I have an obsession with the compelling faces of Colin Morgan and Benedict Cumberbatch, as evident in my fanart. Pale cheekbones galore!

I simply love your art, just found you via tumblr (but already knew some of your art :) so now I'm following you here and on Deviantart :) Thanks for sharing you art with us :)

I’m always happy to, thank you! I’m a bit more active here than on dA these days weeks months, so glad you’ve found me! XD

Here’s a super rough harpy!Ariel!Colin that I drew quite a while ago, and have just convinced myself to post as is (I gotta learn to stop refining everything). I sketched this right after those rehearsal photos came out, hence the shaggy hairdo, and then added the pink after his actual costume was revealed. I’ll admit that I wasn’t too fond of Ariel’s design - not just because of how conservative it was! Well, I did find a few elements interesting; the massive skull he wears, for example. I’d like to incorporate that into another version of this… some day. (MY ART TAG)

I actually quite love drawing creepy odd alien type creatures I just tend to be too obsessed with people to show much of it.
ANYWHO I’ve been concepting some things

One of these days I’ll manage more than a sketch in the 11th hour, but I wanted to participate this week in the extra-special shenanigans in some way!

How did you make the print-y effect on the gladstone picture for letsdrawsherlock? I always wanted to try the old advert style...

Hi there! I work digitally, and for this I just found a couple of textures that I placed as overlay layers above my work. I did this using Paint Tool SAI, but Photoshop allows it as well. I’ll usually mess with these layers quite a bit - perhaps change their tone, desaturate them, and/or lower their opacity. It might even be good to try out a different blending mode to get the right look. As for the types of textures, I look up free-to-use images of grain, grunge, parchment, old paper… etc. You can search deviantART, or just Google! Hope this helps! 

I TOTALLY FORGOT TO PAINT JOHN’S SCAR!

How could I just realize this? God… and his left shoulder is RIGHT THERE! Shame on me! T_T Okay, um… I’m just gonna say that it’s him when he’s younger, before he got shot. That’s not too hard to believe… I mean, I did give him a considerably younger-looking body, eh? Maybe he’s on a temporary leave of absence from military duty, and has gone to a hot beach somewhere to relax… and that’s where he encounters the stray Gladstone! Ah! Yes! Good! I’ll stop before this turns into a fic… I feel better now.

For Let’s Draw Sherlock! (also a contribution to Red Pants Monday)

So, what if John’s tan did extend above his wrists? Ha! Anyway, yes, this is a digital painting of John Watson (with his bulldog, Gladstone - sadly absent from the show) based on the Coppertone Girl from the original 50s ad. Deepest apologies to Martin Freeman… Well, I’ll probably leave this looking like a WIP, because damn his legs! (MY ART TAG)

Help - a question!

I remember a post going around that described how one could add a white strip (1 pixel tall) to their photo set; this would supposedly allow people to replace the photo they’ve posted, in future, and then have all existing reblogs show the updated image instead of the old one. This sounds especially useful for artists who post their artwork and later make changes to the piece… I’d like to start doing this, but I forgot to save the post and information… so I’m hoping someone has had this work for them, and could give me a bit more instruction? Thank you…

Ahh, thank you! There are a few details that I generally tend to include in drawings - thumb ring, wedding ring, Colin's bracelet, and dragon tattoo XD Dunno why, but by now it's just A Thing. And HOLY SHIT influenced by Colin's hair - ? AM I EVER. Colin's hair is a thing of beauty no matter what <3

Mm, yes! Well so much love for this “Thing” of yours! Carry on with the awesome details!
