A Sherlock BBC papercutting featuring Sherlock Holmes and John Watson in front of their flat.

It's a bit rough; if I were making a proper project of this I'd call this a draft and do another version with cleaner cuts. But for an experiment I think it came out pretty well.

Done with craft knife on regular letter-size paper.

Edit: Wow, a DD! Thank you to =xthumbtakx and ^FrockTarts, and to everyone for the lovely comments and favs! This paper experiment was the one that led to many more, so I'm thrilled that people like it so much.

So nicely done. I think the rough cuts add a more gestural, handmade quality.

I love how recognizable they are just by their silhouettes, though the street number and scarf help

Is paper best for this sort of thing? Because I've been using a stanley knife on cardboard and it comes out quite badly. Any tips?
