The suggester said: "This piece of intricate pixelling brought a smile to my face when I discovered it. Not only is it a wonderful reference to the BBC Sherlock series but it also makes beautifully smooth use of dithering and patterns whilst maintaining a colour count of 40."

Sherlockian Pixels

Description

It was a dark and stormy night, so I felt the need to pixel something Sherlock. I’ve got another larger pixel doll in the works but wanted to work on something different and I’ve recently become obsessed with BBC Sherlock so it was inevitable…. The theme song is now my ringtone even.
Included in the little still life are fun Sherlock insiders: the skull, jam, “get milk” note, kitten paw prints (in the jam, sort of hard to make out), onions, and a little honey bee. I was tempted to add a little heart, but decided I liked the no nonsense version (though of course it’s more or less all nonsense). I won’t explain the meaning behind all these things; Sherlock fans know already and everyone else should go watch Sherlock and become an onion.

Hand pixeled.
Photoshop + wacom tablet.
