Redraw of Apothecary and Haberdashery c. 1890
The original drawing had early automobiles in it. This redraw with numerous changes in it, has a "hack" instead.
Changes include: NO bitmaps, a few items added in the windows of the shops, a woman in the upstairs window opposite of Sherlock, Professor Moriarty walking down the street, a rat, a chip in the sidewalk curb and a few color adjustments.
Hope you like it...

Some close ups...
Not so strange, as I see some things I still want to edit or change, but that's me for you...:confused:

I like it Ron, even better than the original. =D>:star=D>
Re: Redraw of Apothecary and Haberdashery c. 1890
Even better! And fantastic detail. BUT, the guy on the bicycle should be bigger since he is nearer the viewer.

Thanks To my, Larry band Gary.
Gary:
Yes. He needs to be larger and there are a few other changes coming.

Ok, I added an "overlay" transparency to the overall drawing, enlarged the bicyclist for proper scale and redressed the lady on the street leaving 221 B Baker Street address. Her previous attire was not era specific enough, I thought. I did a little research on the ladies dresses of the period and came up with this current version.

Ok, I'm really close to done.
I added some chips and cracks in the sidewalk, some litter in the street, and I thought the windows above the haberdashery were too plain, so I added framing to those. I moved a couple of things. Changed the font on the apothecary name and changed the haberdashery sign name and font. I think that's all...

Lot's of stuff going on, even a rat in the gutter! Great work, Ron!
One thing I would change is the white stucco. It's so light that it makes my eyes want to go there. This might be a good thing, however, if you want the viewer to spot good old Sherlock (?) behind the window.... Another thing is that I find the stucco's texture a bit too blurred when compared to the sharp renderings of the rest of the background textures.

Good observation , Boy. I''ve had real difficulty trying to replicate the effect as shown in photos.
Thanks Boy,
