Kate Beaton rocks

[iconsbycurtana]

What up - it would appear that I now have 400 people who've friended this journal. 400. That is totally insane! I mean, it was only in June that I had my celebratory 300 post :o Don't worry, this post will probably ensure that some people unfriend me :)

These are some icons made from the comics of the most awesome beatonna, Kate Beaton. She makes comics about history and being Canadian and growing up in Cape Breton and working in the Alberta oil sands and the Pope and PONIES, and she is a funny, funny lady. So if you aren't reading her comics, you should be. My icons can't really do them justice, but nevertheless I wanted to make an attempt at capturing some small degree of her awesomeness in icon form. I'll certainly do more of these, including some of PONY, but I figured I'd stick up what I've got done so far. Enjoy! Please comment if you take any, and credit Kate Beaton for the art. You can credit me for the icon if you want, but I don't require it, since basically all I've done is crop and animate a bit :)

ETA: Second set of Kate Beaton icons here!
