Just a wip for everyone to see...it's a pain in the rear end and I'm not happy entirely with it....but I will persevere!!

Thanks Gently....the nose and mouth....sod it the whole thing is so difficult!! Got tons of detail in the coat to go too.

The similarity is already stunning. Love it.

I feel responsible for your stress, seeing as I suggested you to draw Tietjens... I'm sorry

But seriously, you're doing brilliantly, I really like it.

No worries Rebecca, I'm glad of the challenge really!!

He looks so incredibly real, Clare! I feel like I could reach out and touch him! That look in his eyes is really intense too!

I can't wait to see more of this!

I agree with Phantom, I love the intensity in his eyes!

You've captured his facial features perfectly! I'd love to be able to draw like that

He's looking great! I can recognise him!
I found him a struggle to draw, and even more of a challenge to sculpt.

You sculpted him Spiral??? This I need to see, have you posted it on here?

Thanks!
As soon as I've finished my latest sculpt I think I'm going to have another go at Sherlock, because I'm still not happy with the likeness.

I look forward to seeing your finished drawing!!!

**Posted by clareiow** March 26, 2014 8:23 pm

**Posted by rebeccaholmes** March 26, 2014 8:24 pm

I know I've already told you, but you deserve to know again...

This is bloody amazing. I am honestly your #1 fan!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** March 26, 2014 8:31 pm

That looks so amazing, so real!

And just for the record, I am your #1 fan too! You're fantastic with a pencil!
