Made a traditional artwork of Sherlock Holmes as played by Benedict Cumberbatch in BBC's Sherlock using Faber Castell's Polychromos in the span of 33hrs!!!

Took me longer than expected and way longer than I liked, but finally, it's complete!!!

This was a lot of fun & a huge learning experience, I'm very proud of everything in this artwork, it is definitely my best work yet, it features the best I've ever drawn anything, textures, skin, hair etc. and I'm really really proud of it! The skin was very interesting to work on, due to the colors used from browns, to purples, to reds, it was a very interesting few days of drawing! I'm really proud of the shit, especially the buttons and the way the sunlight is hitting everything & I'm also very fond of how I've drawn the coat, how I drew the texture and how thick it looks!

Here's hoping the next artwork doesn't take so long!

I cannot, CANNOT, get over the way Lestrade goes: "bu- uh- really?" when he thinks Sherlock made the text alert noise I-

It was a wild morning in October, and I observed as I was dressing how the last remaining leaves were being whirled from the solitary plane tree which graces the yard behind our house. I descended to breakfast prepared to find my companion in depressed spirits, for, like all great artists, he was easily impressed by his surroundings. On the contrary, I found that he had nearly finished his meal, and that his mood was particularly bright and joyous, with that somewhat sinister cheerfulness which was characteristic of his lighter moments.

Shoutout to everyone who can go do things sometimes but spend the next week recovering.

Shoutout to everyone who looks healthy but isn’t.

Shoutout to everyone who has put up with the “why aren’t you better” b.s.

You’re still here. You’re alive. And I’m proud of you.

this started as a joke but then i started actually thinking about it and now im really annoyed that IDs have this one letter that doesnt mean anything for cis people and is a huge pain in the ass for trans people when we could instead have literally lifesaving information so emergency medical services could just check ur wallet to see which blood to give you so you dont die or whatever But No
