Alright, so here's a last minute entry for
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif){kind=small}
monthlyinspo round 20. The theme was music, and I didn't want to use it the same way I did in this 10in30 entry where I used lyrics on everything, so I went with a very simple interpretation this time and chose to icon Pitch Perfect. It took a while for me to come up with anything fitting so only icons 1-12 are inspired by the theme.The 'look' I went for here was pretty much just pastelly colors, and simple compositions with lots of negative space. Personally it's not my favorite set and I'm not super proud of it cause I feel like I can make better icons, but then again there are so many different tastes and sometimes icons I hate end up being someones favorites so I figured why not post anyway and see if someone likes it. Sometimes a simple icon with nice colors can be enough, I'll probably do something a bit more creative next! Besides, I still have icons from 2018 to post and it's not enough for an icon dump (which I hate posting anyway), so this is the only way I'm gonna get them posted :p
Please let me know if you like some of these! I know I haven't been around much again, I'm honestly a bit overwhelmed cause there's so much going on and so many end of the year posts have been made and I want to check them all out now that I may have more time. The past Survivor season took a lot of dedication cause I wanted to visit the Reddit all the time and listen to all the podcasts, and also I got this giant puzzle as a Christmas present so I've been addicted to solving it :p But I'm almost done with it and it's offseason from Survivor, so now I'll try to make time for being a part of the icon world again and hope that it can maybe bring out some new inspiration.

And gosh, you reminded me I need to watch DvG esp after the good things I heard. I miss being in the US and watching live. I'm iffy on what EoE might turn out to be but my favorites and Joe are coming back ;_; /unrelated survivor comment

(Ugh I wish watching live was an option. Here in Finland we've just finished airing season 32, I repeat 32. Wtf.)
no subject
Seriously, I was going maybe they didn't bring Jay because they'd have two people from the same season but Kelley and Joe are too! There are so many surfer dude archetypes that are much better.
no subject
Spain doesn't air it at all, wtf. (And if I talk about it, people think about our trashy version, sigh)
Omg, so you have one of those too xD We have a celeb version that just got started last year. I guess it wasn't terrible, but making it a celeb version is really dumb cause our prize money is not that big, so there's no incentive to play hard to get it, especially for these people who benefit much more from maintaining a nice public image, so there wasn't a lot of gameplay involved.
OMG YES Jay would have been an awesome choice! Devon and Malcolm would be solid choices too. Just not Joe, he's like the blandest iteration of this archetype.
no subject
We also have a random people version but I think it's also like three months long and, despite it having some of the US Survivor basics (but in weird ways) like Redemption Island, it's different. I think the vote-off is voted by the public (noms might be the castaways)... but I've never bothered. It's live and nowhere the strategy and social play the Survivor I like has, haha.
omg, yes. Malcolm and Devin would've been great as well. Joe is just... ugh. Why do Jeff/the casuals love him? Malcolm is also loved and he went off in one of the most wtf vote-offs there've ever been.

I love the colors on the whole post, they are stunning.
Also I think there is no need to talk about your compositions, they are always so perfect in every icons!
My favs are 1 (so original!), 4 (the colors omg!), 5, 7, 12, 14, 17, 18 and 19 ♥
But everything is amazing, seriously!

The pastel, yet vibrant colors of the monthlyinspo set is amazing! And I love the negative space on them, too. The composition of 2, 11, and 15 is awesome :D

I love pastel, myself, and I think you've done a great job with a look that's not your normal go-to vibrance. The plain blocky coloring gives them a quietly serene look that goes extremely well with pastel.
I adore the composition in 9! 14 and 15 are simply amazing! I also like 16, 6, and 7.
From the dump icons, Daenerys really stands out. I love the purple-yellow combination. So beautiful.
I also love 23 with the frame sticking out of the flowers. I love the vibrant orange in 22, and the grungy look in 26.

Yeah challenging myself stylewise was all I did last year! This wasn't as big of a stretch as say the bw set, but it was still a struggle trying to keep them not neon, and simple without feeling like they're plain. It's funny how I adore simple and muted icons by other makers, just not my own. But I gotta keep changing it up cause there was a point when I realized that the more I use the same style the less impact it will have, so I gotta come up with new things to experiement with and I intend to continue. It's just super counterintuitive to always go for something that I know is not my strength when I know I could make better icons in my signature techniques, but well, it is what it is. Thanks so much again. ♥
