Description TGMD = The Great Mouse Detective

Let's just say Basil and Birdie found the next clue in finding the fortune of Birdie's grandmother, and Birdie gets a tad too excited.
Showing off her underwear and all.
Basil does not approve - or does he?

I wanted to make it appear as a vintage postcard - and failed.

Also STRIPES and how do skirts even work?

Teehehehehehehehe!! Oh, I LOVE how enthusiastic Birdie is! It seems like nothing can stop her when she's on a roll! And Basil, oh my. That expression on his face is so priceless, and he looks very handsome in that outfit. Very nice change from his usual brown vest and coat.Β

I saw a picture of Victorian male outfits, and I was like: "BASIL SHOULD WEAR THIS BLUE BROWN ONE OMG"
And then this was the result

Thank you for the lovely comment!

LOL, Birdie and her undies. She's too cute. I just want to pick her up and smoosh her to my chest. And dem colours!! Colours everywhere! I love the colours on the meeces. Basil looks extra dashing in blue (especially here. I love his sass.) and Birdie's skirt is something I would pick out of a Victorian catalogue. EEEE- I love all of this!!

Um...nope I don't think he approves of seeing such a sight. The colors you chose really do give off a more vintage look and feel. I adore your clothes design for both of them. It's nice to see Basil in something different.

OH am I excited to see this! I love your use of colours, and how many of them you've incorporated into one piece. Well done indeed! The warmth of the piece is excellent and I adore how Basil and Birdie stand out from the background.
The choice of clothes is adorable; Basil looks so unusually sweet in this wear, and I dig that you changed his wardrobe - it makes it so much more fun and entertaining to watch. The colour-mix really works, and blue is adorable on him.
birdie is CUTE! I love her outfit, and her excitement is to die for - no dress can ever hold Birdie back, no sir!
The stripes are excellent and the general pattern is very pretty; the colours (as always) are amazing and contrast her so very nicely.
and man, those uderwear of hers cute.
Their poses are excellent! I can absolutely feel the post-card-y vibe you went for, and I really think you did great. This is a STUNNING piece!

YOU'RE ADORABLE <3

Thankyou so much for this comment!

I actually saw this colour scheme on Basil in a book with photos of Victorian fashion for males.
Well, it's not exactly the same, since I'm bound on the colours of my markers, but I agree it looks nice on him!
I was afraid it wouldn't fit Basil, but thankfully that didn't happen

Birdie is an excited farm gal y'all. Get out of the way!
I wonder how she'd be in those late 19th century dresses, those extremely narrow skirts where they have to tripple in.
I read the ladies back then wearing those dresses, often wore a thin chain around their ankles so they couldn't take big steps O_o
Birdie would not approve. She'd definitely fall. In a pool of water. Screaming. *sees vivid image*

Aww, this is beautiful hon, freaking gorgeous. I love their outfits so much, you always put such detail into your character's wardrobe ^^ Birdie is gorgeous as always, I love how you didΒ the folds in her skirt, andΒ I must say Basil looks pretty smashing in stripes Β And I think it still looks vintage.Β If this were on a postcard I would buy it in a heartbeat

Ah, thank you so much darling!

I'm just a sucker for the fashion of that time period, and they were pretty detailed outfits back then.
Especially for the ladies! <333

I just wanted Birdie to have a striped outfit, and afterwards I was like: "BASIL NEEDS SOME STRIPES TOO"

Aww, that's good to hear! I've stared on it for so long I wasn't sure it would appear as something vintage-y <3

But I regret nothiiing~

Thank you so much dollface! ^_^

Look like Birdie's more exciting than Basil
Up to now I'm still impressed with the way you color the picture. Not only colored the character, you also colored the shadow too . And it can say ... it's very detail . Great work , Yara !!

Yaraffinity In reply to doraemonbasil [2014-03-26 08:57:52 +0000 UTC]

I know right!
Birdie is probably like: "OMG LOOK, CLUES OVER THERE!"
And Basil would be: "They're just clues, I see them every day >_>; "

Thankyou so much sweethaert You're so kind!

Thankyouuuuuu Jazzyyyyy

I allow you to stare at it forever!
And Basil... always fun to give him these type of expressions!
His interaction with others are always hilarious, that odd bastard with awkward social skills

You didn't fail. If I saw this in a gift shop in postcard form, I would buy it. Like Birdie's grandmother's fortune, Your art is a precious treasure, worth owning for all time.
