I would have a serious caption for this because I love Fitzjames but the entire time I was painting this, all I could think of was a line from Cabin Pressure: “Look, I keep telling you, I didn’t ask for extra. It’s just the standard amount of gold braid they put on a captain’s hat these days!”

Sherlock Holmes doodles from work today, because I was listening to an audiobook of some of the stories today and was inspired.

#does watson actually call his face aesthetic   

aw jeeze, @seriesfive, good eye- that is, in fact, a typo. I was transcribing the quote from the audiobook rather than a print source, it was indistinctly pronounced, and I apparently didn’t question it. (This post is five years old now, so I… I assume that’s how that happened, anyway). It definitely should be “ascetic.”

I’ve started a patreon where I am creating humorous and/or informative comics about outdoorsmanship- and about how my dog has no patience whatsoever for botany, birdwatching, or animal identification. 

Support me on patreon to get early access to comics, patron-exclusive art, and a variety of other rewards. Also, for those of you following the progress of my big ‘how to write survival situations’ resource document, that will be available to patrons a month before the general public!

So guess what’s finally getting started! This project was meant to launch publicly a month ago, but I’ve gotten there eventually, despite June being a bit of a nightmare. Essentially, this patreon is going to cover the majority of my non-fandom art, of which I will be producing more! New original content, which you, depending on your support level, will get a say in! 

It’ll be just like going hiking with me- all of the misadventures and excited identification of plants and animals, with none of the sweat and sunburns.
