085: the world can be an unfair place at times / but your lows will have their complement of highs

It's been one hell of a month in my life, and there was absolutely no desire or inspiration to open Photoshop for the past few weeks. Kinda terrifying if I'm being honest. But then I forced myself to try and make at least one measly icon on Wednesday, and before I knew it, I'd whipped up 7. The drought is officially over! REJOICE! I finished up 13 ( Read more... )

Okay, that Kanye icon is siiiiiiiiick. & so many Misfits icons. SO MANY.
I love the first Awkward icon, the colors look great and I love how it alternates in their clothes vs the background! Brilliant!
The textures/blocking you put together in 5 look so wonderful together! I love how the colors interact.
Damn girl. The coloring for that Bale icon. GAH. It's so dreamy and watery and I love it.
Love how ~out there My Instrument is.
& the lighting in My Job from Hell is amazing and pretty!
OBV My Smallness is my favorite though. The crop works so well, and green/orange is one of my all-time favorite color combinations, so that icon has it all!

Love this batch!

While making the Kanye piece, I actually remembered that awesome pink one of yours that I adore. Still one of my fave icons of yours EVER. Anything Kanye is pretty much dedicated to you, dude. <3

So excited about the neg space in my Awkward icons, and I have people at anon-icon to thank for that cuz someone had a great tip about using a hard brush at 75% opacity, and it worked like a charm!

The Bale icon took a minute to make. I think it's just one layer each of Color Balance and Selective Colors. Eaaaaaaasy!

I knew you'd get My Instrument! It's got that outlandish, oddball vibe that somehow speaks to both of us.

Awwww, I love that My Smallness is your fave here! It's so low-key for me, which is actually appropriate.

Did you notice how normal most of this stuff looks? It's not super textured like my usual stuff. Don't know what happened there, but whatevs. Change of pace is always amusing.

Thanks for all the feedback, dude! It's so very much appreciated! :)

You act as if I'm anti-comment! Any and all feedback is welcome, so it's great to know you love that one. I could not think of a more fitting texture for Yeezy than a fucking target! Was trying to think of text for another alt, but it was too cluttered so textless it stayed.
