Twitter has once again given us our theme for the day, this time from @EmperorzNou whose presence there is partially my fault anyway. *cough* He asked for a mutant turtle perhaps in his teens of the ninja variety, or something like that, and thus you have an inexpertly weeble-ified turtle with obligatory pizza.

Mmm, pizza.

Sharpie Sherlock silliness by Amy Crook

Sharpie Sherlock silliness by Amy Crook

Sharpie Week Redux continues with tentacles! You know I’d never skip your Tuesday tentacles.

This time @wyomingnot on Twitter asked me to draw something related to a fanfic where Sherlock is a genius pastry chef who wants to open an ice cream shop, and John is his faithful sidekick/store manager. The title is I believe the name of the shop, which refers to the ideal ice cream storage temperature in Celsius.

Or something, I don’t know. John! Sherlock! Tentacle Surprise ice cream! Really, do the details matter?

I’ve been busy and full of pollen and somehow I’m behind on art all of a sudden, so you get Sharpie Week Redux! All Sharpie sketches, all week. Today’s was at the request of @kdlb on Twitter, who asked for a weeble inspired by the Avengers movie. I couldn’t resist the chance to weeble-ify Samuel L. Jackson, and so, here we are.

Sharpie Week is one of the ways I trim back obligations when I’m overwhelmed. What’s your solution?

A friend asked for some cheer-up art of Sherlock fallen asleep over his experiments, and perhaps someone having covered him with a blanket. I couldn’t leave John out of the picture, so here he is mid-kindness.

Click the picture to see it bigger. I feel John is the one responsible for re-labeling Sherlock’s blow torch, and that at least one item in the array actually belongs to Mrs. Hudson. Oops.

Another little sketch that went as a gift with some art. Harry always was fascinated with magic, and I like his expression, leaning back and admiring his Lumos.

Mycroft was a little thank-you gift to someone, and he wanted to show off his dapper pose to you all. Have a great weekend!

Mother Hydra

I’ve taken some liberties here and used a more classic interpretation of a hydra, rather than the Lovecraftian description of Father Dagon’s bride. There’s just no way to make a vast pool of screaming faces cute, really.

As it is, I can totally imagine at least one of her heads yelling, “No more wire hangers!” She’s even got pearls and lovely pink-painted claws nails.

Just don’t mention the screaming faces and monstrous claws pressing against her heavy, pregnant belly. Or think about what sort of monsters she’s the mother of, if you want to sleep tonight.

Mother Hydra, 5″x7″ pen and ink and Copic markers on paper.
