Grandiose! At first look I couldn't believe that it is really done with water colours.

very well done! I think her face/nose here is just slightly longer than in real life which makes her prettier if you ask me

Yeah, I meant to make her look pretty. I even left out some lines on her face and neck...

Though I hate Irene ('cause she flirts with Sherlock :I) I love this painting. Good job! :3

Thank you! Irene's not my favorite character either (at least not the BBC version), but this had been a good practice for my skills.

I was sure this was pencil crayon when I first saw it; this is amazing! How did you get the detail in the hair highlights with watercolour? and such smooth shading for the skin?

The skin was painted with the wet-on-wet technique, and the hair was the tip of a size 4 brush and lots of patience.
