I can't believe the last 20in20 I completed was in June. Since then it has been all icon dumps. But this time, I have actually new stuff to post thanks to technique20in20!

I seem to have moved from the 'icon all the Sayid' phase to 'icon all the Ben'. (OH AND ABOUT ALL THE BOCKE - DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT, I'VE SHIPPED WORSE :P)

The category set was about using styles you've been known for. I'm a horrible judge of what my icons might be assiociated with, so I just went with what I guess could be some of my signature things? In this case - vibrant monochromes, bw+color, pseudo vintage, complexity, geometry, vibrant grunge, something along those lines. I kinda failed the challenge too considering it was about our  ~past styles and I still abuse the hell out of all these things but you'll have to excuse me cause I didn't really have a style before these elements :S

Anyway, hope you'll like something in this set, I must say I had so much fun with these - it's like all of a sudden iconing stopped being stressful and started being fun again, so yeah whether anyone enjoys these or not I'm just thrilled I got them done and can't wait to use this newly found enthusiasm to icon some more in the near future!! :>

Usually nobody can tell wtf is going on in my icons, so hover for fandom :D

p.s. I just remembered that I still had lots of tutorials to make for the Ask the Maker that happened many months ago, so clearly I can never estimate how much time the writing takes. I'm really sorry about this but I don't think I'll be able to write them in the near future either, so as compensation I'm willing to give out any PSDs anyone might want, just ask (this includes all of my posts obvs, not just this one)!

Amazing as usual! Just gonna dive right in with 'darkness,' which has such great texture use and muted colors. I love how Castiel manages to stand out from the background even though you made it so textured. 'Silhouette blending' is awesome, but I love the alt version even more. The lime green and neon pink is such a trademark combo from you, and I love the composition. It's a very creative use of the silhouette technique. What is the madness and beauty that is 'white decoration'?! Those white decorations are fantastic and add so much to the composition! The green and blue panels also look so great next to each other, and yesss, Sawyer. <3

Great coloring in CAT2, especially on her hair and shirt. The colors in AC3 are also really lovely and even though you can clearly tell who the two characters are, there's still something kind of wispy and antique about it, especially in the area near Jack. Not quite sure how to explain it but it looks a little foggy/faded over there, so this comes off looking as a really vibrant yet old photograph. AC5 makes me so happy because A) it has beautifully bright, vibrant colors and B) IT'S JIN. YOU ICONNED JIN. MORE PLEASE.

Oh wow, thank you so much for this wonderful comment! I'm just thrilled at all the unexpected love for the alt version of 'silhouette blending', and the fact that you like White decorations is awesome as well cause that's a style I don't even remember using before.

And yesss I iconned Jin :> tbh he was my least favorite character for a looooong time (weirdly enough the thing I couldn't get past was that he destroyed Sun's garden. It was just so cruel. I could always get the things he had to do because of Sun's father, but the garden thing, that was all on him and it was awful!), but by the very end of s4 I started to like him quite a lot, especially after he himself realized and admitted he had changed, so I think I like him now and might very well icon him in the future too. Seriously I need to make tons and tons of icons of LOST, there are so many awesome characters and scenes and I'm pretty much in love with them all!
