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 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 mmcbattle activity, where my team 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, 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 watchnicon (continuing with my Lost rewatch as well as getting back to my DW rewatch!), plus two random Carmilla icons made for 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 :>

FINALLY HERE TO REPLY TO THIS AMAZING COMMENT! Sorry for taking so long when honestly I was sooo happy and flattered to read all these lovely things ;__;

OMG, YOU FINISHED LOST, AWESOME! ikr, I looove how many completely different characters there are! and the overall story was just super fascinating for me - I just wish I would have gotten into it way back when it was airing so I could have participated in the fandom when it was active.

i'm gonna go ahead and assume locke and ben are your favs? :D because you make the most creative and awesome icons with them

Thank youuu this means so much to me because HELL YEAH those two creepy old dudes are my favorites and, i just get these ideas for them, maybe cause it's easy for me to remember their scenes and know what I want to icon about them next. Also with this subject I usually end up with icons I like too, because when I'm iconing them I'm iconing 100% for myself, i know nobody else needs shippy Bocke icons lol but I know I do so I just try to make them something that I'd actually like to use, as in, full of everything and ridiculous colors and stuff :D which in turn is why it's super extra flattering that you like those. THANKYOUSOMUCH ♥

and, I'm super glad you think I've made some text progress, it was my main goal last year. I really don't remember how bad I was at it the last time you were around, but it feels like it was super long ago so i must have been pretty awful xD

As for the coloring in the last two, I'm pretty sure it was gradient maps as always... all the gradient maps on soft light and maybe on normal too on these icons to get the mutedness. I wish I knew how to selective color!
aw, I really hope you'll get your complexity inspiration back! But, if not, I'd love to see your simple icons as well cause your coloring alone is definitely enough to make them extra brilliant and eye-catching. ♥
