And more art!

Two arts in one night! Well, I drew this one last night. It's for [livejournal.com profile] caitirin, drawn in exchange for knitted socks :3 *luckiest wife ever*

Dirk and Guy, okay? They're her #cutegaydetectives, and hogawd are they awesome characters. *in love with both of them, particularly Dirk maybejustalittle*

If you haven't read her ongoing detective story arc with them, you NEEEEEEED to. It's brilliant. Here, go read it.

The master list of parts (there are four plus a prequel, and my drawing is from the very end of the fourth).




*<3s them like crazy*

#cutegaydetectives!!!! *bounces*

And the role of Guy will be played by young Colin Jeavons. With sideburns. Which is ALWAYS EXCELLENT CASTING in my book :)

There is such palpable anguish here, acushla, just like in the written scene. Gorgeous job, as always.

(Also, stubble! For some unknown reason, I derive TREMENDOUS geeky joy from that stubble.)

n_________n *squeaky noise of happy*

And the role of Guy will be played by young Colin Jeavons.

DUDE, Caitirin said that when I drew it! XD And it wasn't even on purpose! *is ridiculously pleased that her desperately clinging men turn out looking like Colin Jeavons*

Hee, stubble :3 I like Dirk's stubble too. Thank you so much, my darling Janie!

What a lovely drawing. I don't have access to the story, but if this illustration is an indication, I'll bet it's great.

If you would like to read them I've just added you to my friends list so you should be able to see them :)

Isn't Elaby's art AWESOME! I feel SO lucky :)

Eee, thank you so much! I heard that Caitirin added you so you could read it :D Isn't it awesome?

She did and I've already read the prequel. I'm a huge fan of hard-boiled detective fiction, and that story was a pleasure to read. I can't wait to read the rest.

And the Starsky and Hutch icons? Win.

OMG, me toooooooo XD I love hardboiled detectives! Philip Marlowe FTW!

Starsky and Hutch make me just about die with glee. They are possibly the cutest thing on the planet.

Wow, that looks awesome! Those poor boys.

Bwee, thank you! *glomps* Yeah, they're in for some rough times.

This is SO how I pictured them! Eeeee! *particularly loves the hair, and the hands and the stubble, and the eyebrow*

Really? YAY! *glomps* I'm really happy that you like it ^_^ Dirk's hand on his face gave me FITS OMG.
