Description Did I mention that I am the luckiest fan ever? xD I adore the SH games by Frogwares and have done a bit of fanart for them... decided to show it to them to make them feel loved and continue with their work ...  and suddenly we shake hands and I draw officially comics about their games. To me that's like winning the lottery

At the same time I am sad though, because ... it seems the games have far to few eyes on them considering how massivly big the SH fan community is. D:
And super sad makes me that I am such a tiny fan artist. T_T I wish I was a bit more known so that I could send my thousands of followers world wide onto Frogwares heels...

So... uhm... if you haven't done so, like the comic on Frogwares DevBlog (Tumblr)
devblog.sherlockholmes-thegame…
along with the first one
devblog.sherlockholmes-thegame…
to show them you like what they are doing.

There will be more comics, waaaaaaaaay earlier than I am gonna update them here on dA, so if you have a Tumblr account, watch them.

I just got Crimes and Punishments on Steam and I really like it so far! I don't have any game consoles so it's just Steam games for me for the most part.

Which Sherlock game is your favorite? I see several on Steam but I think Crimes and Punishments had the highest rating. I plan on trying the others too eventually. I love the way they made the characters look. When you zoom in on them their skin it looks real. :0

I definitely want to try The Awakened. I just saw that it's on Steam too.

Hahaha, great! I hope you enjoy the game thoroughly!

i love all of them! I suppose some more than others, but they are all great to play and good entertainment.  
the only downside of going backwards is of course the decline in graphical quality. But if you love Holmes and Watson ... And can look past the exterior of their digital look... You will have no trouble enjoying the older games as well.

i always liked the awakened a lot. But even more than that, I like Jack the Ripper. And of course, testament of Sherlock Holmes. I suppose because all of them have a decent level of ... Gore... In them. The one or two bloody corpses just seem to be essential for me to add a bit of thrill to the story. 
Pin contrast you have nemesis. Lupin vs Holmes. No death whatsoever. Hence it is a bit "boring"... Though no less enjoyable. Just of a different kind.

Ahh, that clumsy librarian!) Is he reading some sort of spell from that Cthulhu book? )))
I still wonder why he never gives you the book himself, but makes you look for it through the whole library)
I love Watson's expression on the last panel!) xD

Yep, "The Awakened" game had some crazy moments (but I still cannot understand how Holmes could open keylocks in the asylum with a spoon. Not with a knife or a fork, but a spoon! O_o x)

Windmaedchen In reply to TheGoldenAquarius [2014-06-10 11:49:17 +0000 UTC]

True! I loved it though.... xD A spoon to open a door. It's to fantastic to hate... xD

I think the weirdest thing is that ... Holmes gives the book to Barnes. ... If I was Holmes I would have kept it. All to myself. Strangely generous to give it to Barnes.

TheGoldenAquarius In reply to Windmaedchen [2014-06-11 07:02:50 +0000 UTC]

Maybe Holmes felt that Cthulhu's spirit trapped in that book started to control his mind... And he decided to give it to somebody who did not seem smart enough to be mind controlled, like Barnes. However, this time Holmes was wrong x)

Congratulations! Love the expression in the second panel. What exactly was it that Barnes was researching? Trying to perceive life from a narwhal's point of view? Beautiful work as always!

Windmaedchen In reply to Jarring-chord [2014-06-09 17:08:09 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha. xD Actually not to far away... xD Barnes is reciting an ancient call to the almighty Cthulhu .. which was kinda the theme of the third SH game by Frogwares , The Awakened. Pretty crazy!

And thank you. :3

Wow congratulations!!! You really deserve it. I mean it ! Can't think of anyone better !!
I've been wanting to play the Frogwares games for a while, but they're REALLY hard to find in Australia

Windmaedchen In reply to AnOysterCalledLloyd [2014-06-08 19:13:20 +0000 UTC]

D: That is terrible! They are all on Steam but... you could possibly order them online via amazon or so? ebay maybe? Worst case scenario, I'll get them here for you and ship them over. xD There are always ways!

Windmaedchen In reply to GoodOldBaz [2014-06-08 19:16:38 +0000 UTC]

I would love that to happen. xD I want to share my work with even more people and I'd love to be able to direct them all to Frogwares. xD
But all I have are a few loyal fans (like you ) and that's all I can offer them. Oh well... it makes them happy, so that's my main goal achieved anyway!
