Description A Sherlock BBC papercutting featuring Sherlock Holmes and John Watson in front of their flat.

It's a bit rough; if I were making a proper project of this I'd call this a draft and do another version with cleaner cuts. But for an experiment I think it came out pretty well.

Done with craft knife on regular letter-size paper.

Edit: Wow, a DD! Thank you to =xthumbtakx and ^FrockTarts , and to everyone for the lovely comments and favs! This paper experiment was the one that led to many more, so I'm thrilled that people like it so much.

I think it's a piece of really cool art - simply because from the first sight I knew somehow that this papercutting shows Sherlock and Watson! And it's not about the number on the door!

Glad you like!

Do you mean you want to cut something like this for your door? Thanks for asking, and yes you're welcome to do it.

Oh great I'll see if I can get this special film which is used to make wall tattoos...
Our door is white, so this is an advance. I'd have to create either the black parts OR do the white in black (which would be actually easier)
