I am having trouble getting anything done online tonight other than scrolling through these haha. I am so proud of us and so happy you suggested it! It was definitely worth doing and even though you have been so kind and thanked me multiple times for the extensive schedule I really want to thank you for sticking with this when you could have so easily ad understandably been overwhelmed by everything else going on in life. Basically: yay we both made it ( ... )

I am also immensely jealous of 26 because I tried so hard with that cap
Haha, yes, me too. The only way to make it work for me was to make it negative space. It looks simple, but I actually spent quite some time on it.

Basically all your compliments for the sepia tones of the Faramir icon are because I couldn't make the blues work the way I wanted them too. When all else fails, I tend to go black-and-white, or sepia. ;)

Thank you, thank you for the compliments. I've been very unsure about my icons lately, which is also part of why this took so long, so it means a lot. ♥

I had to go to b&w for the Faramir icon because I just wasn't confident with the blue tones. Even if the sepia was a last resort I still really love it!

I hope you feel a bit more comfortable/confident with the icon making process now. These are all of a really high quality and the evidence of experimentation and development in your style is always very inspiring to me. ♥

THE TEXT IN 19 IS SO PRETTY and I love the coloring both of you came up with for the icons. ♥
9 is seriously gorgeous, it almost reminds me of spud66cats stuff. :)

Thank you! I sought for the right text for ages. In the end, I ended up quoting Vincent van Gogh. /coolstory

That's an enormous compliment, thanks! :)

Don't say that! It would be awful if you stopped icon making on account of anyone, for real! But thank you so much for the compliment. :)

Thank you! Seeing I spent forever on my text, that means a lot. And to be honest, I'm very proud of the way #2 turned out. :)
