70s AU Masterpost
This is the first post on my side Tumblr. If you're new to my 1970s Holmes & Watson AU: WELCOME!
I've always wanted to do my own interpretation of Doyle's duo. However, I was never good with Victorian fashion or design. I was always more interested in media, fashion and history from the 40s to the 70s. So, as I was writing my master thesis in 2019 I was thinking: "What if Holmes and Watson met in the early 1970s?" And that's when the 70s AU was born.
While characterizations stay somewhat the same, there are clear differences from Doyle's vision. Watson is now an English-American and a Vietnam War veteran, for example. If you want to know more about that you can read some snippets from my AU here.
This blog will mainly be art, musings and writing about this. Hopefully I'll feel more motivated to do a comic or write more soon. This is truly my passion project, so if you enjoy let me know!
ALSO: Not every post is going to be in chronological order (from earliest to most recent). Plus I do use references for most of my pieces of either myself or from the internet. Just to make that clear.
Again: thank you!
