Description EDIT: Oh my Godot--this deviation got made a #DeviantAcademy Daily Deviation! Thank you!

WE IS HOLMES AND WATSON AND WE SEES A CLUE THERE

I started this picture on the first of November, and I only got around to finishing it today. ._. School is a real art-killer.

Anyway, the reason why I haven't been posting much is because my art style is going through yet another revamp--well, not so much of a revamp as a refinement, I guess. I'm veering away from anime and sticking to a more cartoony style, which is refreshing for me. And this is one of the results of that.

Comment-slash-constructively critique, if you would be so kind?

Merry Christmas everyone!

Hey there! Karmi-Sempai here!

I love your style, so keep at it! As you said, it's refreshing, and I love just how casual and loose it is.

And finally, a Holmes without a deerstalker cap! Lovely job on the glows and lighting, too! This is so awesome!

Yay~ XD We're all trying new styles. Harharharhar. >:3

It's a cute style. : o I don't know a lot about Holmes and all, though. XD; Sorry about that. lol But I do know you draw and color way better than I do. XD Hmmm... Not a lot to say. Is the guy in the back made to look chubby and squishy? o.o I like how you did the face and hair, though. XD

You're welcome. XDD

Ahhh, Watson~ I only know a little bit of Sherlock Holmes because I think the "Great Mouse Detective" is based on that?? You know, Disney's movie? I just wanted to make sure that was Watson. OTL I suck. Anyway, if he's meant to look chubby or at least kinda, the face looks a bit too thin for "kinda chubby" In my opinion. Then again, I can't draw chubby people either. >_<

Yup it is! And--the word came back to me just now--I didn't mean chubby, I meant stocky sort of, well not lanky like Holmes anyway because actually Watson's build is never really mentioned in the books. People just always assume he's chubby. lol
