These are the portraits I have been working on lately. I am a HUGE fan of Sherlock and can't wait for season 3 to start! The airing date of January 19th was just announced today, SQUEEEEEE!! Anyways, I love to draw celebrities and the characters they play, especially ones that I really like. So, I give you Sherlock and Moriarty. Please bear in mind that these are not quite finished yet but this is my progress so far.
I like to keep my reference material close at hand while I work to make sure that I'm staying consistent. It also helps with accuracy as well.
I had already done another Sherlock picture but I gave that one away as a gift. I have to say that I am much happier with this one. It just seems to be going a lot better than the first one, even though it's the same photo. Moriarty is proving to be more of a challenge. I have always found straight-on views to be more difficult to draw than 3/4 shots. I think it's because finding symmetry is usually more difficult. My friend is just the opposite of me so I guess we all have something we are working on.
I keep going back and forth between being really happy with the way these look and seeing nothing but flaws. But I suppose that is to be expected. Anyway, I will repost these pictures when they are finished. Please, let me know what you think and, by the way, I do commissions.
Bye for now.
