20 Brooklyn Nine-Nine icons for theseasonwheel

[tinnny]

This year's Spring challenge at theseasonwheel was really tough ( the inspo post is worth a look! So gorgeous!). For once, the hard mode actually inspired me instead of frustrating me, so that was a welcome change. I even like the way the whole set came out so fresh and pastel - Spring colors ftw!

The crossword one is perfect! :-)

Thank you! It's my fave from the set, but the blue version works so much better than the yellow one. Another example where recoloring makes it worse. :)

These are all such fun! :D

Thank you! They were fun to make, too. I really like looking at this set.

Great icons! Makes me actually want to check out this show. :D

My favorites are “3 Crying” and “4 Jake” - lovely textures!

Thank you! The show is a lot of fun! It also has great representation (two Black men in authority, two Latinas who aren't stereotyped as sexy, one gay and one bi person, and a central relationship that is rooted in respect (and they're so cute omg)). Of course the main character is still a white man, but at least he gets really great character development over the seasons.

The only thing that took some getting used to is the shaky camera. There's a lot of wiggling and zooming, and that totally got on my nerves in the beginning. I barely notice it anymore now after 120 episodes. ;)

I watched them all in five weeks, because it is amazingly good. (Same creators as Parks & Rec, btw.)

/ahem, end B99 PSA.

Thank you! Jake was the very first icon I made for the set, but it still holds up. That's rare. I tend to hate the first ones by the time I arrive at the end of a set. :)

I love your interpretation of the themes so much! My absolute favourite icons are: amy (awesome background work and colouring), boyle (nice contrast here!), coming out (the blending is exceptional), crying (flawless composition), first date, full body, gina, love and tree (splendid lighting!) :D thank you for entering ♥

Thank you! This set turned out quite nice to look at, if I say so myself. *g*

I am very happy you picked out Amy, because I was never sure if the floral pattern really worked - I tried to enhance the pattern on her blouse, but didn't know if I succeeded. I'm also happy you like Coming out, it was so tough to get the coloring and placement of her face right. (Close and Far was really hard for me!)

Thanks for picking Gina and Crying, the composition with textures is my current fave thing, and it's nice to know I'm not the only one who likes it. :D

Love is probably my favorite icon from the set - the composition was so hard, as was the coloring, and it's my favorite scene from the show, so... I really worked hard on it.

Again, thanks so much for your lovely comment! <3
