The Death of Me, Too, 2 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
John might be sick, but he’s clever enough to know what will get Sherlock to reciprocate at least a little care, even if it’s just a cup of tea. If there’s one thing Sherlock can’t stand, after all, it’s being told he can’t figure something out.

The Death of Me, Too, 1 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
It took me a bit, but I’ve finally finished the sequel to The Death of Me, the 6-panel comic in which Sherlock gets a cold and poor John has to take care of him. The tables are turned, John’s the one that’s ill now, and we get to see how Sherlock fares with his blogger out of commission.
The originals were commissioned by my favorite kiwi, but there will be a print available in my Etsy shop at the end of the week.

GrumpySherlock

GrumpySherlock cartoon by Amy Crook
I had a day last week when I was kept awake past my bedtime by noisy people, and awakened far before my usual time by different noisy people, and spent the entire day feeling very grumpy indeed. So, I cheered myself up with this — note the Grumpycat-like shading around his eyes and mouth, especially.
GrumpySherlock, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper, nfs (sold). But Grumpy Sherlock can now grace your gifts with these very cranky tags.

Sherlock Birthday
Friday, March 22nd, 2013
“The fact of your birth isn’t so much cause for celebration as a biological coincidence –“
“He means, ‘Happy Birthday.'”
Sherlock Birthday cartoon by Amy Crook
Yes, it’s birthday card time here on my art table — there’s a Doctor Who one coming up next week, too. In this case I drew Sherlock in his infamous purple shirt, John in his cute oatmeal sweater, and John’s elbow not quite making it into Sherlock’s ribs to shut him up. I can just feel John gritting his teeth as he tries to cover for Sherlock’s faux pas (again).
Sherlock Birthday, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper, nfs (sold), but you can buy a birthday card on Etsy.

The Brothers Holmes Bonus Comics
Saturday, March 16th, 2013
The Brothers Holmes, Bonus Comic 1, by Amy Crook
In talking to the person who originally commissioned The Brothers Holmes comics, we found two little snippets from other peoples’ stories that inspired her to ask for me to add a pair of color bonus comics to the series. Above, we have a 3-year-old Sherlock in the midst of an obsession with xylophones, and poor Mycroft trying to be all grown up at 10.
Below, you can see that 8-year-old Sherlock’s heard a Monster in the tree that hides his box of treasures, and he’s relying on his big brother Mycroft, now 15, to rescue his things.

Further Adventures of Otter & Hedgehog

Floating Nap, dorky fan art by Amy Crook
Another week, another piece of adorable otter/hedgehog art. I imagine this is the missing bit between the first two pieces, after the hedgehog got tired of swimming but before they dried off and curled up in their scarves to nap.
I imagine this because I’m a big dorky fangirl, and I enjoy it.

Baker Street Crest

Baker Street Crest by Amy Crook
Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the alphabet, I’ve done another B! I took the design for H is for Heraldry, with all its Sherlock-centric themes, and turned it into a B for 221B Baker Street. There’s actually a lot of John Watson in this crest, almost more so than Sherlock Holmes, with the generosity, loyalty, and martial readiness. Sherlock is in there, too, though, both of them rampant and ready to defend their little kingdom.
I decided not to bling up the gold in this one, sticking to a nice bright, warm yellow to represent the Or field on the shield. This also makes them easier to reproduce, so I’ve got note cards for sale on Etsy with the crest, so you can send your next piece of snail mail in style.

Baker Street Crest, detail, by Amy Crook
Above, you can see the detail on the cheerful hedgehog and rather snooty otter. Below, I’ve put it in a frame and you can see how the original stacks up next to my iPhone.
