#211: Icons

Sep 17, 2022 21:15

During the Summer months I barely made any icons, but I also neglected to update this community with the (by now) old icons have still laying around *sighs*
So here is my entry for somein30. I picked Extra Hard Mode. I'm in a bit of a Star Wars mood after playing the Lego Skywalker Saga which makes this mode much easier. They are in chronological order since that's also how I played the game. I tried to tie them all together by adding some grunge to every icon. The icons from the new movies still look very different with their more vibrant coloring. I'd love to do another set which fits a bit more with the theme and use a TV show, but I'm not sure if that will happen. I also feel a tad bit rusty, so these are pretty simple overall, but it still took me a while to make them.

[slightly longer explanations for each icon]Episode I - The Phantom Menace: Most Known For - I feel like this movie is mostly known for rather negative things among fans apart from the character and character design of Maul.
Episode II - Attack of the Clones: MVP Character - Obi-Wan was probably the star of that movie for me, but I love that Padme finally got to do some action scenes.
Episode III - Revenge of the Sith: Favorite Scene - I'm sorry, but the entire "Anakin turning to the Dark Side" sequence is just epic.
Episode IV - A New Hope: Most Known For - Fans probably know this movie by heart. However, I think Leia's iconic buns and white dress are something that everyone knows :D
Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back: Underrated - Not a good prompt for the most popular movie of the entire series. So I decided to go with Hoth. I like the ice planet and Vader looks pretty cool in front of the white background with the scary snow troopers behind him.
Episode VI - Return of the Jedi: Favorite Quote - This one was actually pretty easy. I'm also happy with how it turned out which is rare for icons with text for me.
Episode VII - The Force Awakens: MVP Character - Finn's arc in this movie is the most interesting for me. He went from Stormtrooper to hero :)
Episode VIII - The Last Jedi: Favorite Interaction - Might be a weird choice, but I was so happy when Poe and Rey finally meet.
Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker: Plot - Everything connecting through the force to defeat the Dark Side seems like one of the central aspects in this movie. Something Rey also tries to do at the beginning of the movie while meditating. She only really succeeded during the final fight at the end of the movie.
