I was made to walk out into the swimming pool area where, I discovered, Sherlock was waiting. The voice in my ear, which I vaguely recognised, told me to say some stuff - which, I realised, gave the impression that I was behind it all. That I, John Watson, was Moriarty. I could see the look in Sherlock’s eyes - a flash of, not anger, but hurt. For a second, he looked like a little, lost child. I should have been horrified that he’d even doubt me for a second but, to be honest, it was so refreshingly human of him. He actually did value our friendship. He did, despite himself, care. Then he saw the explosives on me and he realised what was happening. the blog of dr. john h. watson, april 1st
Was working on some Glamlock, and I accidentally BAMF!John, because of THAT picture and AbundantlyQueer geeking out about it :D
Unfinished speed-paint, I picked the colors from the original picture with the eyedropper (lazy, I know) and just painted away…
Some people wondered about the pattern. I didn’t really have one, I sketched it and drew directly on test fabric and draped it from there. These are some progress pics, from original, to ugly insides, to final product. The original Tumblr post about The Coat is this one here, So, I needed a coat…
The rest of the pattern pieces and notes are on my LiveJournal - A Study in Coat - Pattern Sketches and Notes, for all those interested. Not for the faint hearted - some experience adjusting and drafting would be helpful, or just go at it with a test piece first in cheap fabric. You can see all previous posts on the topic by using the tag ‘How to Make’ on my LJ.
