Boy, oh boy...has it been a long time time since I've posted icons or any graphics of any kind. Work has sucked every creative bone from my body, but it seems I've gotten my inspiration back with the start of the new season of Bones ( Read more... )

Thanks, I'm glad you like them. It was pretty easy to do and not a whole lot of steps. I've outlined the steps below.

1. Select your base, crop it and do any adjustments that you think it might need.

2. Dupliacate the base 2 times. Set the first to screen (you may have to adjust the screen lay a bit depending on the cap) and the second to softlight, then desaturate the softlight layer.

3. Make a new layer, set it to multiply, and fill it with EDDDA5.

4. Make a new layer, set it to exclusion, and fill it with 051746

5. Duplicate the base, bring it to the top, desaturate it, and set it to softlight.

Ta da!!!! You are done. You can add a border or any brushes at this point if you want.

You're welcome. I'd be interested in seeing how it works for you.

Whoa, thanks so much for the tip! I love this set, it's so hysterically expressive and candid. 6, 12, 25 and 14 are probably my favorites. Keep up the great work!

Thank you, glad you liked. I do tend to select caps with expressive faces, whether they are happy or sad, or just making silly faces.

I also just posted about 19 icons I've made for various challenges I have entered that I'm just getting around to posting in my journal.

Snagging 19 & 25 because they are adorable! :D

I love 25 myself. Glad you found some you liked enough to take. Have fun using them.

I really do like the crispness and the clarity of these. Nice work!

Thank you.

Snagged a couple of Davids- he's just so damn expressive, isn't he? Thanks so much, will credit, of course.

angelspike69 September 28 2008, 23:08:23 UTC

Oh yes, I totally agree. His face can say so much. One of the many reasons why I do a bunch of icons of him and his characters. Glad you found some you liked. Enjoy using them.

luvmax1 September 28 2008, 23:09:48 UTC

I will, thanks. I've been dying for some new Bones icons, and then, there they were.

I'm currently working on Ep. 4.03 (not sure how much I'll get done today, but I should have them posted this week as well as 4.04 and 4.05 during the week.
