Notes :-
  1. My muse went on a holiday. I tried to woo her back with an IQ entry. She's not very pleased and has gone off in a huff again. ;_;
  2. This icon dump is so full of aborted contest entries, it is pathetic. I sign up, I do half the set and then I forget and by the time I remember again, TOO LATE. Y YOU SO DISORGANIZSED SELF?
  3. I got one Ask The Maker Tutorial posted. The text one is almost done and should be up by next week. And the yellow/greens one should be hopefully done soon too. In any case, I plan to get them up before the year ends. I SWEAR, I REALLY DO.

Notes : Thoughts and feelings of which I have plenty shall be posted tomorrow.
  1. You were promised feelings. You shall receive them. Let's forget about the part where no one asked. I LIKE TALKING ABOUT FEELINGS.
  2. I was feelings really uninspired at first with the iconquest challenge at first. I mean, whatever I tried, it all felt like a steaming pile of shit. Turned out all I needed to do was step away for awhile. I feel pretty pleased with what I have now. And I'm especially proud that I wrangled some text icons that I like. ARIAL BLACK FTW. ( I only noticed the mistake in the Annie icon now. BOO ;_;)
  3. Cutting out backgrounds is fun now that I discovered how to do it. I think I will now beat this technique into the ground by overusing it.
  4. For the iconquest challenge, the reason I chose Community was because : a) I LOVE THE SHOW. Any reason to icon is welcome. b) Every episode in Community is an Adventure. And because I'm nothing but literal, I picked Advanced Dungeons and Dragons to icon as well as Remedial Chaos Theory.
  5. I will shut up now.

Notes : All notes about the icons shall be added tomorrow. I'm too sleepy to have coherent thoughts.
  • I'm awake now but still not coherent enough. WOE IS ME.
  • Most of the inspirations are pretty straightforward but few are a bit roundabout.
  • I actually dont have much to say. Heh. Except well, sorry for bombarding you guys so soon with another post. There wont be another one for awhile.
  • CONCRIT is always welcome. Enjoy? :D
ETA : GODDAMMIT, I KEEP FORGETTING. Anyways, here goes.

Dudes, thank you for the nomination and plus ones at Magic Awards. And even the votes. It means a world to me that my name is up there with some fan-fucking-tastic makers who I hugely admire. Really guys, thank you from the bottom of my heart. :') <3

I intially wanted to post a batch of hundred but yeah, at the rate at which I work in PSP, that was not going to be possible by the year end. So instead, you have a batch of 70, even and nice. :D This batch, I started trying to use textures. Some places I felt like they worked fantastic, some places, they made me want to texture my own face. -.- Anyhow, never mind that. This batch, I also realised that I tend to work on close crops. More on a person than a situation or scene. ...I need to fix that. :( Which will be explored in my next batch.

AAALSO, this batch has a lot of black and white and monochromes. Why you ask? Well, actually because b&w is my go to resort when I can't work with a cap. Monochromatic colours are because sometimes even b&w caps need something zuzh them up. Starkness and shades of gray apparently aren't enough nowadays.

Also, since my last post, the comm has 4 new watchers! AAAAACCCKKKKKK! That makes me flaily with delight cause, lol, I never thought y'know the watchers would increase beyond 5, myself included. Anyways, yes, this is VERY thrilling for me. Thank you guys! :D

Onwards!

1 - 27 Community for [livejournal.com profile] big20in20
28 - 38 Community
39 - 43 Captain America
44 - 48 Merlin ; Katie McGrath
49 - 51 Once Upon A Time
52 - 54 Pretty Little Liars
55 - 56 Misfits
57 - 62 Emma Watson ; Harry Potter
63 - 65 Stock ; Fashion
66 - 67 Alice in Wonderland
68 - 69 The Art of Getting By
79 - 71 Rachel Weisz
72 - 73 Tangled
74 Rango
75 Back To The Future

Firstly, I think most of this batch was done for various icontests, for the [livejournal.com profile] ic0nfest and such like. It would explain why there are a lot of fandoms which I dont usually do cause I dont even watch. Also, I decided to try out different colouring techniques this time. Mostly the abuse of greens and yellows that is. And some of the results, I like. Some others, no so much.

Also, I thought my 20in20 claim was due today and I broke my brains trying to finish it. And some of the icons were a bitch to finish. I was legit splitting hairs over them. Especially, crossover, association and pointless. While I somehow liked crossover and association, pointless I don not like. Actually, I dont like my interpretative themes. I don't think I did such a good job with them. :(

1 - 9 - Harry Potter and Cast
10 - 22 - Community
23 - 26 - Miscellaneous interests
27 - 46 (various icons for challenges )

Two things :

1) This post has a buttload of variations. That is what happens when you have no internet and want to icon. You make use of already made icons and try to jazz them up like crazy.
2 ) There is also a lot of black and white in this post. Is it cause I have b&w mentality? That is besides the point. I just figured out a lovely way to get black done in PSP X and I went ahead and had a ball with it. At least in my perspective, it was lovely when I was making them.
