This set is so great, I don't know where to begin!

The way you work with multiple colors & images is absolutely amazing! So many great compositions in this set! Love the color combo and the unnatural coloring in 1. The coloring and composition in 4 is absolutely stunning, I love red icons :D Both Sawyer icons are great, love the vibrancy in 10 and the grungy look and text in 13. 11 is probably my favourite, great color combo and I love the poster-like look and it's Watson. The way you incorporated the color explosion in 12 is so cool. The whole row 16-20 is amazing, teach my how to do blocking master! From the others I really like 23 & 25.

Amazing job! ♥

Thank you so much for the lovely comment! ♥ There's no method to my blocking tbh, I wish I had some teachable info but I kinda just shuffle blocks around and see what works... it's super random and frustrating and all the blocking icons here took forever so I might have to make fewer of them for the next set, but I'm super happy to hear you liked them in this set!! :)

The colors and compositions of the somein30 set are stunning! I love all the blocking. I think my favorite is the Sherlock icon. It looks kinda different with the bright yellow and green and I adore the skyline at the bottom. I also love the muted Supernatural icon. There is something really "old-school picspam" about it :D

Aww thanks so much! You know me, I love old school icons so that is a huge compliment. I've been going through a lot of old posts to gather potential icons to use in future challenge posts and it's so interesting to track the development of trends. I never realized this before but I swear there was a time when blocking was more common than removed backgrounds. And the blocking icons (well many of them anyway) were so amazing, I wish I was that good, but I'm flattered you see some of that in 9 :D

Stunning compositions and coloring! I love the duochrome colors in 1, the composition in 2 (also didn't know subjects from varying distances can be interpreted in this way!), love the frame work and text work in 3, 4 is stunning! I love how you incoporated the fake background and stock in 4, the blending and the monochrome is great in 5, I love the darkness of Buffy, the coloring and composition in 6 (it's stunning!), great frame work and blocking in 7 - 10, I love the composition, coloring and use of stock in 11, I find supernatural hard to make the screencap so vibrant, but it's stunning in 12, and the composition work in 13 - 20 is amazing! I also am in love with 22! (Amazing set!)

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback, I'm happy you liked that many icons! :) Yeah SPN is hard to icon and wouldn't have been my first choice for a theme like "color explosion" but I randomized my subjects too, just to make this extra hard, and got stuck with SPN but hey, I like a challenge :D

Aww thanks so much :) I wish I had more time to make crazier icons, they take so much time, and much of that time feels wasted since I go back and redo things so many times cause nothing works on the first try! But I'm glad that paid off in some of these, thanks so much <3
