Description
In case it's hard to tell, or if you just haven't seen s2e1 of BBC's Sherlock, that's Benedict Cumberbatch under all that fabric! ;DTook a break from some bigger projects to do this... I just wanted to draw his rather intriguing eyes (or just one of them) so I thought this particular scene would be perfect to reference.
Anyone else wonder how he was able to take on so many armed men... with just a machete? XD
- mechanical pencil on Moleskine watercolour paper
- editing & colour addition in Photoshop

It looks fantastic! The eye...wow, stunning. And the fabric is really well done.
(I heard other people say that he was not only armed with a sword, but with his deady cheekbones

Oh, thanks! I almost didn't draw them, actually, cause I couldn't see his lashes in the bad screenshot I was referencing... They were added in the end, after I found a nicer photo of his eyes! XD

This is f*cking amazing. I have no other words to describe this. I love how you can see the excitement in his eye.
Also, you draw fabric ridiculously well.

Yeah, it'll be the greatest mystery of this show. It looked like something Rambo would do. And still I wish I could forget about this scene and whole episode, it's Sherlock Holmes not friggin A Team
Oh btw, I love your drawing

He took them on with the power of his awesome and they were knocked out by the waves of incredibleness. And then he corrected their grammar. And mine, because incredibleness isn't a word.

The most fantastic thing about this is that you can tell exactly who it is without needing to ask

He's super Sherlock! He can dazzle them all by simply blinding them with the blade! 
Great composition and texture, and I like the colour edit.

Haha, yes, I wouldn't doubt his ingenuity!
Well thank you! ^^

oh, gorgeous work on the fabric <3
I hated that ending, though. It seemed so silly he would follow her to the other side of the earth without anyone noticing and then, yes, take on so many men. I really would have preferred if the episode ended with him standing at the window looking at his phone, and that we'd never find out whether Irene was dead or alive. But that's just my opinion
