THEMES/PROMPTS
1. Red Carpet: your celeb doesn't necessarily has to be on the red carpet in the icon, but you icon them in a glamorous pose or event. If your celeb hasn't attended one, you can simply focus on elegance and general pose.
2. Negative Space: your icon has to be "empty" for most of the space.
(marcasite, adriftingsea, sietepecados, naive_astronaut, barstr7)
3. Out Of The Box this is a fun theme I saw at character20n20 so credits to them. You have to use wild textures, use a weird coloring or crazy brushes. Just make something unusual, not necessarily complex.
(nightbulbs, juanxyo, margerydaw_s2, hitsuga, lady_kingsley)
4.Academy: icon your celeb in the movie they were nominated for! You'll find the movie below, in the gallery section.
5. Dots: or little circles! Include them in the icon :)
(absolutelybatty, naiveastronaut, littleton_pace, bigbangsheldon, marinasicons)
6. Satisfaction
7. Purple The majority of your icon should have a purple coloring.
8. Hair Focus on your celeb's hair.
9. Fire: Include a fire texture in your icon. Below you can find some examples AND some fire textures (but you can use your own or other ones). Also, your icon doesn't necessarily have to be red or orange or of a fire color. You can also use your texture with a cold coloring.
(monstersinyou, gallicka, sietepecados, violetraindrop, poisonfield)

10. Photoshoot: for this icon you have to use a photo of one of your celeb's photoshoots.
Category Set - BLACK AND WHITE. It's Oscars, it's classic and it's always good.
Make 5 icons in black and white.
