I am just so happy to have one of my favorite icon makers making icons for my favorite dumb fandom. It makes me so happy! :D Anyway, onto my thoughts about this post!
Firstly, you must know that I adore my IAM gift! It is super lovely, and I practically jumped out of my chair with glee when I saw it. It is perfect, not just interest wise but coloring wise and composition wise as well. It's truly a gem, and thank you so much for making me such a wonderful gift! You are a star! <3 I am also pretty thrilled with the rest of the Once icons in this set though! I actually saw some of the Elsa ones in john_scopry's user pics a few days ago, and I was like 'WHERE WERE THOSE POSTED? I HAVEN'T SEEN THOSE. WHYYYYY HAVEN'T THESE BEEN IN MY LIFE!!!' So basically I had a bit of a breakdown because HELLO, they are so perfect! I love the first simple close crop of Elsa because the crop is amazing but also because that coloring is so oddly lovely. Love the hints of green that don't overwhelm or give it any sense of "unnaturalness". It's perfectly balanced. I love the two paint-y Elsa ones as well though! Love the magical cloudy bits in 03 and the medley of textures in 05 is just...amazing. I love the thoughtfulness of your texture use in both, and of course, your coloring is also on point. Aaaaaand I've skipped 02 which I didn't mean to because I LOVE it. Love the coloring and the strong blacks and the way she pops out of the background while still looking like part of it. It is just so well done. Gosh. I also LOVE the second close crop of Elsa because DAMN, that crop. You've done it again! And 09 of Regina is super pretty as well. I can't remember if I commented on it when you entered at iitask, but yeah, it is incredible. I love the major contrasty thing you've got going on there. And it is so smooth as well! AND ALL THE CAPTAIN SWAN IS GREAT OBVIOUSLY. I especially love 10 which is just the best crop, and his face is so WONDERFUL. I also think blocking Elsa is amazing; love your creative use of stock textures there! And the blended Captain Swan one is fabulous as well. So yes, please continue to icon Once forever and ever, please and thank you!!!!!
Okay, the rest of the post is super pretty, as per usual, but there are one or two that are just so crazy awesome fantastically good that I should single them out:
22 - ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THIS TEXT USE???? JESUS. I had already done up my text inspiration post with icons before you posted this, but if I hadn't, the whole post would have just been this icon because I am so IMPRESSED. The font combos are aces and totally readable which can be difficult on such a small canvas. More than that all your filter work on it is just marvelous! Like seriously, what a stupendous icon. And that is even before I acknowledge how great the crop is or how moody and wonderful the coloring is.
32 - I am so mesmerized by this icon, I swear. I love it so much. The coloring is just flaw free. There is literally nothing I do not like about it, and if I were a fan of Teen Wolf still, I would have it as my default in a heartbeat.
And yeah, just generally a brilliant icon post from you! ♥ & congrats on the more than deserved awards!
