?????? Anyways- I have a plan (insert popular swedish movie poster) (applause)
I have finished all the current ACD designs for Watson that i've wanted to do, and here is the final (for now) based on the likness of Josef Friedrich
I like his style, and i had to draw something like it. Anyways- here is the plan. I'm gonna draw busts of the rest of the Watsons that have good quality pictures of their designs, this includes different actors from the same show (winks in granada).
anyways- i'm gonna crack my skull open and look at all the list of 243 acotrs who have played Watson now- BYE

As he spoke there was a tap at the door, and the boy in buttons entered to announce Miss Mary Sutherland, while the lady herself loomed behind his small black figure like a full-sailed merchant-man behind a tiny pilot boat. Sherlock Holmes welcomed her with the easy courtesy for which he was remarkable...
Miss Mary Sutherland, drawn by Sidney Paget, Josef Friedrich, Martin Van Maële, and Gastão Simões da Fonseca, respectively
