hair buns are SO Mrs. Potts! I like to think that she used to be blonde when she was younger, as Chip is blonde.

Just out of curiosity, if Mrs. Potts had a first name, what do you think it would be?

I've never really thought about her first name, I can't think of any either! Have you got any ideas?

Something sort of British Isles-ish, since she's from England. I'm in the process of writing some Beauty and the Beast fanfics, and I'm torn between the following first names: Elaine, Sarah, Helen, Agnes, Jane, Eleanor, Susan, Cynthia, Nellie (after Mrs. Lovett) or Marion (after this Irish actress named Marion o'Dwyer, who I also think has what would have been the perfect look for the human version of Mrs. Potts. Do a google images search of her and tell me if you agree, if you want.).

Do you like any of those names? (NOTE- I am not asking you to write the fanfic for me, just looking for opinions. I will be making the final call myself.)

Ooh I quite like Marion Elaine and Nellie are both good too. We have quite a lot of tradional names in England, maybe you could check out some 1800-ish literature for inspiration, especially the names of nurses, housekeepers, nannies etc. The housekeeper in Wuthering Heights is called Nelly

Thank you for the writing tip! Will definitely do that when I can.

Coincidentally, Wuthering Heights is on my "to read list," LOL.

Ooh have fun! I actually tend to read classic novels more than modern ones for fun which is a bit weird, I hope you enjoy it!

Aren't classics the best? I do that too! In fact, the book your deviantart journal says you're reading is my favorite book, LOL.

Chip! I love Chip's slouchy sock(s?). Nice pattern choices for the white areas and the underskirt. I think maybe the dress pattern is a bit too big for the costume; seeing as it leaves one sleeve almost bare. But other than that, I enjoy this a LOT. Love the little cowlick in Chip's hair. And his freckles!

Thanks for taking the time to comment! I don't usually colour by using patterns, I just thought I'd try it out on these two. I'm glad you like him hehe
