25 Sherlock (BBC)

Notes;
So this is the set that almost killed me.
I thought making Sherlock icons would be wonderfully easy because it's such an amazing show, but this month, I learned otherwise.  Though I originally planned to work with the whole show, the first few icons I made all featured Irene Adler...so I decided to work only with "A Scandal in Belgravia" for the time being.  I kept opening caps and getting halfway through coloring them before realizing that I had absolutely no idea what to do with them.  I think it was partially feeling creatively blocked and partially because everyone has made Sherlock icons, so I've seen what seems like dozens of other interpretations of each cap, each more creative and wonderful than mine.  
Having so many other great Sherlock icons really pushed me, I think, so I played with blending and text a bit more than usual (though my compositions are all still terribly bland).  This was also made for Round 08 (Warm and Cool) at inspired20in20, so I tried to make a variety of icons across the spectrum.  As usual, I appreciate whatever concrit you may have.
