Seconding the Buffy icon love - the S7 (Never Leave Me?) one you're using is achingly, meltingly lovely and if you weren't using it yourself already I'd snag it. (I have a hang up about that. I'm just weird that way.)
I have a huge thing for icons that look like illustrations or paintings rather than photographs and aren't too "smooth"; all of yours are wonderful but this one in particular has an very subtle painterly feel to it.

You are AMAZING at picking out episodes from what's an otherwise kind of ordinary crop of a pretty shot of the character. I am super impressed (and just a little intimidated)! I know what you mean about looking more painting like. I love both: the super-clear-could-be-looking-right-at-me and the more artistic and interesting painterly effects. I have tried innumerable times over the years (and years) to get that effect on demand but, alas, it eludes me. Whenever I achieve it, it's purely a happy accident. I suspect it's something about the cap -- the original show lighting plus the capper's settings -- and how it responds to my preferred processing m.o. I almost flipped the icon to b/w because Buffy had gone so hot and saturated. I had to look at it for a long time to decide that I didn't care what others thought; I really liked the effect. :)

I'm glad it works for you, too!

BTW - I was looking again at your calvin and hobbes icons and really impressed by the clarity of so many of them and the bright, clean colors. But 131 (the adulthood one) is TOTALLY my jam.

You are? OMG, srsly?? Thank you, you just made my night! I'm blushing like a rose right now. (And, I really can't imagine.)

I know exactly what you mean! I've tried sketching and pre-planning images but that never seems to work well, it always has to happen in the process. Which means lots of failures and an occasional good one. This is why I'm really not great at 20in20 sets - I tend to make 5-9X the number of icons I need just to get a set of entries.

I suspect it's something about the cap -- the original show lighting plus the capper's settings -- and how it responds to my preferred processing *nods* With buffyverse, the later seasons in theory should be easier to work with because of better lighting, but in fact they end up
