38 icons (mostly Doctor Who)  
First actual icon post of 2013, containing a Rose Tyler set for [livejournal.com profile] character20n20 and the remake icons I made for the remake activity at [livejournal.com profile] bestof_icons.







Fandoms:

Doctor Who 21 (almost all of Rose)
Farscape 5 + 1 alt
Battlestar Galactica 3
Game of Thrones 2
Harry Potter 2
I Am Number Four, Star Trek (2009), Buffy, The Big Bang Theory 1 each

I'd love to hear your thoughts on any of these. I've kinda sucked at commenting this round at character20n20 but fear not, I still intend to go through everyone's sets even if it's a bit late :>




Remakes (click to see the original):

[1-5]
Farscape x5
[6-10]
Farscape, Battlestar Galactica x3, Star Trek
[11-15]
Game of Thrones x2, Harry potter x2, I Am Number Four
[16-18]
Buffy, The Big Bang Theory, Doctor Who




I'm mostly really happy with the remakes and think the majority of them are better than the originals, so yay I may have actually improved during 2012! \o/

This Rose set I'm not that happy with though :| I like most of the ones I made first, but then I ran out of time again despite not signing up for anything else this month (but then again I spent a lot of time with the nominating at bestof_icons and making that damn progress post and I may have gotten a bit sidetracked by the7days too, so not that surprising after all) soooo I kinda dislike a lot of these as well. But then again I've noticed that I'm a horrible judge of my own icons, so who knows :p

Also, this is yet another set where I can't choose between simple and complex and muted and vibrant so yeah who else is surprised.
I had two reasons to pick Rose: 1) she's FULL OF WIN and more importantly 2) she's a cutie and the perfect subject to color, srsly, more tv characters should wear candy colors like she does :D and yes I totally used a Farscape quote on one of them, lol.

Omg this comment is ridiculously awesome and makes me much more confident in that Rose set after all!! I still like the remakes better, but am reaaaallly happy you have so many favorites in the Rose icons and have such wonderful things to say about them :> (except I can't for the life of me fathom what you see in ac4, lol - it was the quickest and crappiest of these all imo :'D but well I'm of course really glad someone likes it too ♥)

Oh yes, I think you're totally right there - while I wouldn't want to restrict myself into just one set of things, I think my last three sets have had enough in common for me to actually call it something like a 'style' :) Glad you think so too! Still, there's no telling when I get bored again and go for something totally different, haha.

and YES I was so glad to get to remake those John/Scorpy ones, and I'm thrilled they found a home :>
