Description Ok, I just HAD to do this The way this came about is like this: First, I wondered, "Hmm, wonder what I'd look like as a mouse?" then I thought, "Wonder what would happen if I were able to meet Basil of Baker Street?" So here's the result I'd like to think Basil's a gentlemouse I'm a quiet, shy person, so this would probably be my real reaction if this were possible. And if it were to happen, I'd probably be giggling like a crazed fangirl and unable to form a cohesive sentence

Ahem...So yeah, I tried to make it look like me as much as possible. And I looked at all kinds of dresses to try to see what women wore in that time period, and I didn't like most of them, so I ended up kinda improvising And I TOTALLY messed up Basil's hair and eye cuz the stupid ink smeared. And I also tried to do the background from memory

EDIT: Resubmitted since I FINALLY got a scanner

This is a nice drawing. I like the way you gave the characters a darker outline so that they stand out from the background more. You also did a good job making your OC look shy - she has a nice dress too. I also like the way that Basil is holding his hat behind his back during this introduction - it just seems like something he'd do. Imaginative drawing.

Except I wouldn't be a mouse. I'd still be a Mobian hedgehog. I know it sounds Mary-sue-ish, but I really don't care.

Oh no, that's fine! Mobian hedgehog... that's from Sonic, right? I'm not as familiar with that fandom, I just know a little bit from when my brother sometimes shares his comics with me

Oh that's so cool! I love to hear the violin, and would love to be able to play it. I can't play any musical instrument as of yet Oh you should! Of course, I never saw the connection between the two till I was older, but it's amazing just how much Basil is exactly like Holmes!

Very Very Nice! I love the way you drew Basil. He looks so sweet and you! Man I wish I could draw myself in different forms like this! I would be spazzing out too! XD Great job!

Thank you very much! I was so mad cuz the ink smeared on Basil... but I was very happy with how we both turned out....that is, until now, almost a week later, I notice that I completely messed up Basil's hand...It's on the wrong arm! I must have been thinking I was doing the other arm. It's actually kinda hilarious when I look at it now...it's like its on backwards or something. (maybe I shouldn't have pointed it out so no one would notice ) oh well.

Seriously, have you ever had your hand kissed? It's actually nice and very flattering! I really love this; you look so cute and shy as a mouse. Definitely more on the shy part, but it is expected when meeting the greatest detective in all of mousedom--you're basically meeting a celebrity. "Pttthbt" on backgrounds, they're eeeevil, but it's okay, you have a very good memory of his flat!

No, I've never had my hand kissed, but I'd love for Basil to be the first one to do it! (oh my... did I just say that out loud? ) LOL

Thank you hon!

I figured you would, and so would I! It's not a very common thing anymore, I notice elderly gents do it more. You're welcome!

I think you did a wonderful job at this. Trust me, if I were a mouse and was able to met Basil, I'd be acting just like you. When looking at the dresses during the Victorian Era, I didn't like many of them either, so I really love what you came up with.
