007 + Q = 00Q sketches by Amy Crook
My wonderful $5+ Patreon patrons get to ask for a sketch from me every month, and this time 3 of them left prompts!
Kim asked for Q in a sweater, and so we decided of course on the warm jumper from the Spectre trailer. Then Blaine asked for Bond to go with Q, and I decided on the tactical turtleneck from the promo shots, and their eyes meeting across the boundaries of the sketches. And, of course, posing 007 like a Bond Girl. It’s only fair, really.
Jeff, being of a less shippy mindset, asked for something meta: a drawing of a Minion drawing a Minion.

…And Prosper, Star Trek parody art by Amy Crook
I’m not certain what would cause Spock to want to give his Captain bunny ears with his Live Long and Prosper hand sign, but I’m pretty sure Kirk deserved it. Bones is not impressed, but Bones never is.
…And Prosper, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

MI6 Tinies: J is for James

MI6 Tinies: J is for James by Amy Crook
As promised, here’s the second of my MI6 Tinies. James is falling into the same trap as “Z is for Zillah,” though he’s at least using proper martini glasses instead of a teapot for his gin. Gorey’s ubiquitous black doll also makes a guest appearance, spreading its ill omen along with the display of finer spirits.
These two are a commission, but you can acquire them printed on a lovely 2-card set at my Etsy shop.

Q is for Quartermaster

MI6 Tinies: Q is for Quartermaster by Amy Crook
The wonderful patron who commissioned most of my Baker Street Tinies knitted me the most amazing shawl, and one of the things she requested in trade for it was a pair of MI6 Tinies.
This time I’ve crossed the world of James Bond over with Edward Gorey’s Gashlycrumb Tinies. The new Q from Skyfall appears in a parody of “Y is for Yorick” except instead of a column of stone it’s a tall tower of servers teetering and about to fall on his head.
Don’t worry, 007 will get his on Wednesday! These two are a commission, but you can acquire them printed on a lovely 2-card set at my Etsy shop.

Devil and Angel Bookmarks

Devil & Angel bookmarks, Sherlock parody art by Amy Crook
I sketched these as my art warm-up about 10 days ago, which turned out to be the day’s entire art output because I then entered printer tech support purgatory. Everything’s under warranty, but I could really stand to have had this fixed sometime last week.
I’m not sure why I felt the need to give Sherlock a tentacle tattoo, but as it looks adorable on him, I don’t think it matters. Horns inspired by a rewatch of Monsters Inc.

Daron, Colin, and Ziggy

Daron, Colin, and Ziggy by Amy Crook
Daron’s Guitar Chronicles is continuing its summer of fanworks, and I’m easily led, so when someone asked me to draw Colin I couldn’t resist giving him a rock star on each arm. I love how this really shows how short Daron and Ziggy are, but my favorite detail is the little hole in Ziggy’s fishnet shirt, though Daron’s adorable blush is a close second.
The original should show up in the Floating Gallery soon, or you can get these cuties on a card in my Etsy shop.

Training

Training, a Lord of the Rings parody comic by Amy Crook
A delightful little commission for Caroline, who’s responsible for a lot of the Sherlock art I share with you as well. She wanted something that hinted at Aragron having been around the city when Boromir was just a wee thing, though canonically they didn’t meet then.
Poor Boromir’s just be knocked on his tush for the nth time during training, and Aragorn can’t resist getting in a little dig at their age difference.
