Magnificent Seven Icons and Graphics
I had some graphics time yesterday (and all my shiny new screencaps were burning a hole in my brain), so I made icons (a few), a graphic (of non-specific function), and a wallpaper. And, amazingly, there's color again. After two weeks wandering the sepia wilds, I've now returned to the land of color. :D
It's all either Chris, Vin or Chris/Vin. I do want to make some icons of Buck, because he's so awesome, and Ezra. (And I have an idea for an icon of Mary that probably no one wants but me. :D) Hopefully this weekend, I'll have a bit of spare time for all of that.

For some reason icons of Chris are a real struggle for me. Getting what makes him so sexy to fit into one little teeny picture...well, it's just tough. I had *quite* a few rejects along the way to get to those two.
The graphic is Chris/Vin. I was thinking it might be a cover for a story I've got off at the beta's, but it's not quite right for that. So it just is what it is...a banner maybe, a little something you can look at once in a while. I suppose everything doesn't have to have a purpose.
The wallpaper's pure Vin. (Mind you, not for lack of *trying* to get Chris in there. I worked at it like you wouldn't believe. But it just never looked right.) If you want to imagine that Vin's thinking of Chris or that Chris is just off-screen to the left, go right ahead. :D
The wallpaper was made at 800x600. To my eyes it looks fine expanded up to 1280x1024. But your eyes may be different from mine. Heck, they almost certainly are. Click for the full-sized version.
No tutorials for any of this, just making use of some new textures and new tricks I've learned.
All are free for anyone to take and use. Comments are sweet and credit is sweeter, but I can't say as either are required, so follow your heart.
