Nooooo...it's NOT that simple. Basil, like Holmes, chooses a life of celibacy because he distrusts women, women are distraction from work, women really aren't of interest to him, and work is everything to him. But...you can SAYYYYY she's a "romantic interest" but it's unrequited and (probably) one-sided, but you're not really sure. If there was a woman he had any sexual interest in, a genuine romantic intention that made him DOUBT a choosing a life of celibacy, then...it would be her, yes.

No, I wasn't mad. Not at all. It's just....complicated relationship. Definitely read the artist's descriptions to learn more about her. They're started out as antagonists, but Basil, like Holmes, found out she was a woman wronged, she just withheld these letters and a photograph (to prove the letters written to her were from a king) that could scandalize and "cripple" the monarchy of a nation. All she wanted was justice. There was nothing malicious behind the act, it was really her own protection. Basil was hired by the King of Bohemia to retrieve the photograph, thus disproving the letters she kept, but he failed. He, like Holmes, was beaten only four times -- three times by men, once by a woman. Instead of being mad at her, he ended up respecting her, became enamoured by her, because of this, he will always refer to her as "the Woman." It's romantic, really. That's why she's a romantic interest, but...not a girlfriend. They're relationship is at a distance. They admire each other from afar and rarely meet up. And when they do, they always seem to be on opposite sides. It's sexual tension at its best.

Nope, pretty much the same. But I'm not sure yet. I haven't written out the adventure, so I don't know if there's a Godfrey Norton. But it's more expanded version of the initial "Scandal in Bohemia." And they, eventually, meet up more than once. About....four or five times at the least.

That's....the big question: Again, it's not a simple question. Despite what Watson may describe Holmes as this thinking machine without emotions, it's completely untrue. If you read the Sacred Writings (the original 60 stories by Conan Doyle), you see that emotions make up a great deal of his life, shape his opinions, and form out solutions. He is capable of emotions, but chooses his brain over his heart. Did he "love" Adler? I...personally think so, yes, but...nothing sexual happened between them. It's debatable if Adler felt anything for him beyond admiration and respect. There seems to be a twinge of sexual attraction, but in the story, she married another man, so...really, Holmes is shit out of luck there, so he's content in admiring her from afar. Now...once Holmes retires, he starts writing some of his adventures on his own. These adventures don't have Watson in them. They're accounts Holmes personal wrote and you see a VERY different side of Holmes as a character. Watson's description seems odd in comparison, because Watson saw Holmes' lack of emotions and lack of romantic interest as "unnatural," which is why he deemed him as more machine than man. That's Watson's opinion. You read Holmes describing himself in his own words...it's different. He actually confesses his loneliness in his retirement. There's this lace of regret tied to his loneliness, but is aware that he chose that course in life and is, for the most part, content; but there's that whisper of regret that...he's alone. It's INTRIGUING to say the least. Throughout the Sacred Writings, he does mention Irene Adler a few times. So if there's any woman that he was in love with...it would be most likely Adler. He would never confess it, but...that's the beauty of it. We'll never truly ever know if he did or not, because it's something it's information that he took to his grave.

Some people don't believe he was in love with her. Some people do. Holmes will NEVER tell, and neither will she. And remember....he has a photograph of her. He requested it, refusing an expensive emerald ring, for this photograph of her. He displays it somewhere in the Baker Street flat. Sounds like a man with a CRUSH to me!

You're welcome! Glad I can help! These same rules apply to anthros and humans. There's always guidelines. I looked through you gallery. Two drawings, but a lot of promise. I'd love to see your work once you place these in practice. If you need any help, do tell me.

Construction lines are very important for me. Everything can be made into a shape. It's all a basic shape and they are building boxes to art.

Yeah I have to have construction lines and rules when I do something. I'm always looking for rules and writing guidelines to better understand drawing.
I'm wondering how I can find a group/club of people who will help me with my art. Is there such a thing?
