Description Yay, I finished it! It's Basil of Baker Street picking the lock of some door. Sherlock Holmes did the same, I think in "Charles Augustus Milverton," when he and Watson burgled the master blackmailer's house. I also think Holmes commented a couple times to Watson that he thought he would make an excellent criminal

You may recognize this from the latest Sherlock Holmes movie when Holmes is fiddling with his tools to get into the building to find clues about the ginger midget, and Watson finally just kicks the door in That was my inspiration for the background and Basil's pose. The wall didn't turn out as great as I had hoped, and the door may be too dark, but I'm really pleased with how Basil turned out. I was originally gonna put Dawson in the pic too, but I'm still having trouble getting him right. My first attempt at drawing Dawson was very unsuccessful, so I'm doing lots of sketches trying to get him to look right.

Anyways, hope y'all like it! You guys are always encouraging, and I appreciate your comments!

Not as great as you hoped? This is awesome! I'm lucky if I can draw a stick figure well!

Awesome! Dark and mysterious! For some reason, I always expected to see Watson...or in this case Dawson coming up from behind him and just kick the door in. Still, it's awesome!

Thanks so much! I did want to do Dawson, but ended up cropping it to just Basil since I couldnt get Dawson to look right.

You're welcome. It still looks awesome either way. You'll get it eventually.

*waves to Basil* Hey, hottie, still working on that lock, eh? j/k, it's a really nice job! Subtle dark colors for a moody atmosphere, me likes!

Thank you! Heehee, Dawson's probably getting tired of waiting. I'm sure he'll kick the door in any minute

I can so picture that! Basil: "These things must be done precisely, Dawson, or--" Dawson: "Oh, for heaven's sakes!" *kicks open the door*
