John & Sherlock's Silver Wedding

PARIS! You stinking, stupid, nasty old whore of a city, I can't believe this: I've actually missed you! The other reason I'm glad to be back is that I will finally be able to get to serious work again.

I have two commissions to finish, one for mlyn  and one for ivyblossom , but before that, girls, allow me to post some Sherlock/John because it's been a LONG time, and I've missed drawing our boys, so much it hurt.

Below the cut is a little obsession of mine: any mention of Sherlock and John growing old together is enough to make me horribly emotional and start crying rivers. I dunno, I think the reason I love them so much as an OTP is that I think it's really possible, unlike any other couple; they fit so much together that the image of them old and still in love is tangible, very real. Also, it's canon, so it doesn't get any better than this, right?
So, sketches of old!Sherlock and old!John under the cut, here they are:

( But all the promises we make/from the cradle to the grave/when all I want is you )

I'll do a painting based on the first sketch and post it later (maybe tomorrow), it's been a long time since I've touched gouache too.
