30 multifandom icons (monthlyinspo + others)

[neonspider]

Fandoms:
Doctor Who [8+1]
Dorian Gray [2]
Farscape [2]
Orphan Black [2]
Parks and Recreation [2]
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Carmilla, Elementary, The Flash, Kuroshitsuji, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, LOST, Merlin, Supernatural, Survivor (S33), Teen Wolf, Titanic [1 each]

So here's my set for monthlyinspo round 13! I MADE A 20IN20 SET, it's been a while!
Everyone's sets for this round have been aaaawesome and super cohesive but here I am all over the place with my color combos and basically everything. I happily mixed both color wheels, but I specifically wanted to work with colors and combinations I don't often use - so that's why the heavy focus on reds! And no, I'm not organizing these by color cause that just highlights that I used mostly red+green and red+cyan :p

I wanted to go to a very different direction from my last set. Those icons were bright, shiny, and fairly simple, so in this set I wanted to do gritty, text-heavy, contrasted, bold, 'in your face' icons. I also tried to use more close crops than usual but I got kinda sidetracked from that so there aren't as many as I had planned. Anyway, this set was a very interesting challenge and I had a lot of fun - hopefully someone is crazy enough to enjoy these, and if you do please let me know :D Hover for color details and fandoms. (I mean most of these are from one fandom... I've really fallen in love with DW again this year. Aside from Survivor, it's the only show that still inspires me.)

These icons are great! I really like the colors and their compositions but also the crops are fabulous

[sietepecados]

Amazing coloring! I love the composition on 17, also color and negative space on 21 and crop and light on 29 is so great!

[xafirah.livejournal.com]

Wow, I love the color combinations, especially purple/yellow and all red+ icons.
The use of text is amazing as always *_*
So good to see your icons! :D

[apologizeg]

LOVE everything with text and of course the compositions because they're made by you (duh) ♥♥

[word_never_said.livejournal.com]

Your use of text, compositions and gradient maps never cease to amaze me. The texture use of one is beautiful, so subtle but it adds so much. 2, 4, 6, 12, 18 & 20 your text is just, daaaamn. The entire composition of 12 is just amazing. It reminds me of a wanted poster that'd be in V for Vendetta or something. 17 just cracks me up! I love it, perfect use of color, text & subject! And 5, it's like an entire story. I am in awe of it. I'm saving at least half for inspiration.

And they all work so well together, which is just unreal! Also, 30=YES. ALL THE PARKS & REC.

What a fun set!

I like the "noise" effect/texture on the icons. Is that the right term? (Like setting a layer to HSV or RGB noise to get a grainy texture?)

My favorite is 20 (Kira with those words!)

Kudos!

I love the coloring! I love how it just jumps out at you. I really like 3, 5, 7, 10, 17 and 20. Really great work! :D

[tinny]

You're absolutely right, the lack of pink doesn't immediately scream jsfunction to me. It's different! (And I'm always impressed at people who can do something different!)

But of course the complex compositions immediately give away that you made them. :D

I really like the gritty look you went for this time, and the unusual colorings (especially 3, 11, 13, 14, and 16). My faves are the complex ones (5 and 10 most of all), I am just in complete awe of them, as usual.

I like the slightly arrythmic animation in 14, it keeps drawing the eye.

Great work!!

great icons :)

[twisted-slinky.livejournal.com]

These are beautiful, all of them, but I'm especially in love with that amazing Supernatural one and the Buffy one. :D

[emiels.livejournal.com]

Daaaammmn, your icons are always something else. I'm in love with all the colorings here, seriously.

[lady-kingsley.livejournal.com]

You are one of few masterminds that can create icons with vibrant colors that don't exist in RBG palette. Seriously, I have tried so many times to recreate icons with such colorings but everythime I failed... This post is indeed not so much in your typical shiny happy people coloring yet these grungy textures, and the vibrancy of this set is amazing. Can't wait for next set!

Know your boo! More Parks and Rec icons please please please!

Also hello! I haven't seen you/your icons in a while :)

[acciochocolate.livejournal.com]

Interesting colouring and textures! Btw, you're welcome to post a link to the DW icons at

I'm SO mad I missed this magnificent post!!!! Every single icon is a work of art and I know I've said it already but you are the master of compositions!!! LOOK AT THEM!!!! SO PRETTY!!!!! 5 and 10 in particular are so captivating, and I am in love with the colour scheme, just perfect ♥. Also, the text work on 2, 3 and 5 is exceptional and I adore the colouring on 1, 3, 7 and 9 very very much. Other favourites are 12, 13 and 18 (woah there!!! perfect blending/blocking!!!). Snagging some, thank you for sharing :)

(Apologies for the weirdest, most super late comment ever, I'm basically brainfried by work but I still wanted to comment...)

How am I only seeing these now, they are so amazing?! Vibrant grunge/grittiness is my favourite thing so obviously I think this set is wow! Idk, the colours are fantastic but at the same time the set has a dark vibe to it that I find really appealing. (Don't mind me, really)

The Doctor Who icons! I love the saturation, lighting and texture of 3, it all works so beautifully with the cap! 6 is another favourite with the crop and text (also this quote *sobs*). 4 is a lot of fun and looks rather punk to me (Idk?!) which suits Nine perfectly. And 5! How do you composition? It's so vintage and dreamlike and beautiful.

The close crops are great, I especially like the Sarah icon. But did you make a Grant Ward icon? And are you watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D? (Maybe you've made AoS icons before but I was too awol to notice :o)

Other favourites are 1, 2, 10, 12 and the amazing 17 and 18, both of which have brilliant compositions. ♥
