Hope I'm doing this right! ^^

I started icon-making late this year (after being away for 9 years!), so I don't have many posts. My icons posts can be found here at 1wonderment.

Sorry it took me so long. ^^

For the Spider-Gwen icon, I decided to go with a faraway crop and decided to keep the slightly retro feel. Since my texture had a speech bubble, I decided to add the "Hello, my name is..." since Gwen didn't get one in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

This was pretty hard, they're all such great compositions! In the end, I chose these two:

I apologize for the delay! ^^

For the Eowyn icon, I decided to go with a close crop. Since the original icon had sort of a brownish, muted coloring, I decided to go for a stronger more vibrant coloring but only on her hair, eyes, and lips.

ooooh, I love the strong contrast in the Eowyn icon. I am very impressed how much stronger her face looks like that! I love the primary color combo of her eyes, hair and lips, too.

The Mulan icon is great! With the closer crop, now her expression is so much more visibly angry! :D

When I returned after 7-8 years I wasn't this good out of the gate, haha. Hope one of them inspires you! :) (I've saved a bunch and watched the comm. I've fallen behind on keeping up with all that stuff, oops.)

D'awww. Thanks for the lovely comments!

Sorry it took me so long to do the remakes. ^^

For the Yu-na icon, I decided to do a slightly muted vibrant coloring as opposed to the neon vibrance of the original icon. For the cropping, I decided do a head-to-waist shot. The icon was looking a little bare, so I added some textures to emphasize the pinks, blues, and purples in Yu-na's outfit.

I apologize for the delay in my remakes! ^^

For the Eowyn icon, I decided to go for a faraway crop and a crisp, clean coloring. The icon was looking a little bare, so I added a texture and got the middle icon. I liked the way it turned out, but I still felt that the icon looked a little bare, so I added another texture (slightly modified) and added a slight closer crop of the same image.
