Art recs: the Holmes brothers rivalry

[brighteyed-jill.livejournal.com]

Today I bring you two recs from the larger-than-you’d-think subgenre of humorous art featuring the rivalry between the Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes.

Title: Boxing Considerably Cleverer Than You
Artist redscharlach
Pairing: Gen
Length: n/a
Rating: PG for violence
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Artist's summary: And now, a small dose of fan art frivolity. Someone over at sherlockbbc expressed a wish to see "fisticuffs between the Holmes brothers" and this thing popped out of my brain. So please lean out of the nearest open window and witness the startling Sherlockian spectacle that occurs WHEN BROTHERS BUTT HEADS!
Reccer's comments: This stylish retro-esque poster, advertising a boxing match between the Holmes brothers, is clever enough that each new piece of the text I read had me giggling.

Title: Gentlemen Will Walk
Artist: viestelar
Pairing: Gen
Length: n/a
Rating: PG for violence
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Artist's summary: Gentlemen Will Walk... but never run. Mycroft hates running.
Okay, I just needed an excuse to draw MORE Sherlock and Mycroft. And the Mighty Umbrella of Doom.
Reccer's comments: This beautifully drawn comic features not only splendid likenesses, but also terrific characterization, as Sherlock and Mycroft find themselves in a spot of danger together. Also, please note the pattern of Mycroft’s tie. Hilarious, and adorable.
