M is for Mycroft by Amy Crook
The wonderful person who bought my other two Baker Street Tinies Edward Gorey/Sherlock pastiche pieces decided her collection wasn’t complete without Mycroft Holmes and DI Lestrade in the mix. This is the first of two more images she’s commissioned to match the first two, with yet more painstaking crosshatching. Mycroft takes directly after E is for Ernest in the original books, though the bell has become a Blackberry, and his faithful umbrella snuck its way into the picture.
I highly recommend clicking to see the image larger, if only so you can appreciate my absurdly painstaking work. Once Lestrade is done, I’ll have cards and prints available in my Etsy shop.
M is for Mycroft, 8.5″x5.5″ pen and ink on paper, sold.

Christmas Kiss by Amy Crook
Just a silly bit of smooching I drew for a holiday card exchange. They’re definitely enjoying their holiday cheer!

Gingerbread Skellington sketch by Amy Crook
I don’t know if you’ve seen these awesome cookie cutters, but I couldn’t resist sketching a little homage in some poor unsuspecting soul’s coloring book. It’s like holiday cheer, really!

Tentacle Monster Sketch

Tentacle Monster sketch by Amy Crook
I saved this guy for Tuesday for obvious reasons. I’m not sure if he’s Lovecraftian or just really creepy, but he was fun to draw, like a Van Gogh sunflower gone very, very wrong.

Evil Wreath Muppet Thingy sketch by Amy Crook
What? They can’t all have awesome titles. It’s been a busy weekend of coughing up my lungs and selling coloring books on Etsy, so you’ll be getting more coloring book sketches for the foreseeable future. Enjoy!

Elder Thing sketch

Elder Thing sketch by Amy Crook
Another little coloring book sketch! This one is a proper Lovecraftian beastie, the Elder Thing, which is symmetrical along five sides instead of bilaterally. I didn’t really look up all the details, so I’m pretty sure I got some of the bits not quite right, but I don’t really mind. He looks beastly enough like this.

Cuppa Shoggoth?

Cuppa Shoggoth? sketch by Amy Crook
I’m still not feeling well, so I’ll just let this little coloring book doodle (that is, one of the sketches I usually draw in the inside front cover whenever someone buys a Cthulhu Coloring Book or Monster Heart Coloring Book) speak for itself.
Or something.
