katieforsythe expressed to me recently that she imagines a book canon Sherlock and John when she's writing them, vs a tv or movie character depiction. By the way, if you aren't familiar with her works, you are missing a small act of divinity. No joke, the woman is a Goddess! So run, don't walk, over to her journal and READ, READ, READ!!! You will thank me later.
I found this highly interesting and since I promised her some art, I did my best to sketch something out tonight, in between sessions of TRYING to get page 4 of Winter's Solace done. (It's gonna get done tonight if I have to steal a tardis to make it so!!!)
Anyway, this is my first attempt at playing with Holmes and Watson as they might have appeared in the books--that is, if they were shagging. (Wait, weren't they? Turkish bath, anyone?)
Here they are! Of course, Watson's a bit busy to show off his 'stache. But we understand...And it's just a quick colored pencil sketch. But I'll get something more finished out next week.
