These are sooooo adorable, they give me many lols! But how do you do it? Do you take a blank lego and paint him? 'Cause your Study in Crimson ones are very personalized, and doubt you can just buy that anywhere XD

Thank you so much!
With LEGO minifigures you can mix and match different heads. It is a matter of selecting the right head for right character. Painting LEGO, or altering the bricks, would be considered cheating. (I did cheat in the Study in Crimson one by modifying the dagger so it could be inserted into the arm where the hand should have been!)

Hah! You cut off his hand and attached a dagger; 'tis fitting! And I love your title for these. Bricks without clay...Holmes would not be amused...

The hands are detachable from the arms. I had to modify the dagger handle to attach it to the arm. Serious LEGO purists would be aghast!

LEGO purists? Who knew...
