neonspiderwebs | 55 (mostly Farscape) icons

Fandoms

1-48: Farscape
49-53: Doctor Who
54: The Big Bang Theory
55: The Rocky Horror Picture Show

First of all, what I managed to scrape up at the last possible minute for the 24th round of

farscape_20in20... My claim was the three-parter Look at the Princess, one of my top favorites. It might not have the strongest plot (it's good alright, just not as dramatic as some of the later stories!), but it has SO MUCH SCORPY OMG. Also The Hug, which I didn't icon this time cause I've already iconned it to death but have two Bracas instead cause his parts are definitely highlights of the trilogy too :D

THEME SET: Noranti
Resourceful	Age	No Shame*	Secrets	Sleep

THEME SET: Pilot
Bound to Moya	Likes to Read	Multitasking	Peaceful	To see the stars

THEME SET: Stark
Ragged	Dark past	Mask**	In your face	Opposites

*In the 'No Shame' icon we had to icon a character's vice or negative trait, so witness Aeryn's mean sense of humour in this one :D She's awesome but daaamn I wouldn't like to be that poor guy!
**The prompt was to show only a part of the subject's face and I tried different crops etc but in the end didn't like any of my other results so I ended up just 'masking' the faces in lots of shadows :D

Also, some moar Farscape for the fantastic

theiconquest battle I had with

ghanimasun,

mark_pierre,

partitioning and

thyla87! See everyones results HERE :)

omg yayyyy new icons from you :D even if they are from a fandom i'm not a part of, i can always appreciate pretty icons C:

i really like resourceful! the composition is fantastic and i think the lines of the texture used go so well with how you outlined him. and then the text, just spot on composition. yay for no shame. you know how excited i get by vibrant icons and this one is so qt, with the bright colors and the boxing. likes to read reminds me of something

theotherayn would make and uehiug i love their text work and coloring so that's supposed to be a huge compliment *Q*

i love how you have these 2 distinctive styles that are so opposite - both muted, vintage coloring and also the vibrant magenta with blues and yellows. it's so refreshing to see it, because like most iconmakers have only 1 ~signature style and here you are with two badass ones :D

i really like the color combo of multitasking. purple is love and that dark yellow just fits so well with it. and i like the texture use on there, borders are an ultimate win. mask is so pretty wiugergnjekg look at that neg space *____* i've always wanted to make an icon with 2 close up faces and neg space in between but i've never managed to, but you have killed it!!! the coloring of in your face is breathtaking. such rich and diverse purples. it's like christmas for my eyes C: and i like how his surroundings are so dark and just everything in the icon is black, while the person just ~*pops*~ with that coloring. i really adore opposites as well, because i love boxing in icons and the orange + yellow + dark brown in the icon that you've brought out just stuns me.

16 is totally creative like whoaaa O: i also enjoy the unique color scheme you have gone with. 17 weughgej;esfusbg holy beautiful blocking batman *___* i love how parts of the icon are black and white, while others are light blue. my fav from this entire post however has to be 21. everything about that icon is so perfect i want to cry ;___; the texture use is mind blowing. like.... mind blowing. 24 is yet another composition genius. jfc i need a photoshop lesson in composition from you! next time you do (if you do) ask the maker i definitely would like to ask for a guide on how you go about picking the textures and how you position things for a complex composition and stuff :3 that is ofc if you do it haha

34 and 35 have awesome vintage feel to them. i wish i could pull off that look, because it's fantastic. aaaand then 37 iwesbfgisrgnre that is my other favourite from this entire post. gah it's just..h o w. how does that icon even exist i don't understand ???? the texture use is so perfect and vibrant and i love how she is in b&w omg such a beautiful contrast ;A;

man you have truly killed me (yet again) with this post ♥

asdasdfsdfdf how are you so awesome???!!!! I just don't deserve all this love from you ;__; ♥ ESPECIALLY for a fandom you don't even know, omg. I always feel so silly even pimping my FS posts anywhere cause I know that nobody has any interest in the show, even though everybody totally should give it a go cause it's aaaawesome and quirky and fun and has a billion good ships and characters but ok I'll shut up now :D

THANK YOU SO MUCH THOUGH for another awesome and fantastic comment! I feel much much better about this set than the previous one in general so I think my mojo is returning now and it's so awesome that you like so many things here too :>
Yep, likes to read was definitely inspired by

theotherayn :) I tried to make the coloring more like me with the vintage gradient map, but the text composition is definitely all stuff learned from one of her awesome tutorials.

Hehe, I think this is the second time you've said you'd ask something if I did Ask the Maker - is this perhaps some subtle hinting that I should be less of a chicken next time and give it a try? :D Maaaaybe.

You're giving too much credit to me re: 37 though, it doesn't actually have much texture use at all but the stripey background was already in the cap :D I just tweaked the coloring a bit. And since the chartacter is already kinda black and white sooo it wasn't very ingenious at all to make her completely so, haha. But i'm glad you enjoy the overall look so much :>

again, thank you so much for all the encouraging and awesome compliments!!! ♥
