RuPaul's Drag Race for 10in30 + others  



Fandoms:
RuPaul's Drag Race [27x various seasons]
Project Runway [4xS2, 1xS15]
Chronicles of Narnia [5]


Ok so here's my entry for round 9: Tropes at [livejournal.com profile] 10in30. I haven't had much iconing mojo lately, mostly cause I haven't been able to get into any new fandoms... but then I realized I can maybe icon a bit outside the box and take reality shows into consideration, since I also watch some of them, with RuPaul's Drag Race being my latest great discovery. I just finished binge watching all the seasons, so this post contains a mix of different seasons rather than just focusing on the current one. Embarrassing confession time: I totally started watching just for Santino. He's cute and adorable and I loved him a LOT on his Project Runway season, which I just recently rewatched (still the best PR season by far!), so I thought, why not see what he's been up to. But very soon I fell in love with literally everything about RPDR. It's so much fun! I can't even pick a favorite season, they've almost all been super strong, and it's also perfect for my iconing needs, with all the fun colorful wigs and clothes and stuff.

I do hope to make a return to iconing normal fictional fandoms at some point! I just have to find that show or movie to get excited about.

Anyway enough rambling, here's the set... Hover for trope!

It's your BIRTHDAY! Happy happy day, bb!

Your icons are so so gorgeous. Your icons are what I aspire to be close to making some day, like seriously. I'm too timid to use such bold colors but you do it and you're just awesome at it. ♥

Also Happy birthday! I hope all your dreams will come true! :)

Amazing colors as always! I think 3 is my favorite, the color combo and everything is just gorgeous!
neonspider: dorian's world of fun[personal profile] neonspider on September 29th, 2016 08:44 pm (UTC)
Aw, thank you so much! 3 was one of those ideas that just wouldn't stay out of my head so I had to execute it no matter how silly it would be... Glad you like it :D

You're back with a vengeance! As always, the bright colors and fun compositions really stand out in this post. I especially love 2-5, 7 and 9 for your set. 11 is also an icon that I saw during the LIMS challenge and I just had to save it to my inspiration folder. The coloring, lighting and painted strokes go so fantastically well together.

Also, happy belated birthday! I hope it was an amazing one.

Thanks so much for the lovely comment! ♥ I feel like I haven't seen you in a while, I hope you're still making icons!
I'm particularly happy that you like 11 - I had a lot of screen trouble during that round so I wasn't having that much fun, and all of those icons look kinda blah to me now (cause my screen looks different). I'm very glad to hear it looks nice to you though! :>

I've been really, really rusty/uninspired/busy. I recently entered something for [livejournal.com profile] the7days but that's about it. Hopefully I'll see you around more! I don't follow this show but I'll take anything that gets you inspired and iconning.

It's gorgeous. Your screen may have been wonky, but you did a great job.

The 10in30 set is amazing! I love the vibrant colors so much. The background of 3 looks great and I really like the composition of 1. The coloring and lighting of 17 is awesome, too :D
neonspider: afsdfsdfgsdfgb♥[personal profile] neonspider on October 2nd, 2016 08:52 am (UTC)
Thanks so much!! :) I'm very happy you like the 10in30 set. I don't know if it will help me get back into iconing or not, this might have been just a one time thing, but it was nice to get that inspiration back for a while at least!
tinny: librarians_flynn lights you came back al[personal profile] tinny on October 2nd, 2016 09:41 am (UTC)
It's nice to see you make icons. I don't know, I couldn't get away from it if I wanted to. My muse needs it.

You're right, the colorful source material really suits your style!

From the 10in30 set, I especially love #05 (very inventive text choice!), #04 - so hard to tell where the subject stops and the background starts, and #03 and #06.

I love the retro look in #15, the grunge in #21, the coloring in #24, everything about #27, and the slight grunge and beautiful coloring in #37.

Great job!

THIS ENTIRE POST HAS ME LIVING The colours & everything are so incredibly lovely. The 10in30 set had me rolling, especially Laganja. I'm snagging the one of Kimchi and a few of Katya.

Happy belated birthday!!
