round ends: 10:00pm 22nd December(UTC)

--- Please read our general rules
--- Remember entries must have minimum a value of 12 [icons are worth 1, wallpapers worth 4]

Choose ONE of the following challenge options. All graphics in your post must fit within that challenge. Furthermore, you must use only ONE fandom for your graphics, unless it is otherwise stated within the rules of the specific challenge. With that in mind, we do encourage multiple entries per person!

Regular Challenges:

#1 - Extreme Crop: Your icon must feature an "extreme" crop. Close crop, off the cuff crop, extreme negative space and so on.

#2 - The Legolas: Take inspiration from the influx of archers in the media! Your icons must feature archers. They don't need to have the bow in every single icon, but must feature it in at least four.[MULTI-FANDOM]

#3 - The Sidekick: A reliable, steadfast sign, your icons should feature the sidekicks that often accompany their out-of-the-ordinary bosses.

#3 - Can't Take the Sky from Me: Give us twelve icons that take place in the outdoors, as this sign loves the sky above their heads. Think lush greens and deep browns, or scenes that take place outside.

Herculan Labour Challenges (extra tricky!):

#4 - Rude Words: As archers can commonly be known for their rude natures your icons must feature rude words. This is a text challenge and all icons must both include text and a rude word.[MULTI-FANDOM]

#5 - In the Scope: Twelve icons that encompass the subject of choice. With the blunt, to the point nature of archers think icons that jump straight to the point and explain the purpose of the character at hand. [MULTI-FANDOM]

In response to the anons talking about the fact that a-mused doesn't do a round up post or an end of the month post, we've decided to begin one!

How would everyone like to see that done? We can either go through and pick out one icon from each post, and post a round-up post like that, or people could maybe submit one of their icons to a static post? That or we can do a voting segment, where people vote for their favorite icons from each maker's set.

Suggestions here!
