Description
Sherlock & Mycroft in 221b
Done for my flatmate's friend, who adores Mycroft and wanted a pic of Mycroft and Sherlock together.
Really enjoyed especially doing the background of the flat, even if it's not entirely accurate and took ages to color
I don't remember where the paper texture came from, will update if I find the source again, or if anyone knows, feel free to tell me

I'm sorry, but my danger-sense would be set of and I'd run away in the other direction (and hope Mycroft hadn't arranged a kidnapping in such case).
Nothing good could come from them in the same room, getting along, and requesting your presence. >>;
Anyways, it's lovely. xD

I love this - they are so adorable in this picture, very cheerful! All the books and stuff, the colors - there is so much to love in this.

Yeah, that's one of the first thing I KNEW I had to put in the details

Uh-oh, both of them smiling does not bode well...

The details in this just slay me! Hogwarts: a History! I love that and the knitting on the other shelf. Somehow I doubt Sherlock has the patience to knit which just makes it that much funnier.

Hahaha, thank you
*maybe John knits XD*

That would explain all the jumpers!

John has to keep knitting new ones because Sherlock keeps hoarding them under his bed

Hogwarts: A History....
Mycroft and Sherlock both look great!
What did you bribe them with to make them look so happy together?

Hahaha... Thank you! :bows:
I'm actually of the opinion that their bickering is mostly a front, or a mechanism to keep from being completely bored XD
When they do get along, that's when you have to be scared, God knows what the two of them can concoct TOGETHER

Yay! Somebody noticed! XD

Of course I did ^^ tis a great book!
Oh man, I can see Sherlock being all annoyed, like, "He's not giving me enough detail! How am I supposed to figure out who these people are if the author doesn't give me enough detail?!" XP

Is it sad that one of the first things I see is "Hogwarts: A history"?
But it is such a fitting book. I can see Sherlock Sitting in an armchair reading it, and going like, " If the ceiling shows the sky why use magic? Why not just put a Skylight in? That would make more sense."
And Watson would be like "Because its Fiction, Sherlock. It's supposed to me magical."
"....its illogical"
Mycroft look
But this is really cool, and the detail is amazing! Its nice to see them smiling in the same room without one of them standing on the others dead body XD
Very sweet

Hahaha, "Hogwarts: A History" is actually the first book that I KNOW I just have to put there, so maybe we're just strange in the same way
Plus, I suspect their hostility is really more of a game for them, just to keep everyone else off balance and things at least somewhat interesting between them, but that's probably just me
Anyway, thank you for the lovely comment, I'm glad you like this

I agree with you. They're hostile because just being neutral would be boring and they're too awkward to get along properly.

"The Holmes Brothers" almost sounds like a new band or something... Or maybe it's just me
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
someone MUST make it into a band. someday.

I'll get on that... 
And have you ever heard of the Vitamin String Quartet? Sherlock and Mycroft could be like that xDDD
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
no! need to hear it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Vitamin String Quartet does all sorts of songs/tributes to other bands, but here's one I think we've all heard of: [link]
And BTW I also already started the lineart for that "Holmes Brothers" thing we were talking about.
