Critique by ~S-A--K-I Oct 12, 2012, 12:25:16 AM
Firstly, nothing to 'criticize' about. And like a speechless, wide eyed fan of your art, and that being only the first one I came across, let me try to express what made me so.
1. The sunlight on the hair. The soft glow. The messy mop at the front, being typical Cumberbatch.
2.The skin tone. That's him too.
3.The expression. Those eyes. The arrogance.
4.The contrast brought in by the use of negative space.

And the only thing that could have been here as well, is a little more protrusion of his cheek bone. Benedict Cumberbatch has got the hell of cheekbones.

And yes, that it looks actually like a photograph, adds to the pure awe.

Beautiful. Impeccable. Peroid.
What do you think?

This was just a jaw dropping, breath taking piece of work.
When I saw it I honestly thought it was a photograph, I'm still not sure if you are just lying about it being a painting its that good. Whatever you are doing keep doing it because you paint better then some professionals I have seen.

Everything you have done in this photo, I don't even know how to describe it the hair, clothes, eyes it all just looks so real! You have a great skill and I would hate to see it put to waste. I'm not sure if I can express how much I love this but it has been the best Sherlock piece of art I have seen.

He really is the most beautiful man in the world isn't he? I just never get tired of looking at him, even if he's not the standard Hollywood hunk :D

This painting has soul! That was the first thought I had when I saw it.
Quite a lot of good Sherlocks around but this is my absolute favorite!
Thanks for sharing this!
