*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

Noranti's set.. I kind of love that they all look like they were cut out of a magazine. :) Resourceful is fun! love the texture use in it and the cropping is well done.
Pilot's set is interesting... love the text icon and I really like the sharp contrast of Peaceful. Gorgeous work there...
I also love the black and whit contrast of Dark Past. That's one thing I suck at mostly is B&W..it's hard to get such gorgeous contrasts with it for me. :/
Also, really love the battle icons! I thought about joining iconquest, but I have so many other things I'm doing. LOL
You do for text what I do for blending.. that's another of my weaknesses.. LOL :)
Over all fantastic job!

Lol, I don't often do b&w for the same reason you mention! I mean I combine bw with color all the time, but leaving it JUST black and white is really difficult for me cause the contrast has to be spot on, and everything else too, and that's intimidating really! D: But lately I've been trying some bw stuff, inspired by this awesome guide by
And text! I have such a rocky relationship with it, sometimes (like in my previous set) I want to use it but can't come up with anything and everything I try looks bad D: but then sometimes it just happens on its own and I have so much fun with it, idek! There are tons of fantastic text guides around, but then again for me the best way has been to just stare at everyone elses gorgeous text icons (some of my text idols:

I've been playing with a little more text, and fonts.. but I find text easier to use on wallpapers. I like my room. LOL But lately it's also a vision thing. I had a lot of issues doing those icons this time because they were so small. I literally had to take my glasses off and sit an inch from the screen. :/ I'm sure it looked lovely. LOL.
Maybe once I have a job and have somewhat of a stable free time, I can look into it. I do think it's very interesting. It struck me as a sort of landcomm for icons without really being a landcomm. I wish there were more out there for wallpaper and blend artists.. *grumble* LOL
