20 multifandom icons for 20muses round 9  


Fandoms:
Atonement (2007) [4]
Dorian Gray (2009) [4]
The Fall (2006) [4]
Moonrise Kingdom (2012) [4]
Sherlock [4]


Omg WHY did I try to do two challenges in one month?? This was INSANE, but I gotta say the challenge post at [livejournal.com profile] 20muses really spoke to me! The inspiration was classic literature and the technical and interpretative themes in the post gave me the spark to try to make some more muted, grungy icons. I used hard mode. I also tried to match the palettes cause they were all super pretty. I loved each of the literary inspirations, so I made 4 icons per book and used the same fandom for each mini set. Having just rewatched some of my favorite movies for my previous set, I wanted to use the most fitting ones for these. Also randomly used Sherlock for Frankenstein cause why not :)

Everyone's sets for this round have been freaking impressive so I don't know if my last minute entry can add anything to that, but I hope you find something to like! I'm super behind on my commenting and that's because of how busy this damn set kept me for these past couple of weeks but I'll make sure to fully appreciate everyone's hard work for this challenge. I'm just extra happy that the comm is back.

I'm soooo glad you made it, was wondering if you'd enter and yay, you did :D
(Though now I don't feel as good about my set as I did earlier, but that was to be expected ;))

Like naginis said, they're all so good! My personal preference goes to the Moonrise Kingdom and Sherlock rows, plus 10, 13, 14, 17 and 19, but they're all amazing. <3

Thanks so much for the lovely comment!! Those are pretty much my own faves too. I really wanted to make more for the Moonrise Kingdom/Alice set but it's very hard for me to resist a neat even icon theme division :)

LOL this is so funny to me cause I literally thought while coding this post that I shouldn't have looked at yours before posting mine. I mean all the sets have been great so it's not like the bar was low (is it ever anywhere? I feel like everyone is just SO GOOD), but yours is just incredible in every way and I can't wait to get to it in my commenting round. Which admittedly might take a while cause there's monthlyinspo too... again, why did I think it was a good idea to do both?? Please let both of these comms have bad challenges for next month so I can just focus on our battle entirely!

Haha, I very nearly posted mine in neat rows of 4 like you did but they didn't look as good arranged that way. Your mini sets are so much more cohesive though, so they look amazing!

Aaaaah I'm so glad you like my set, thank you! Don't worry about leaving me a comment, this bit of feedback is more than enough :) I agree that everyone is making awesome stuff atm, I found myself saving so many icons for my last praise post.

I had the exact same thought a couple of days ago! :P If the 20 muses theme is as good as this one, I'll go for it, but I already have a lot of March icons to post, so that could make a nice April icon dump while I focus on our battle. I'm excited but nervous, lol.
