[81+12] The Shannara Chronicles, various Jane Austen, etc

Apr 10, 2016 22:23

Okay. Okay, you guys. This is kind of a massive post. I'm a little floored at the number of icons, especially since I spent most of March in a veritable icon funk, causing me to not finish a bunch of challenges I wanted to participate in. But there is that aforementioned Jane Austen battle and I got a little cap-happy with The Shannara chronicles ( Read more... )

Yay, Shannara Chronicles! It's such a guilty pleasure show. My dad got me sucked into it and so many lines/acting choices/predictable storylines made me groan, but it's so pretty and also kinda interesting. Great muted coloring in 3, vibrant coloring in 5 and 14, and use of negative space in 17 and 18. I love the texture use and vibrant colors in 25, as well as the negative space and texture use in 30, 32 and 33 ( ... )

Thank you so much! Super glad to hear your thoughts on which ones worked well :D I am super happy at how 80 turned out as well, I had a lot of problems with my previous icon for that theme in the battle ("costume porn") so when I watched that scene I just knew I had to change it and use it.

And yes to all the Shannara comments! It's so pretty and overall the storyline was intriguing, but so much acting awkwardness! I saw this review of the series and how the three younger leads sometimes "stole the show" and I'm just here shaking my head lol. Still, looking forward to seeing season 2 if they do make it, and in the meantime I might actually pick up The Elfstones of Shannara or whichever book should come first in that world.

Thank you! :) It was great fun to do! And yes, P&P&Z was a very refreshing movie imo. Just don't expect it to be like the book haha they do deviate and make use of a few liberties, but it's Austen and it's zombies. What's not to love? :D

These are super pretty. Your 10in30 set is great, and I esp. like #29, #30, and #33.

Heneral Luna...that's a movie that I'm surprised to see iconized :)

Haha! Yeah I wanted to have an icon to use myself, though I know the LJ icon community is kind of like...dead really, to have much impact or interest in Heneral Luna icons. But still, why not, right? :)
