OMG! I love your super-colored posts! And this one makes no exception!!!
I won't comment your compositions because there is nothing more that I can say: they're simply perfect!
My favourites are 2, 6, 7, 8, 10, all the Lost ones, 26, 33 and 36!

God these are so freaking delicious! Seriously, your coloring makes me just... *heart eyes everywhere* ♥♥♥ I snagged #1, 3, 14, 17-24, 27 & 29 <3 Now to figure out which ones to use first!!

Aww thank you so much! Super happy to hear you found that many save-worthy :D ♥

It's like an explosion in a texture and colour factory that somehow managed to land perfectly on each icon?!?! There are some seriously INCREDIBLE icons here, but my eyes are kind of overwhelmed with wow that I'm struggling to pick out favourites! I love the neon colours and painted hair on 7, the painted(?) bits on 13 that seem to imitate her motion, the composition of the Lost icons, the colour combination and vibrant in 26 and 27, and the composition of 29. Intrigued about the personal project, what's that all about?

Omg, thank you so much for the super lovely feedback! :D There's a lot going on in 13 but I think most of it was various brushes and textures that happened to have some parts that went well with the motion!

The personal project is this massive rewatch/icon project that I described in more detail in this comment. Basically it's a system where I need to rewatch and icon episodes featuring selected characters or ships. I'm trying to think of ways to make this system work within challenges, cause it's rarely compatible with anything, which makes me unfortunately seem a lot less active than I actually am.

I've had this tab open for the longest time but I keep forgetting to finish writing the comment. (Blame whatever little inspo I get on that, since I can't type on that other laptop.)

THE COLORS. THE GRUNGEY TEXTURES. THE FLAWLESS COMPOSITION.

It's all fantastic and I'm sure my comments get repetitive. I just love your vibrant colors. It's not easy to make them look "nice" and not just exaggerated. They almost look natural because of how you just potentiate the original colors (or what seems to be the original colors). This style (vibrant + grunge) works well and it does fit your style as well.

How do you icon, really? You make complex compositions look simple. You choose the right textures for everything and... gosh, these are just so good. I know what you mean about icon dumps (I only post icon dumps these days, it seems) but I wouldn't be able to tell this is one because of how cohesive they are. I bow down to you, as usual ♥
Your icons make me wanna rewatch Lost from the beginning. It's been so, so long and I loved that show.

Omg thank you so much for this amazing comment! *__* I do not think anyone has ever referred to my colors as "natural", so that one was a surprise! :D I'm suuuper happy you like them and think they're cohesive - that's so hard to do with icon dumps cause it requires a ton of self restraint to just not follow every inspiration, but to sort of restrict it to styles that will work within everything you're throwing into the next set. It's HARD so I'd definitely rather just make a full set for something. (Lowkey wondering if there would be any interest for a new community, now that monthlyinspo seems to be dead.)

LOST definitely still holds up super well and is to this day my favorite show. Rewatching it takes a ton of time, but if you're inspired to start a rewatch at some point, I'd definitely recommend the Down the Hatch podcast to go along with it - it's a LOST rewatch series that posts one episode per week, that's what got me into rewatching it, they're getting close to the end of S2 at the moment. (You might even be familiar with

I have to post all of my April and May icons (admittedly not a lot but a bigger dump than I'd like) and it won't look anywhere as good as yours, haha. I go with whatever I end up being inspired by... if that even happens.
I'd definitely be interested in a new community! I wish monthlyinspo was more regular. I hope it's not dead-dead :(((( Dreamwidth has a bunch of good ones but I seldom remember to check that flist. (I do have to post a set for a community there, now that I think about it.)

Ohhh I'm definitely familiar with RHAP. When I could watch Survivor, I listened to most of their podcasts. They're a joy. I bet Wigler is a great host because I loved his sense of humor and how knowledgeable he was. If I ever get the time, I'll binge it again because I remember it fondly. (I've probably forgotten a lot of the surprises but I bet knowing the ~~endgame makes some things click even better.) Thanks for the rec ♥
