Snape and Sherlock WIP Part 3

Not quite done, but here's the piece so far. I wanted to draw these two in parallel as much as possible since the purpose of this piece is to highlight their similarities. This meant I wanted to use similar coloring techniques on both. Both have a talisman that is not black and both have a textured hero's cape of sorts. Sherlock's coat pleases me with how it came out, but I struggled a bit finding a way to incorporate a different but parallel technique for Snape's robes. Black is always tricky to represent, but I settled on tiny circles with tight horizontal lines to give his robes a more fluid feel.

Ha! at how Snape's clothes make Sherlock's coat look not black at all! It reads as black or almost black usually, but this is like "Oh, I'll show you black. Mua ha ha ha ha."
Both of them make me just want to slide my hands around their waists, beneath their cloaks, and embrace them. I feel like I know these prickly, complicated people. I am quite sure they both love me. :-) I will be nice to them and I will just laugh when they grumble.

And now we are off to the text. I'll shall be emailing. This will be the tricky part, but I am excited and want to finish this this weekend.
Also, a title. I'm feeling something to do with Not being heros, with Anti-heros. The bravest and best men.
