tinbrella: First of all, her icon is just so fucking beautiful. It's absolutely perfect and I love it. This is my sad attempt of paying that beauty homage.
vibrant: I like this one, it's simple and I tried to keep the colors more muted keeping with the more 50's feel of the house she's in but yeah.
library_of_sex: All in all, I'm pleased with this one. I'll never be as good as Kim with her coloring and textures when it comes to using more monochrome coloring but I like it. Also, I love the dialogue in this show--as I'm sure you're picking up if you've watched The Hour.
reflection: Quite a literal interpretation, but it worked.
text over the face: Again, dialogue from the show. Clarence's flat tone and lack of emotion just hit me in this scene. I can imagine, if only for a few minutes that her mind just keeps hearing that, like an echo, or the little devil on her shoulder.
linear text: Part of what I love about this series is Freddie's obsession with unraveling riddles and refusing to heed people's belief's that he's wrong. Also, Ben's face. It's awesome.
shapes: This fucking scene. I love that they start off the series with Freddie being so totally besotted with Bel and her utter lack of recognition. But Lix's comment cracks me up.
absolutelybatty: Wow, so this was a shot in the dark, and one that hit it's target more than I thought it would--wow that made no sense. GO ME.
adina-mpj: I quite like how this one turned out. Again, not what I had in mind and it took me a while (and a shit ton of layers) to get there but I like it.
creative blend: Seemed like a good idea at the time. Another case of looked better in my head.
mancalahour: Quite pleased with this one, not gonna lie.
dramatic lighting: Ruth just kills me. She is so young and so naive, she's scared and she turns to the one person she always admired, believed in---I like to think that as a child she thought him to be her knight.
texture: Not much to say, I just really like the cyan.
grunge: This was more of an excuse to use Romola's face. Because I love it.
black & white V color: This came out much different than what I had in mind when I started. Still not sure of it but, not my worst work.
muted colors: I fucking love this icon. Don't ask me why I just do. Romola is just so beautiful and her hair is just---it's the definition of hair porn. Thus her being in so many of these icons.
coloring with light textures: Drunk Freddie is the best Freddie. That's all I got.
painted: Well, it's painted now isn't it? That's all I've got.
apologizeg: The original icon is so awesome. I love the use of different parts of the same image. Mine looks like crap. I liked it, then I hated it, then I loved it---now I loathe it.
muted colors: I adore this crop. I just really love her hair in this scene.
