Woo! Update! I bring to you...

2 Boromir icons:

1.

And 3 requests:

1.

For

beehay. It says "Nothing is true, except the things that are not said". Not because I thought that's what went best with the picture, it's just something that I've been thinking of today, and no one can read the text anyway. It's a quote of Jean Annouilh.

2.

For

finduilas_clln. It says "niet wat je zegt, maar wat je niet zegt".

3.

For

patsie.

All brushes by either

teh_indy or

inxsomniax; all gradients by

crumblingwalls or meself.

I'm planning to pick my icons up where I left them. I've been playing with PS7 (installed yesterday) and PSP8 (downloaded back in February), trying to make the same icon with both, and for now, I prefer PSP. One icon today, more to follow soon.

Credit:
Text brush (Tengwar! yay!) by

crumblingwalls, gradient also by

crumblingwalls. Border brush by

crushedviolet. Text comes from

lotr_chorus, one of their past challenges.

Rules in my spiffy, restyled userinfo.

Subject:	Basic PSP8 tutorial.
Time:	12:55 pm.

Following in the footsteps of

tiny_wanderer, I made a tutorial for people who have no experience in PSP8 whatsoever.

domhobbitzes only. Credit me, will ya?

Today I found myself on the verge of deciding against any future iconing. I then stumbled upon this tutorial, tried to make a Denethor icon from a screencap I've been wanting to use for ages, and was rather satisfied. Result:

What does this mean? I will get myself together, spank my PSP and make icons!

I think I owe credit to

crumblingwalls,

teh_indy,

milk and I'm afraid some others too, but I forgot to write it down. *slaps self*

Credit please, if you take it.

I made four Faramir icons, but then when I had a last look at them before uploading, I decided against it. I'm becoming really critical of my icons. In my opinion, only one of them has come out well, so that's the one I'm posting. I'm even giving y'all a tutorial for it!

Enjoy your iconing, and if there's something you don't understand, feel free to ask. Feedback would be great, since this is my first ever tutorial. The icon is up for grabs if you credit

parrotcake. *bows* Thank you, goodnight!

Goedemorgen, schatjes!

I was once again too late to participate in

lotr_hush, but I decided it would be nice to try the challenge anyway. Just to learn and stuff. So I made some black and white icons:

Credit:
Saruman: all brushes by

quebelly
Gandalf: 2 brushes by

quebelly, one by

milk, border by

elli
Aragorn: texture by

sinecure, brush by

quebelly, border by

lily_blossoms and another border by

quebelly
Nazgûl: 2 brushes by

quebelly, brush by

gegenschein, border by

lily_blossoms

Rules here.

Comments: flame?.

Mood:	listless.

Three icons, upon

lessient's request, but I suppose they're gackable. No altering, credit please.

Credit to

milk for all of the brushes, and to

balcarin for the border in the first icon. Lyrics on that one from Desk Job Yob Rock by Jimmy Jazz and the Bootlickers.

More Liv, because she has a very interesting face and I love making icons out of portraits. Also, gradient layers are my new best friend.

Teaser:

Also! I got into

takenote_icons! But now I'm kinda nervous about posting these... I'm scared they won't be good enough. Anyway, I'm sure at some point I'll be able to convince myself.

Credit for these:
1. Border by

gegenschein, line brush by

crumblingwalls. Lyrics from Displaced by Azure Ray.
2. Border by

pekeana.
3. Grid and line brush by

crumblingwalls, border by

pekeana. Lyrics from How To Disappear Completely by Radiohead.
4. Grid by

crumblingwalls, brush by

hermintage, border by

balcarin. Lyrics from Ruby Red by Heather Nova.

[I like giving credit for everything in specific, in the hopes that someone, some day, will find it useful to find the exact brushes I used. Yea.]

And finally, the rules.
