How. Just how. I want to sob all over this post, just so you know. I'm going to have to snag all of them. These are way too beautiful. TEACH ME YOUR MAGIC.
The crop and colouring in #19 is STUNNING. And I just now saw that I got mentioned in this post WHICH MAKES ME FLAIL EVEN MORE. Because I'll be forever encouraging if THIS is what comes out of it. And I won't ever stop being a batshit crazy Avengers fan with you :3
#13 is kind of my favourite icon ever. WHY IS IT SO PERFECT. Also, please tell me what is #14. That composition is just amazing. Why do I never come up with the good stuff? Ugh. I really need to work on compositions, thanks for reminding me!
I love the deep shadows and yet colourful parts in #4!
#2 MAKES ME CRY OKAY. My poor Loki. Also perfect icon is perfect, I need to snag it asap. It is my other favourite icon ever. I love the reds in #6. Of all the icons I've seen with that cap, yours is definitely the best. Clear and crisp and hell, I know that cap is difficult to work with.
I just love the vibrance in #7 and #8. The crop and texture use in #9 are amazing. I don't even want to talk about #16. CAN I JUST SAY I LOVE THAT WHOLE BATCH + ALTERNATES. I like that style overall. Now this post makes me feel bad about my set okay. You have magic, girl I tell you.
I'm also snagging the textures, just so you know. Because I'm using the last set you did for inspired20in20 quite a lot.
Gawd, I want to marry this post and never let go again.
THANK YOU FOR LEAVING SUCH AN AWESOME COMMENT, BB. I may have sort of flailed a bit when I got it. :D And this + that last comment is kind of why you get mentioned, haha. ♥
adfjl 9 was so much fun. At first I was really struggling with it because it was a weird crop but then I just did my thing and stuck tons of textures on it and then I was really really happy with it! And can I just say, I could have done this whole set of JUST Natasha because I sort of love her face. A lot.
YAY 2. I was really pleased with how that one turned out because I never do blends or anything but THOSE TWO, I JUST HAD TO. Especially because that Thor cap was made for blending. And yes, 6 did take a bit of extra work to color but I just loved it so much that I had to!
8 was another one of my favorites, and I was super happy about the colors! I wasn't quite so sure if what was going on in 9, but I am glad it worked. DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT YOUR SET THOUGH BECAUSE I LOVED IT AND IT WAS SO PRETTY. STOP SAYING THINGS LIKE THAT. :C
I'm so glad to hear that my textures are actually useful; enjoy! :D
(and sorry for leaving you such a long comment in reply, haha. I JUST GET EXCITED OKAY.)
I JUST HAD TO OKAY. I FLAILED AT YOUR WHOLE ENTRY. I actually was in chat with haldir_lives13 and I think I capslocked at her for at least 5 minutes. And she capslocked back and we both started flailing about this entry. ♥
Oh I know about Natasha's face. I sort of love it with all my heart and I iconned her a lot as well in my set. She's just so iconable (is that even a word? NOW it is.)
I KNOW RIGHT. That cap IS made for blending. I tried to use it in a similar way but it didn't quite work so I put it aside. I can do that now for my next set for marveldc20in20.
6 is perfect! It was worth all the extra work I tell you!
OMG yes 8 is awesome. The colours are beautiful.
I WILL STOP OKAY. It's just when I see a set like this I get all challenging and competitive (with myself!) and set new goals for my next set because I need to improoooove. I kind of conquered colouring in my last set I guess? At least everyone was telling me they loved my colouring so NOW I need to get to compositions. I really do. Personally, I find my compositions boring.
Yes your textures are useful! I've shamelessly used one of them here :D And I just skimmed through the new ones and I flailed. THEY'LL BE USED IMMEDIATELY.
(It's okay, I love long replies and I left another long reply in return and I JUST GET VERY EXCITED TOO OKAY. So we're even.)
Ohmygod haha you guys are adorable. ♥ And I kind of wish I had been there to see that!
You are doing MORE AVENGERS ICONS? akdjfl;kadj YAY MAKE THEM NOW I WANT TO SEE THEM. :D I get what you mean with the improving thing, though, because I'm always doing that! Like...well, in this post, haha. I totally feel you on the compositions, though, because mine are so boring so much of the time. I just don't understand how people look at a cap and decide to do some sort of marvelous blocking thing with it! I can't wait to see what you come up with, though!
Yayyy that is awesome and makes me really happy (also THOOOOOOR!). :3 I'm glad I'm not the only one to use these things.
YES MORE AVENGERS ICONS COMING UP. 20 THOR/LOKI AND THEN 20 LOKI ONES. And I'm entering comicfilmstills on a regular basis and it results in more avengers icons as well :D SO YOU'LL SEE EVERYTHING SOON.
I want to improve so badly right now. I feel my last set was BOOM - such a leap for me and now I feel I have to push myself further. So I want to work on compositions. Because, for me it's the same, I look at an icon and I don't see any special compositions I could do with it. I'm just like: Oh, let's do a centre crop. Or... cut the face off at some point. Or make the person tiny. Negative space could work. I feel my icons are boring as well.
But your batch here is definitely not boring, bb! :D
Oooh yay! :D I am so excited by all the Avengers love going around everywhere on the Internet. :D I just can't wait until we get actual movie caps, haha, because I want them so bad!
Improving like that is the best feeling, though! And I think you do have really good interesting crops, though - sometimes that's all it takes to make an icon special. I think working with these caps really pushed me to do things ~different because I've seen so many great icons of them, and I kind of wanted to make my own interpretation of them that looked unique.
