sevenswellsThis is definitely not Sunday Porn. Maybe Sunday PG-13...? Don't worry, I won't make a habit of it.
I'm listening to a lot of The Bravery's songs these days, and I particularly love "Split Me Wide Open". So when I read![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
etothepii 's Sherlock/Addams Family crossover fic today, Your Body Before Me, I felt some kind of resonance, and I just had to do a fanart (go read it, btw, it's truly fantastic stuff, I'm a huge fan of this author). Why I mainly do fanarts of weird/creepy stuff is a question I try not to ask myself too much.
The technique is gouache and watercolour pencils, the pairing is Sherlock/John. The rating is... mmmmh let's say R, because the fanart is still kind of weird; basically, it's Sherlock kissing John's severed head, but John isn't dead. Like I said, it's an Addams Family crossover, so John can't die just because his head isn't attached to his body. It's not very gory, though. I tried to draw something cute, actually.
Okay, whatever, here it is:
Preparatory sketch:
And the finished illustration:

T3T). So I figured, at least for the fanfic fanarts that I've painted using traditional technique, since I don't use it very often, I could give them to the original fic authors ^^ It's okay though, if anything I can understand the implications of leading a double life ;) Hell, if some people very close to me were to stumble upon most of the shit I do, I would have to answer to awkward questions...
