Icons for somein30

naginis — Thu, 09 Dec 2021 17:08:02 GMT

First icon post since March, oops.

This is my entry for somein30 round 13 - Icon crossing.
We had to make a cross of two randomly picked icons, and I chose extra hard mode, which means I used the screencap from one icon and the style from the other (or both). :D
There's a lot of pink, yellow and b&w in this post for some reason. I blame the randomly picked icons :P
See old icons at the bottom!

Fringe, Lost, Prison Break, Pretty Little Liars, The Walking Dead, Castle, Merlin, Skam, Game Of Thrones, Killing Eve, Raised By Wolves, Good Omens, Suicide Squad, Dexter, Hannibal

This is my entry for round 07 - All Things Random at somein30.
Thank you jsfunction for this fun challenge!

I can't make a cohesive set ever I think, but it was fun!

01: Random character: Astrid Farnsworth (Fringe) I haven't iconed Astrid in forever, so it was nice to get her from the randomizer!
02: Random icontest challenge: Challenge 227: Big Emotions @ elitesimplicity Of course I had to get my own challenge, haha! I feel like it can be hard to icon very emotional scenes, because lbr, people tend to not look their best when they're bawling their eyes out. I chose Cersei's walk of shame, because the whole scene is basically one big emotion.
03: Random praise: "The deep, dark, and vivid reds in this icon are simply stunning! And I love the slight variation in color in the background to give the negative space that extra little touch of depth." This ended up a bit brighter than intended, but I think it's got the basics with negative space and variations of red in the background.
04: Random screencap: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince ok, I'm sorry but this cap was hard because of Ron's expression, so I chose to focus on Ginny in the background in stead. :P
05: Random song: Lady Gaga - Applause Not the most creative interpretation, sorry!
06: Random tutorial: How to Channel Mixer by raiindust A tool I never use, so this was tricky. But I did the basic coloring using 2 channel mixer layers.
07: Random movie poster: Starfish (2019) I've wanted to icon this screencap because Anya has such an intense face, if that makes any sense? Added the text inspired by the poster.
08: Random quote: "Life is only precious because it ends, kid. Take it from a god. You mortals don't know how lucky you are." - Rick Riordan, The Son of Neptune. I chose Scully from this quote, as she might be immortal.
09: Random textures: accio-glow I love moon textures, and I icon at 300x300, so this was the only one large enough :P
10: Random font: Bazgroly Not really my type of font, so I cheated a little and used another font in addition to this one.
11: Random trope: Religion of Evil Midsommar was the first thing that came fo my mind when I saw this trope. I didn't like the movie, but it had really pretty visuals.
12: Random remake: this icon I chose to use the same screencap and make something different, as the original icon is pretty simple.
13: Random song title: Downtown. I immediately thought of the scene in Lost where this song plays when Juliet is standing in front of the mirror :P
14: Random inspiration icon: Icon by kayable I took inspiration in the colors from this icon, the purple for the background and the orange from his hair.
15: Random palette: Bob Ross APC This palette just screamed Raised By Wolves to me. If you haven't watched it yet, you really should! Even if you don't like the plot, the visuals are so beautiful.
16: Random art: Italian Landscape with Resting Travelers (Jan Dirksz Both, ~1638-1640) I love this picture and specifically how the light is coming from the back of the painting and the foreground is in shadows. I couldn't really find a screencap with this, so I found a texture that kind of fit and played around with the lighting.
17: Random album cover: Samy Masoud Meets Aldubb – One I took inspiration from the colors in this, and thought the vibe really fit The Queens Gambit. I also found a texture that fit really well with the look of the album cover.
18: Random book cover: The Arabian Nights by Anonymous, Richard Francis Burton (Translator), A.S. Byatt (Introduction) I took inspiration from the levels and vertical lines in the cover using blocking and adding a divider to the middle. Originally the icon has text too, but I ended up scrapping it.
19: Random word: handicap My newest obsession is Superstore, so I had to pick Garret for this!
20: Random screencap pool: Breaking Bad Kind of a difficult selection, but I liked the one with Jesse on the bed, especially the contrast in the cap.

Memory lane icon post

naginis — Sun, 13 Dec 2020 20:06:58 GMT

This is my entry for round 04: Memory Lane at somein30!
I chose extra hard mode, which means I'm showing the progression of my icons through both subjects and icon styles. :D
It was hard trying to recreate the old styles, trends and techniques and still making the icons look good, haha. Many of these are not what I would have made today if the theme was anything else. :P
But I tried recreating one style for each year from I started in 2007 to now.
There's an explanation for each icon at the end of the post and also an old icon to showcase my style at the time (I'm warning your eyes though) :)

Alts/rejects
16-20
21-22

01: I started making icons in 2007, and my subjects consisted of mostly Disney stars (I was 13 ok). For some reason I did a lot of close-crops with random brushes, words or of course the subjects name. example
02: In 2008, the coloring style that was popular, and a style I used on basically everything, was the very vibrant, heavy selective coloring technique. I tried to recreate it without going too far (as I did back then). My fandoms were still Disney stars. example
03: For 2009 I started making a lot of Disney icons, using mostly pastel colors if I remember correctly. Most of my icons from that time are lost to tinypic. :( example
04: So around 2010, dark, grungy, heavily contrasted icons was the game. My biggest fandoms were Fringe, Lost and Smallville. I had yet not taken the step to add much text, so most of my icons were textless (with the odd "insert subject name" here and there). example
05: 2011 was my era of blocking, light textures and bright colors! Fandoms were still Lost and Fringe with the occasional Disney and Merlin. example
06: In the beginning of 2012, muted, grainy icons were my game. My fandoms were Game Of Thrones, Once Upon A Time and still Lost and Fringe. example
07: 2013 was the year I really began using textures, experimental colorings and compositions. My main fandoms were Hannibal and Breaking Bad. example
08: My fandoms were all over the place in 2014, but I think Once Upon A Time seemed to be what I iconned most. Style-wise it was also a mix and match, but I feel like I tried more out-of-the-box compositions and also lot and lots of gradient maps! example
09: 2015 was filled with lots of text, brushes and gradient maps! My main fandoms were The Walking Dead and Sense8. example
10: In 2016 my main fandoms were Orphan Black, Stranger Things and Vikings. I started using the muted/vibrant coloring and continued to experiment more with text. There were also cases of hair-painting! example
11: 2017 wasn't that different from 2016 style-wise, but I did do more close crops with focus on little details. Riverdale, Stranger Things and Sense8 were my fandoms. example
12: 2018 Was a little more wacky style-wise. I tried more painting and vibrant colors. Westworld, A Series Of Unfortunate Events & iZombie was what I iconned the most. example
13: I didn't make very many icons in 2019, but the ones I made were either really gloomy or super bright and happy. The Umbrella Academy was what I liked the most. example
14: 2020 was not a good icon year for me, I haven't had the time or urge to make icons, but every now and then it feels nice to open PS again! I was late to the party, but I started watching X-Files this summer, so this and The Witcher would be my fandoms for this year.
15: I couldn't leave it at 14 icons, so number 15 is for the future! I chose The Witcher because I'm looking forward to season 2.
