So, I decided to participate in Round 1 at somein30. I was so excited when the mods decided open the community! ^^ The theme for this round sounded really interesting, so I decided that I wanted to do extra hard mode for this round. It was called extra hard mode for a reason, lol! I did experience some frustration and wasn't happy with some of the icons, but overall, I was pleased with them. Some of the themes were conflicting, so I had to get really creative. #3 was hard because adding a light texture to an already bright and vibrant icon is pretty difficult. I almost wish I had chosen a different fandom because some of themes were difficult to find caps for. I didn't realize there weren't very many full body shots or faraway shots. ^^' I think some of them turned out pretty well though like #2, 10, and 13.
I thought about doing a Kim Yu-na set because I wasn't quite happy with some of my Emma icons. I also thought about doing two sets, but since I've started working again, I didn't have as much time as I planned.
