Ben 10 Icon Archive Post 1 - 100

Feb 20, 2009 20:51

I have made more than 100 Ben 10 icons. It's nutty and I can't keep track of them all. So I'm posting them up here. In some kind of order? I dunno. I'll probably just put the old ones on bottom and the new ones on top ( Read more... )

icons, ben 10, spazz

Awww, I never saw your widdle Big Chill baby one! Cute! <3

Oh, and those Lady Bennivere and Sir Kevalot ones reminded me that I was writing a little diddy for them...that turned kind of crappy and long, so I'll need to fix it...

Geez, either you people need to stop inspiring me or I need to just stop giving myself so many projects.

...I will never let go of "it goes to 11"...that's my baby icon, now...

It's not the best... I can see some major screw ups with the dots. D: But indeed, it is cute!

Writing a diddly for Bennivere and Kevalot? Oooh. Sounds like fuuun.

And I know how you feel. I have so many plans, but nothing to actually put into them! (Muffler Make Out: any specifics you'd like to see in it that will kick start my brain fart? Heehee... that rhymed...)

You inspired it! You better love it! XD

It's fun when Kevalot first meets Kevin; he's like, "What sorcery is this?!" Heheheh.

I know! *sighs* Which reminds me, I need to finish chapter 2 of the Ben 10/Animorphs thing...mreh. (Hmm...any specifics...? Let's see...at one point I would like to see Kevin desperately grab at something to drink after he realizes he's making out with his muffler...preferably one Ben was drinking...and still holding...heheheh. :3 Nothing that could help you start it, though, I don't think. ^^;)

I do...I love it so. ^///^

Oooh! Alternate universes/time travels?!?! YAY!!! Poor Ben's going to be in for a shock. Heeheee.

Dude. Thank you. You just saved my ass and gave me the perfect excuse for something to happen in this thing. I just have to tweak it now to go with the beginning I already have.

tonks17 February 21 2009, 19:20:43 UTC

Whoa, hey, I'm just keeping them somewhere I won't lose them. XD No problem for posting. Except for the html... that was kind of a bitch. But I got the icons to center-ize and space out so I'm gooooood.

AWESOMESAUCE GOES WELL WITH BRILLIANTBURGERS!

"Can I Call You back? We're eating mush."

THAT'S IT I'M YOINKING THAT ONE. What was that stuff anyway? AS A CULINARY STUDENT I AM VERY CONCERNED. D8

tonks17 February 21 2009, 19:23:00 UTC

Mush mush mushy mush mush.

Well, considering Ben's neo-hippie parents... I'm going to say it's some new agey tofu/oatmeal/potato mush salad. With a side of mushroom sauce. XD

the_tonberry February 21 2009, 20:13:41 UTC

Replace mushroom sauce with garlic-ginger hot sauce and I would totally eat that shit.

Say, what program do you use for your icon-making? Every time I try to make icons, they come out...Not good. Which is odd, since I'm usually pretty decent at normal photo manipulation. :

tonks17 February 22 2009, 00:44:25 UTC

Garlic-ginger hot sauce? Sounds yummy.

GIMP. I use GIMP. Because I am on a Mac and Photoshop is too expensive and doesn't give out free trials any more.

I snag screen shots from either Cartoon Network video (where I found Paradox) or from files I downloaded off of Ben-10.net or where ever it is I get these things from. Command+shift+4 baby. Then I open up my shots in GIMP and noodle with them until you get these things. I usually put text boxes on top of text boxes to get the shadow things behind the words.

For the backgrounds on the fan arts I have no real good technique. I use a separate layer for the background, use random brushes I got online, and then I select-cut large sections that were on top of the main picture and erase the little bits. Or I just erase stuff. I should really select-cut the main picture and just layer that on top of the backgrounds... but I don't have the patience for it. XD

GIMP is a little confusing for non-art-trained dummies like me though. "Filters? What is 'filters'?" XD

These are wonderful!

tonks17 February 22 2009, 00:45:33 UTC

Thanks! <3

Ah! Yay!! ^^ Some of these weren't in the links you've posted to me before~ :D This is really helpful! >w< I still gotta upload em' tho! :D I'm fallin behind! x3

tonks17 February 23 2009, 03:22:00 UTC

It's OK! I get so confused with all of these things that I forget which ones I've uploaded and haven't! I think some of the middle-ish icons weren't up on LJ of Photobucket before because I made them for the Round Robins and they didn't go anywhere but the archive journals. D:
