OMG, I made it in time after all, didn't think I would tbh. This is for

episodes20in20 and my claim was Teen Wolf 5.10 Status Asthmaticus. I used a randomizing system to pick my episode but I got a little unlucky here because once I rewatched the episode I noticed how goddamn DARK it was! D: but a claim is a claim and I didn't want to chicken out of it so... here's my attempt to make bright and colorful icons out of not the easiest material, lol. Most of these were made within two days and that's a crazy fast iconing speed for a sluggish maker like me! that's why this set is quite simple. this episode probably had some other characters too but I focused on my faves Malia, Scott, Liam and Lydia.
(The weapon in my weapon icon is barely visible but she is holding a gun and that's like the only weapon cap in the episode :p)

+ GIGANTIC END OF YEAR ICON DUMP

including this awesome Teen Wolf battle which was in August and I still hadn't posted them here... :p This post also contains countless icons I've made for challenges that I've failed to enter either because I couldn't get all the icons done, or because I didn't think they were good enough. it's quite shocking actually to see how many of those I made. I really hope next year I'm gonna be more successful at actually entering the things I start iconing for! This dump spans my entire year basically so there are some clusterfucks when I really struggled with iconing (and everything), and then some that were made with lots of iconing mojo. 2015 wasn't as prolific as some of my other icon years and I had longish breaks with no icons, but um it seems that I did make a bit more than I remembered. damn I should have made more icon dumps to avoid a post of this size :s well too late now, here they are anyway!

Well daaamn, gorgeous as usual. I feel like it's been a billion years since I've commented on your icon posts, so this is long overdue, and you've come up with some truly amazing stuff as usual.

I love the silhouetted look with the faint pink outline in 'far away.' Gorgeous composition and vibrant blue coloring in AC4. 29 is just beautiful to look at, between the colors and the grungy texture use. She looks illuminated by light and stars.

Orphan Black! I'm thrilled that you iconned OB because I love that show dearly. ♥ Lovely cropping and pastel coloring in 43. I like the dramatic contrast and blocking in 45. 47 is just insane and warped-looking and bloody, which is almost kind of perfect for Sarah and Helena's relationship. I love the gradient use in 50, especially how soft that greenish yellow on the left makes her hair look. It all blends in kind of seamlessly, and as a result the icon kind of looks like a painting. Beautiful muted pastel coloring in 53 and 54.

Speaking of shows very near and dear to my heart, ahhhh Parks and Recreation! This post just keeps getting better and better. And it's chock-full of Jean-Ralphio, so just an utterly superb win on all counts. I love the minimalist look and far crop in 62, the pastel coloring (and general adorable look) of 64, the wispy hair painting in 66, the crop and coloring in 69, and the fun and zany text work in 72. It's great to see those next to 73 and 74, two much "quieter" icons that really suit Ron. I especially love 74 with that center crop and the toned down muted coloring. You've really highlighted these characters and their personalities through the icon techniques.

I love how intensely vibrant 78 is, and her hair looks like a waterfall. The whole thing has a very painty look that I'm really digging. More fantastic vibrant coloring in 100 and 105. I don't know how you add so much color without going over-the-top. I'm jealous, I really am. I love the yellow/blue color scheme in 106. It's really cute how the background objects are all blue to match the color you made her cardigan. Fantastic composition in 114. The black and white really adds something to it as well. It has a classic vintage kind of look (it also reminds me of the blocking styles from earlier iconning years, which is pretty cool because I'm forever nostalgic about that time).

So yeah, this is a really stunning post and I can't wait to see more wonderful icons from you next year!

omg, you're still around! That's super fantastic to see. Have you made any icons recently? Anyway, I'm absolutely stunned that you chose THIS particular monster of a post to comment on, any of the others I've made lately would have been so much more normal-sized, so yeah I'm super pleased you actually wanted to look at and comment on that many icons :o

this comment though ;__; thank you so much for taking the time to write this, I read this like three times, all the lovely words mean so much coming from one of my forever faves ♥ also I was totally trying to go for an 'old school blocking' style in 114! I wasn't around yet when it was the trend, but I've seen some of those icons, like vetica's early work, everything by prettybutt, etc, and it's so goddamn inspiring, and I wish I had started iconing earlier so that I wouldn't have missed that wonderful period. Hee, I'm so glad someone likes 78 - it's one of my rejects for a challenge, I scrapped it because of the floating head syndrome (srsly what happened to her shoulders??), but then I looked at it again and decided that I liked the coloring so I'd post it here, floating head or not xD

Orphan Black and Parks&Rec were some of the best shows I watched this year! I ADORE Jean Ralphio he's like the most ridiculous over the top character ever and I love his singing and how dumb and terrible he is, so yeah there's a lot of JR in my p&r icons :D glad you liked those!

thanks again for the wonderful feedback!! ♥

I've only made two in the past few months. My iconmaking has been abysmal this year. Real life has just been all kinds of crazy. But seeing posts like these is so inspiring and makes me want to get back on the horse. That reminds me, I still need to get my last icon post out before the new year starts. It'll be the puniest thing ever, sigh.

Yeah, that early stuff was what motivated me to try and get better. A lot of those iconmakers were just so creative and had the craziest compositions. There are so many greats that I'd love to still have around, but I have a ton of their icons saved in my inspiration folder so at least I can always peruse through that. ^____^
