Remakes 2016

Jul 25, 2016 21:37

Phew, this took me over three months! In between all the challenges with deadlines, it had to take the backseat again and again. I finally sat down and did the last three this week, so I could get them done!

The idea was to remake some of my old icons. Four lovely people looked through my old icons and suggested some to remake. Here's the result, and I think some of those actually turned out great. Especially compared to my hideous works from before. ;)

I think especially the Bones one turned out really cool. I'm not all that happy with the other two, but the screencaps were really LQ for both of those.

angelamaria picked some tough ones that weren't all that bad technically in the first place, imho. I found this set the hardest to remake. I really already loved the Bones one especially, so I just tried to improve sharpness and coloring and otherwise go for the exact same result. There's an alt that's a little different, but I really just like that icons as it is.

I'm pretty proud of all three of those. Even though it wasn't hard to do better than the old ones ;), these remakes all have something I really like.

Another set where I thought the old ones weren't *all* that bad at first glance. They are, though. :) I had a really hard time with both the Kirk and the Chuck icon. The only one that flowed relatively easily was Annie. My muse this week just sucks, so maybe that explains it.

Alts:










All in all, this was a very fun activity, and feels like an accomplishment. Not that all of the remakes even turned out wonderful, but it still feels good to see how much I've improved over the years.
