cp from Tumblr cus I'm lazy lol

I realized I never drew anything for the #BelieveinSherlock fandom trend so here’s one. Sometime ago the weather in Van was shitty as usual and I was feeling shitty while walking on an overcrowded street, and then “Illusion and Dream” came on, I thought, this could work in John’s perspective against the world.

Basing every piece on PotF songs and not even sorry hurr

This will be for sale @ Anime Revolution in Vancouver Aug 17-19

This is a wonderful picture. I think your use of the color is amazing and the text at the bottom is done well and does not distract from the picture itself.
The only thing I would say is that the actual faces of the people in the crowd distract from Sherlock and Watson. For example, I though the business man was Moriarty and it took me a minute to realize the whole picture. It would have been more effective to maybe downplay and maybe darken the crowd but I applaud you for being able to add such detail. Beautiful picture.
What do you think?

Brilliant stuff, but could do with some differences.

Like some other critiques I saw, the random business guy pops into view first. If you wanted to fix that, I would suggest making the glow around Sherly a bit brighter.

The vision has a lot to do with the impact of the piece. It takes a second to realize it's Sherlock in the picture, and by then the gleam of the picture has dulled a bit.

All in all, this was a very cool peice. I showed it to my Mum-er friend and she loved it. But seriously, very very cool!! :)

incredible! I am so very impressed by this. Im not much of artist on this aspect, but both the crowd and the guy on the phone makes me think of at least a couple of good stories.
