Artist's Comments

Not counting this as fanart as it's more of a design for a Sherlock Holmes cartoon I want to do.

Beautiful.

You're getting so good, it almost makes me sick.

Hahaha. Thank you my dear! These drawings are mere trifles though. If scanning wasn't so slow I'd upload all of them. I've got pipe-lighting/smoking/cleaning, shooting up, newspaper reading, in the chem lab and much more. Scanning is SO slow though, and all my drawings are in red col-erase pencil. Oh well though. THANKS again! :sherlock:

Amazing! I am usually quite picky when it come to Holmes, and I couldn't help but notice that your Holmes has light hair, where as Doyle's Holmes has black hair. However I think it suits him very well!! This is a truely inspiring artpiece!!! Good show!!

Hmmm... I had just finished reading A Study in Scarlet when I drew this and I didn't remember reading anything about black hair. Every interpretation I had seen up until this point had light colored hair.

But if you say so, I'll take your word for it! Thanks SO much :sherlock:

I wasn't trying to offend you or anything!! (sorry if i did) If you look at the pictures by Sidney Paget he always seems to have dark hair, and that's how doyle thought of it.

funny thing is too is that the name "Sherlock" is old English for "light haired"

I really liked your interpretation of Sherlock Holmes!! no matter what colour!

I think I actually may have given him light hair because of the name meaning (I remember I looked it up at some point). I wasn't offended though, no. I was even more complimented that you prefer the black hair and yet you still liked my depiction.

Thanks! :sherlock:

Wow. His hair sure is light. I like it though. I particulary like the shot of him reading the paper.

Hahaha... read the above conversation for some "enlightenment" ('scuse the pun) on the subject.

Thanks for the kind words! :sherlock:

Interesting, a twist on Holme's hair, a more angluar drawn out form,but I would like a longer coat. That's the only matter I have issue with. Everything else I consider very expressive and ingenious.
