Description
It was raining endlessly a while back (and fittingly there've been some pretty bad storms these last few days) and I wanted something warm and comfy to counteract that, so this is Holmes and Watson taking care of a very cold and wet Inspector, after he got soaked in a sudden downpour.A fire, tea and good company pretty much cure all cold- and rain-related ills
Edit I: It's so blurry... why is it so blurry? I read the FAQs and somehow they're not helpful at all. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get the picture to stay sharp after I've uploaded it? Help, please? I hope it's better now...

Glee! It's like all my favourite things in one picture -- Jeavons!Lestrade being rumpled and adorable and getting taken care of, and Watson being a caretaker (is that Solomin!Watson? That certainly looks like a Solomin suit. If so, double squee!), and Holmes being at least tolerant (and barefoot. Hee~). The colours and detail and shadows are all lovely -- I'm especially taken with the socks drying in front of the fire.

Thank you!
While my Lestrade is pretty much all Colin Jeavons, the way I imagine Holmes and Watson is more or less a mashup of the Granada series, my imagination and other influences. It's very likely that Solomin!Watson is in there somewhere (since the whole Russian Sherlock Holmes was amazing and I enjoyed it immensely ).
I'm glad you like the socks ;D

... why do I keep thinking "One true threesome"? I don't even support them that way!
Beautifully done. I particularly like the paintings on the walls.

Thank you! ^^
I don't know why, but I really like the idea of Holmes just not bothering to put shoes on and walking around the flat barefoot.

Lovely. In the thumbnail Holmes looks coldly vacant,in the actual picture he's actually smiling fondly: I think this is Holmes summed up in one painting And Watson with tea! Lestrade is absolutely perfect too, this painting makes me feel warm. <3

Thank you!
I'm glad the fondness in Holmes' expression comes across
I've had to downsize it quite a bit to get it to not be all blurry and I'm afraid their expressions suffered a bit because of that.

You did a fantstic job, the poses and comfort are beautifully done.
One thing though... what's the name of that waterfall?

Thank you!
They actually have picture of a waterfall hanging over the fireplace in the Granada series, so I just went with it. I've really started to like the idea^^.

Aaaaw so cuuute! Good choice to depict a scene of domestic comfy-ness with a fire and a tea-pot. Watson is dashing even when seen from behind. And the Inspector has a red nose! *eeeep* Really good Granada-likeness on both Holmes and Lestrade.
Is that a man walking a dog on the painting to the right btw?
