This is lovely. Beautifully drawn.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the cheer :)

[dreamingjewel.livejournal.com]

Quite nice.:)

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Cheers :)

Oh goodness this is beautiful. Their faces! They look so utterly real. And the relaxed intimacy in their postures, and the clothes! I'll just be over here in the corner admiring this picture...

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Belated thanks for your kind comment :) Glad you enjoyed it!

[bk7brokemybrain.livejournal.com]

Beautiful! I love the positioning, how unbalanced and dynamic it is. Their expressions say so much. I love your rendering of fingers and folds and faces. Lovely.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Heheh, thanks. I drew it on a diagonal angle about 75% of the time, but ended up wimping out and making it straight in the end :)

[tweedisgood.livejournal.com]

Delightful, casual intimacy, and their faces - sigh :-). I'm thinking this is Sussex and the pattern behind them is a huge map of the Holmes "estate" or the secluded village of Fulworth, but that's probably my wild imagination.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Hehe, no, it was Cornwall, but perhaps it gave Holmes ideas ;)

[kindkit.livejournal.com]

Absolutely beautiful.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks :D (with 1 month delay)

OMG, that's gorgeous! I love the looks on their faces. Holmes looks so inwardly content and Watson is so happy. Sigh. I can't imagine who that talented artist could be...

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Cheers, triple :) Glad it came over as contented moment ... I was sort of going for 'everything is sorted, case is finished, and Holmes gets to explain it all with pleasure :)'

Incredibly touching. It is a testament to your talent and skill hat even fully clothed this picture spells "lovers" to me in such a deeply erotic way that I cannot quite find the G-rating justified. ;)

Re: Untitled (Watson and Holmes)

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) I'm glad their partnership shows up in this.

[violsva]

Oh, that's just wonderful.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

[rhuia.livejournal.com]

Oh wow. This is sublime. I love how it could be either a conversation or just a quiet, tender shared moment. The look on Holmes's face! And the way Watson looks so solid and dependable and real! But look, Holmes still looks sharp and alert under the fondness and Watson still looks like he'd spring up in a second to follow if he had to. This is such a clever, thoughtful study of their characters, mystery artist, and yet you've managed to also make it poignant and lovely. Thank you so much, I adore it.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Phew, I was so glad it was OK, as art is very different from fic! It's hard to show an adventure, so I could only try to show the sort of...post-adventure telling.

[methylviolet10b]

Lovely work! This is a really striking image. Well done!

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks Methylviolet! Maybe I'll try this again next year. :)

[spacemutineer.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous. Holmes with his sleeves pushed up just makes me melt. Ah, everything about this is just so comfortable and welcoming. Love it.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I always think I draw his sleeves much too loose, but maybe it's Watson's shirt ;)

[monkeybard]

This exudes tenderness. <3! Beautifully done!

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks o monkeybard :)

[ob-af.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh ahhhhh. They look at each other with such affection.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you :))

[gardnerhill.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous. And your style is unmistakeable, "redacted."

I get all melty at Holmes and Watson as an old retired couple, and I love the touch of the map of Sussex behind them.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

PS love your tender fingersmooch icon, especially as in certain dialects of BSL that literally IS the verb 'kiss'.

[hardboiledbaby]

OMG THEIR FAAAAACES

And the lines of their bodies, the quiet intimacy of the pose. So much devotion. Beautiful. Thank you!

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much :)

[marta-bee.livejournal.com]

For some things in life, "beautiful" is simply insufficient. The quiet grace and comfort with each other, the intimacy, the age on them and the evidence of a life shared together - this is simply sublime. Well done, mystery artist.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Aw, thats v kind of you. Thanks :)

[fictionforlife.livejournal.com]

Ahhh their mutual love and adoration killed me. Lovely!

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Yours was awesome!

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Their gentle expressions are just wonderful.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks, and glad you enjoyed it :)

[mistyzeo.livejournal.com]

Oh, god, that's lovely. Their expressions are so clearly affectionate and devoted, and their body language is so comfortable! Yum.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thanks :) Glad you thought the body language worked out!

[med_cat]

Sweet :) And I love the color scheme.

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Cheers :) I don't know why it's pink, but it is!

[fabelschwester.livejournal.com]

Profiles and hands and cuddling on the settee! <3 <3 <3 I also love their faces! And your linework is amazing!

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) Glad you said 'cuddling' because I thought it could have been a pre-cuddle sort of conversation :)

[capt-facepalm.livejournal.com]

This is gorgeous! A lovely depiction of our friends in their later years.
Cartographic!Squee! Is the background a map?

[spacefall.livejournal.com]

Yep, it was meant to be a bit of Cornwall. Thanks!

[vernets.livejournal.com]

Love, love, love your clean and amazing style. The linework is SO lovely, gosh.
