Description


We started watching the BBC's Sherlock last week. It was bound to happen eventually. |D
I've only seen the first episode, though, since A) it's difficult to get my family together long enough for it and B) convince them to watch it as opposed to, say, Star Trek. Or Doctor Who. Or a movie. Or another of the four or five TV shows that we try (and fail) to keep up with.
///It's kinda exhausting. Why did I have to start all these shows within such a short period of time??

So yeah! I'm actually incredibly happy with how this picture came out. well other than the fact his eye shape is ALL WRONG but oh well
I've dug out my red pens and have been drawing with that red-and-black ballpoint style again. (I forgot how convenient it is.)
Also, I drew it in a couple classes at school then finished it in the hour I spent in my orthodontist's waiting room yesterday, so I have a relatively accurate idea of how long it took me to draw; About 1 and a half to 2 hours, then today another 1 to 2 hours editing it. Now you know how slowly (or quickly?) I draw.
Also, I ought to animate the editing steps of this drawing. It was one of the really extensive ones (which may or may not be obvious).

Requesting critique, because why not?
Hope you all like it! Feedback is GREATLY appreciated, thank you <3

Whoa, this is gorgeous! <3 I love Sherlock and this drawing brings him to life in such a cool way! Your style is also so interesting and eye-catching, I love the colors <3 
For the record, I think his eyes are beautiful, regardless of whether they're shaped "correctly" or not ^_^ I didn't even notice if there was anything "wrong" with them!
