120 icons for theiconquest!  
OMG ICON OVERLOAD. I was only supposed to complete the challenge once but something got a bit out of hand :o so these are all for the first main quest at [livejournal.com profile] theiconquest. The theme was 'adventure' and I went with those shows I think fit the theme best from the ones I watch, and used the inspiration post a lot for ideas. I hope it's ok that I've already posted a handful of these as examples here and there, namely my complexity guide and a meme at [livejournal.com profile] icon_talk, I totally forgot I hadn't posted them 'officially' yet. Nevertheless they were all definitely made for this challenge!

I DON'T KNOW WHY I HAVE AN OBSESSION ON MAKING MY CLASS SCORES AS EVEN AS POSSIBLE BUT IT'S FUN CAUSE IT'S AN EXCUSE TO MAKE EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNTS OF TEXT AND COMPLEX ICONS COMPARED TO MY USUAL SETS :D the class to which an icon belongs to is the column title.




Fandoms:

Doctor Who 76
Survivor 24
Buffy 4
Game of Thrones 4
Harry Potter 4
Sucker Punch 4

That's all for now! I'm sorry about the hugeness of this post, I just didn't want to make a billion smaller posts in one week or something.

Needless to say, since this is the biggest post I've made this far, I'd really really love any and all comments even more than ever :)

Hi,

So, uh, this is kinda a new thing for me to do since I never, ever want to impose on other makers but, if possible, would you be able to do a tutorial for 9 and/or 18? Feel free to say no because I understand that you're busy with college and stuff but I was just looking over this post again and these icons are seriously so, so gorgeous!

I really don't want to inconvenience you though so I'm being presumptuous I fully apologise! I'd just really love to see tutorials for those icons. Or PSDs. Whatever suits you more :)

Oh, that wouldn't be much inconvenience at all, since these are so new that I'm pretty sure I have all the psd's and remember why I did what I did. Just to make sure, do you mean #9 and #18 of the whole post and thus the first attempt? (If so this is even easier because neither has very many layers so a tutorial shouldn't take much time). I'll see what I can do and never ever hesitate to ask stuff like this, not only is it really flattering but it's also always wonderful to (try to) help!

(Also the size of this icon post suggests I clearly do have some free time on my hands :D)

Oh, awesome!

Yeah I mean of the whole post, from attempt one. Thanks a mill, you've totally made my day :D
neonspider: d/m you only hear me[personal profile] neonspider on October 3rd, 2012 08:08 pm (UTC)
Great! I'll start writing asap - I know I still have a couple of tuts to make for the ask the maker thing but I think I can do these two first cause they really are so short. I just checked and 18 has only 6 layers. If it's ok, I'll try to get these done by the end of the week :)
[identity profile] tiptoetwirl.livejournal.com on October 3rd, 2012 09:24 pm (UTC)
Thank you so much! How did I miss you on Ask the maker?

Anyway, thanks again and I really look forward to those tuts!!

Yay, done already :D Hope you'll get something out of them!

Hee, I was a bit clever with Ask the Maker - I saw it the first day it was posted, but waited a few days so I wouldn't be on the first page. I wanted questions, but not a thousand of them like most of the first-pagers usually would get, and my theory is that a lot of the askers on the first few days just ask things even if they're not really interested, just to give a bit attention to everyone. I knew I didn't have time for things like that, only for a few questions that hopefully would really interest the asker, so I wanted to participate a bit late when things had calmed down a bit :)
