Shirking

[tealin]

I spent the night at my sister's, last night, and I should have had ample time to fill a page while serving as a cross-legged sketching costumed life drawing model but for some reason, my sketchbook seemed to suck in all the motivation and inspiration out of me, so I only ended up filling half a page. I filled the rest tonight and will try to fill another after I turn my computer off.

Anyway, for a Gnoll, another badly done violin pose, and some thumbnails for the faceoff in Charles Augustus Milverton, see The Sketchbook

EDIT: Aaand here's Page Two. Ubiquitouspitt pointed out that the guy who plays John Clay in the Granada Red-Headed League is Tim McInnery, of Blackadder fame, and suggested this gag. She also suggested the gag above, but I started it too close to the top of the page to get the right posing and composition so it'll have to wait for another day. Caricatured with no reference!

Hello!:)
I found your LJ through 221b_bakerst(a lurker there:P) and I've got to say that yours is the best "cartoony" Holmes I've ever seen! And Dr. Watson is so adorable! As is - changing the subject a bit - your LUPIN! I'd seen your HP site before and I loved all of it! Perfect!:) Do you do it professionally?:)

Huhuhuhuhuh... *snicker*

Sorry. Just got out of class for spring break.

For one second, I thought Holmes was taking a picture of him.

"Hello Darling!"

CLICK!

"That's going on my flikr account!"

Gnolls and Monty Python

[(Anonymous)]

Hmm, that is most interesting. I always imagined the gnolls as Michael Palin portraying a homeless person, but I prefer your design :)

I have no idea what a Gnoll is - but that looks SUPER freaky cool, like it's falling apart as it moves. Though for some reason I imagine it crying, "Bring out yer dead! Bring out yer dead!"

Oh, I didn't know Holmes played viola too...

*snicker*

He looks sooo sad... I shall cook him a pecan pie. It seems to me he needs a kiss from a member of the redheaded league...

Page 2:

Holmes, "HA-HA, Watson! I have it now!!!"
Watson, "Holmes, you're a genius!"
Sarahx2, WHACK!

Drawing 2: ROFLMAO!! *pauses mid-knee slap to take a look around* Oh come ON NOW - where are the droves of Blackadder fans who would GET this joke??
