Wow, where has the time gone? There have been a bunch of great challenges over the past few months, but the combination of lack of time and lack of my muse has really thrown me for a loop. It feels like I made these particular icons forever ago, and I've been meaning to post them but I keep forgetting. These include submissions for pokicons, theiconthrone, tvlims and a few ( Read more... )

Here's my entry for round two at 20muses, where we basically got our inspirations from playing a "board game" of sorts using random dice rolls. It's such a fun and unique challenge, and I knew I had to take part no matter what. But stupid me didn't set aside time to make icons until... this Tuesday, actually. This is the result of three days of furious ( Read more... )

Yikes, this entry is full of very few 2015 icons and long overdue. Free time and inspiration are two things currently evading me, but in the meantime I've still been milling around, appreciating all the gorgeous icons that continue to be made. It's been a crazy year and I haven't been on LJ nearly as much as I used to, but I miss making icons! I'm ( Read more... )

Finally, an entry full of new icons! This is for Seeing Double at inspired20in20, a type of challenge I've always wanted to try out. I have less alts than usual, probably because iconning the same cap twice gave my indecisive tendencies a chance to shine. I've been falling hard for pastel coloring these days, so there's a lot more of that going on in this entry ( Read more... )

I didn't want to start 2015 with a post full of 2014 icons, yet here we are. Headdesk. The icons in this mini-post are from the7days, pixelheroes, wonderous_stuff's Gift of Giving and iconsomething's GiftmasI'm feeling pretty 'meh' about this post because I feel like I rushed most of them to meet deadlines at various icon comms. That being said, I do like the ones I made for the gifting ( Read more... )

Another much-needed icon dump, full of icons made for the7days, iconbattling, s1icontest and probably one or two more I'm forgetting at the moment.

Last but certainly not least, I participated in icontalking's epic Lost battle, which was in celebration of the show's 10 year anniversary. Several icon makers got together and reached an overall consensus of our favorite 20 characters, then ( Read more... )

My submission for Round 30: Adventures in Wonderland over at 20inspirations. I missed the comm's Down the Rabbit Hole theme, so when this came along I was so happy! Freeing yourself up to play and go crazy with compositional elements you never would've dared to otherwise is a pretty great feeling.

[Ramblings about working with this round and my love note to the show.]I pushed myself with my first few icons, but they still felt a ( Read more... )

My first non-sitcom 20in20 submission! Granted, I've only done two other ones. This was for Round 34 at inspired20in20. The theme focused on four major elements of iconning: cropping, coloring, composition and text (the icons are arranged in that order). It brought me back to theiconquest, so I decided to do an even split; five for each technique, though I ended up ( Read more... )

This icon post is a compilation of all the theiconquest icons I never got around to completing/submitting/posting ( Read more... )

Finally, a new post... though one filled with old icons. My muse abandoned me for the past several months, but I'm starting to get a little inspired again, so I want to clear out some of the icons sitting in my computer for a fresh start. Included in this post are my most recently made icons (two months ago) from an incomplete Breaking Bad battle ( Read more... )
