January icon dump: 44 multifandom icons




Fandoms:
LOST [15]
Doctor Who [13]
Game of Thrones [2]
Supernatural [2]
Once Upon a Time [2]
The Hunger Games [2]
Suits [2]
Carmilla [2]
Teen Wolf, Prometheus, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Pushing Daisies [1 each]

I've been super busy lately. It's getting a bit less hectic in a month or two though, so maybe I'll make more icons then. But for now, this is all I've made this year, which might be a good thing because hey a reasonably sized icon dump from me for once!

I have a new screen btw so if you notice a shift to some direction in my coloring, it might be a screen thing. This one really amps up the yellows while my previous screen made everything look red. So now the skin in many of my older icons looks yellow :s there's also something weird going on with brightness and saturation cause everything looks SUPER bright and saturated on my file explorer for example, but in photoshop or after uploading somewhere they look much more muted. I have no idea which screen is closer to whatever everyone else is using so that is a little worrying but ehh, can't really do anything about it.

Icons 1-14 are remakes for the [livejournal.com profile] bestof_icons 2014 remake activity! Click for the original icon. Unlike last year, this year I'm actually happy with most of the remakes.
15-24 were for a super difficult [livejournal.com profile] mmcbattle activity, where my team [livejournal.com profile] pixelheroes had to icon things that would start with each of the letters in our usernames, AND on top of that we had to draw inspiration from the amazing makers of another multimaker community, [livejournal.com profile] magicmachine. This is why most of this set doesn't really resemble my usual style at all, and is not something I'll continue with stylewise, but it was super fun to just try these things :)
Then , the rest of this icon dump is stuff I've made for [livejournal.com profile] watchnicon (continuing with my Lost rewatch as well as getting back to my DW rewatch!), plus two random Carmilla icons made for [livejournal.com profile] iconsomething.

most of the icons 15-24 were made in 2014 so they are not eligible for bestof_icons 2015 activities!
The rest of this post was made in 2015 though :>

AH-MA-ZING! Seriously dude. These icons are so beautiful!

I love the composition of 1. Everything about it is gorgeous, from the colours to the perfect, perfect blend to the amazing text work. HOW DO YOU ACHIEVE THIS? Seriously. It's a stunning piece of art! And then let's talk about 7 because I've been awful in not replying to the original comment, but just, this is so freaking amazing. With the perfect colour combinations just subtly existing all together so perfectly? I really love how everything just seems to overlap in the right places, it's such a unique icon. And then we have 10, which just, wow. I mean, you do vibrant so perfectly, but then you do muted like this and it kills me. I love the softer tones, and the gorgeous contrast and gritty texture work. Seriously FAB.

Guh, and your rewatch icons are incredible. I'm particularly taken with 41, the composition there is all kinds of magical, and I absolutely adore the way you've played with colour, contrasting Rose from the boys! It's such a gorgeous icon. And 42 is seriously so incredible, the crop is freaking flawless (I mean seriously), but the texture work adds another layer of perfection, along with the absolutely beautiful text, which just draws everything together. Its so, so very stunning.

Beautiful work ♥
