Breaking Hearts

aliensoflondon — Mon, 09 Sep 2013 17:35:41 GMT

I didn't have much inspiration for these but I wanted to try some effects and I think some of them worked pretty well. For my next post I'll be attempting to better my negative space icons. Anyway do post your opinions! All icons feature Torchwood.

Making Improvements

aliensoflondon — Fri, 06 Sep 2013 20:23:06 GMT

I think these are huge improvements over any of my other icons. I scrapped text and went for textures, colourings and crops, and I tried to make sure I was happy with every icon. They're just of some of my favourite characters (excluding Donna, The Master, Jack and Jackie) and not from any particular Doctor Who episodes.

Miracle Day

aliensoflondon — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 13:07:02 GMT

I'm very happy with these - I really like the colouring and texture usage and I made sure that they were how I wanted them to be. I also downloaded some better paint textures, and I even made a PSD as I was making icons! Please let me know what you think of these! Concrit is most certainly welcome! All icons feature scenes from Miracle Day (Torchwood Series 4)!

Green Anchor

aliensoflondon — Sat, 31 Aug 2013 23:23:37 GMT

I'm actually posting some ~~Moffat~~ era icons! I've sort of cheated though because I used an episode by Tom Macrae, The Girl Who Waited (my favourite episode from series 5-7), because I like the red colouring and the white background of the whole episode. The set is brilliant! I also made a few Rose icons and 1 Ninth Doctor icon from the episode Father's Day. Some colourings aren't great but the screencaps for Father's Day weren't great, and the episode colouring is absolutely horrendous. I got some good crops from both episodes though!

Partners in Crime

aliensoflondon — Sat, 31 Aug 2013 11:56:10 GMT

I didn't plan on making these, but as I was making edits for roseinperil I found that I quite liked the subtle colourings so I thought I'd make some basic icons. I tried to do some better cropping on these, so do tell me what you think. These are nowhere near my best but I was just playing around in Photoshop. Constructive criticism is most certainly welcome!

hello_pond is still my main community. This one is just one I've made with a friend and we'll be posting graphics like colourings and retouches. This is still my main place for graphics!

Hey! roseinperil is a new graphics community by idontwanttogo and aliensoflondon! We will mostly be posting Doctor Who and Torchwood relating stuff but we may post other stuff from time to time! Do visit, leave some comments and possibly watch?

Silence in the Library

aliensoflondon — Thu, 29 Aug 2013 16:52:00 GMT

I've been watching some Doctor Who from where I was up to, so I got to Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead, and I really enjoyed them. Despite my dislike for Steven Moffat I do like these episodes (they do have their flaws), and the colouring is perfect, which makes it very icon-able. I concentrated hugely on colouring and aesthetics - fuck crops, I wanted faces, expressions and colours, and I actually did a little work on text - I don't use a lot of text but I tried on one or two of these. I'm really pleased with these so enjoy. I would have done more Donna but she's not looking especially great in these eps so yeah. I'll do some Amy/11 soon. If these look plain, look at some screencaps and see the colour improvements I've made!

15 Doctor Who Icons

aliensoflondon — Tue, 27 Aug 2013 17:30:04 GMT

I stuck to the same style as before but these icons are more about my cropping and screencap choosing rather than colouring/use of textures/styles etc. Episodes include The Doctor Dances, World War Three, Rose and Bad Wolf.

20 Doctor Who Icons

aliensoflondon — Mon, 26 Aug 2013 23:40:41 GMT

I decided to stay simple with this batch. They all have a few adjustment layers and maybe one or two colour blobs and the occasional texture, and there's one or two 3D effects in there, but everything is pretty simple, which I like. I especially like the ones that I emphasized facial features on, and I tried some glows too. Also check out the Dalek vision. I've never done 9 and I love series 1 so the eps are Bad Wolf, Dalek, Aliens of London and The Empty Child. Thoughts?

Theme Tweak

aliensoflondon — Mon, 26 Aug 2013 18:29:41 GMT

I've tweaked the theme of hello_pond so that it's now based on blue with orange emphasis, a Gwen Cooper (Torchwood) background/layout image and larger/easier to read font. I've also swapped out the dotted borders for solid light grey ones that are thicker or none at all, as well as white backgrounds/padding. Any thoughts?

10 Torchwood Icons

aliensoflondon — Sun, 25 Aug 2013 13:40:57 GMT

I've followed a few tutorials on colouring and stuff so hopefully these look a lot better. I've gone for simpler textures and colour schemes. These icons are all from the episode 'Countrycide' which I watched yesterday - the episode is good for the style of icons I went for because the lighting is really dark and you can emphasize the shadows. It's also about cannibals.

18 Torchwood Icons

aliensoflondon — Sat, 24 Aug 2013 17:40:33 GMT

Still getting used to Photoshop again, I tried to be a bit more adventurous with textures and stuff but they all fall into two distinct styles, and both of these styles are ones I'd like to stick to for now. I also like 3D effects.
