OH MY GOSH. I have been dying for this to go up because I am so excited for everyone to get gifts! \o/ And what a great turnout! So many flawless icons! From so many flawless people! Like...I want to steal other people's requests???? Because there are so many pretty things?? I want to pick out about a millions favorites here, but I think that would take up too much space!! But everyone did an outstanding job, and I am sure everyone is going to be super pleased with their gifts like I am! :D
( ... )
aw, thanks, I have to say I was extra nervous having to make a gift for you. Which is why i made a super simple icon this time, cause I figured I'd be less likely to make it completely terrible :p But yeah, picking a subject was definitely easy! So glad you like it ♥
SO MANY GORGEOUS AND STUNNING ICONS HERE!!! Everyone did a BRILLIANT job here!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for mine, they are all gorgeous! applepips16, you must be psychic or something because I stumbled across that picture a few days ago and it's become one of my favorite pictures of him LOL and what you did with it is absolutely gorgeous. gallicka, that coloring and cropping is amazing, I love it and that's one of my favorite scenes from s2! marishna, I also love the picture you picked and I love the how vivd you made the coloring on his suit and his hair. It's so pretty! nightbulbs, the Rumple icon is gorgeous and it makes me laugh! His hair is always so fabulous looking. :P raiiindust, the coloring on this icon is amazing. The natural coloring and the shadows/lighting just work so well together!! Thank you again and amazing work, everyone!
I kept refreshing my activity feed over and over today and I couldn't remember why I was excited unTIL NOW LOOK AT HOW GORGEOUS EVERYTHING IS I'M SO AMAZED EVERYTHING IS SO PRETTY EVERYONE DID A FANTASTIC JOB I keep scrolling through and going I love that, and that... and that everything is just superb
This was also such a great pick me up, too! I love my icons so so much I keep squealing over each and every one of them! ♥ alisea_dream you somehow managed to find my weak point??? I love the composition and blocking in the icon (and the subject matter because lbh I'm still crying over the ending) bella_farfalla I love the colors on this icon!! I love the blue and the crop is fantastic too! I now have more Olive icons to add to my never-ending collection ^^ john_scorpy my breath stopped when I saw this icon (though my heart was doing weird things thanks to the first two tbh) I love the crop and the negative space and those colors??? teach me your secrets please omg it's beautiful julie_izumi I squealed like a school girl (which I technically am) when I saw your icon! I love it so

There are so many pretty icons here! I went through and saved a bunch, not just from my own gifts, but from others as well. This "battle" of sorts got me and my rusty PS skills back in action. I'm so grateful for that.
Anywho, onto mine! bella_farfalla, I love that you made a Jefferson/Emma icon! I miss seeing Jefferson, and those two had great chemistry together (well obviously, hur hur). The colors are so light and vibrant, and I like that off-kilter crop as well. deternot, I love that you made me a Selfie icon! The softness, negative space and muted pastel coloring look so great. Also, Selfie icons are always welcome in my opinion. ♥ icequeen3101, well you just hit "interest icon" right on the nose. Because Joey is my favorite person ever. EVER. I like that contrast of red and black. Also, that's my favorite color combo, it's like you're a psychic. john_scorpy, you made me a Sun icon! Ahhh! I adore everything about her. Probably in my top three favorite TV characters of all time. I like the dramatic contrast and how the darkness almost casts a sort of silhouette against that

Ofc I had to make a Sun icon, and I was sooo glad to get someone who likes Lost too as a gift recipient :D I really struggled with that icon tbh and made a ton of half-finished versions. This more muted and natural version was the other one I finished and almost picked instead, before I started worrying that it might look like I didn't actually do anything to the cap lol. But anyway, glad you liked the Sun appreciation, she's definitely a great character. I just rewatched Exposé yesterday and I love how she deals with Charlie&Sawyer when learning they were behind the fake attack on s2.
Ohh I actually really like this one! I think I may like it more, actually. The pastel coloring and soft lighting are just so lovely and really fitting for how delicate she looks in this screencap.
Exposé is such a great episode all around. I actually totally forgot about that part of the episode because there's just all the Nikki/Paulo stuff going on. I really have to buckle down and do a Lost rewatch one of these days.
raiindust, i love the colouring and its sharpened so perfectly ugh just great. marishna, that crop is so absolutely beautiful. john_scorpy, i love the crop and the vibrancy, the colouring on her hair is lovely. burntheflaws, this composition is so unique! i love the purple colouring and the dark negative space. applepips16, this crop is lovely and the soft colouring is gorgeous.
thank you everyone for your gifts and all those who participated! so many gorgeous entries! from other people's gifts i saved bella_farfalla's sara and gallicka's bucky and adritingsea's rose!
I AM SO PLEASED! I actually wanted to give you Simmons, but because I am behind on S2, I didn't know where to begin with her. I couldn't pass up that cap of May, she's kicking butt and everyone needs an icon of her being BAMF! Super glad you like it ♥
I do love her haircut this season! But yeah she doesn't really show up until a few episodes in. You should catch up!!!!!!! Midseason finale is tonight, so its about to be hiatus. Perfect time to catch up.
I'm glad you like those aspects of it! I kept going back and forth on how I felt about it, and had to resist the urge to remake it, so I hope that was the right decision in the end.
