Oh man, I miss having the time to make icons... it was a struggle to finish even these and most of them aren't even colored lol. But I can't complain cause at least I now finally have a job...

So anyway, these are for the 8th round of monthlyinspo. The theme was Bump in the Night, which I didn't take super literally because I'm not a horror guy at all so there are few actual monsters in my fandoms :p What I did instead was try to make somewhat creepiness-inspired icons and make horrory looking icons even for some randomized subjects that are basically the opposite of that. Some of these make more sense than others. I don't really have much to say about these cause honestly I've been kinda drained (starting at a new place can be so exhausting but I do hope I'll get used to it soon and get over the stress), and also there's a new Survivor season with ALL THE PODCASTS so that's what I do with my free time now, but hey I still managed to find at least some time for icons and experiment with a new (for me) style which was fun! :)

Oh, yeah, those are unusual. I love the animated Dorian Gray, it is very fitting. Ooh, 6 is awesome! I always loved the thingies on her head, she's great for horror-themed icons. Pinocchio-Scorpy is awesome, too!

I really like the minimalism in 8, and the paint blobs in 10. I love compositions with paint. I'm definitely going to snag that one for inspiration.

11 is great, I am not usually a fan of obscured faces, but once in a while an interpretation comes along that I like. This is very cool, and also fits the modern urban style of the show.

13 is awesome, his face almost springing from the depths. Great shading/contrast there!

Great job on the whole set!

Thanks so much! Yeah I love Natira's whole character design, so creepy!

I'm super glad you like 10. It doesn't make sense as a 'monster' icon unless you know the Locke / smoke monster connection in Lost, but yeah the paint is supposed to represent dark smoke :) I totally understand your opinion on obscured faces! I like that style, but only when I 'get' what the idea is, so sometimes I only start liking the icon after I read the maker's thoughts on it. But the one I made is fairly obvious, I think :D
