Fanart of BBC Sherlock and Watson (click through for DeviantART version).
I admit, I’ve fallen in love with BBC Sherlock. The clever depictions, amazing cinematography, and intelligent modernization have totally done me in. Not to mention the wonderfully flawed, intensely interesting characters and smooth, meaningful emotional development. To research this picture, I watched the first season twice and followed it with the second - yes, I cried during “The Reichenbach Fall”. Hope you can spot all the references!
This was a discounted commission for my friend’s wife’s birthday - since she’s the one who got me hooked in the first place! He’ll let me sell prints after I color it.
Did you know Doyle probably made up the names “Sherlock” and “Mycroft”? ”Sherlock” refers to his close-cropped hair.
Sherlock Holmes, John Watson belong to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, BBC.
