Hi wonderful people :D Here another bunch of icons, hope you'll like them :) I also want to thank those who nominated me at magicawards. A HUGE thank you ♥
Consider this batch as an experiment. Most of the time I didn't know what I was doing xD, I tried several new things, don't know if it worked. But this is how we improve, so... :)

Challenge #5 : Your graphics must juxtapose two characters of opposing nature, while also dividing them using
contrasting warm and cool colours.
The juxtaposition can occur within each graphic or within the set as a whole.

1&7| The Dark Knight: the Joker / Batman
2&8| Spiderman: Spiderman / Green Goblin
3&9| Spiderman: Spiderman / "Black" Spiderman
4&10| Thor: Thor / Loki
5&11| The Avengers: Iron Man / Captain America
6&12| The Avengers: Bruce / Hulk
This set was really fun to make because I love superhero and it fits with my current Avengers obsession xD. So, a little explanation. This set opposes characters of opposing nature. But I didn't want to do everything "black and white" if you see what I mean. There are icons opposing heroes and their ennemy (like Batman, Spiderman), other opposing their own character (like Spiderman and Bruce) and other opposing brothers or friends. It doesn't mean that the second line represents the bad guys of their story. They're just opposed compared with the characters above.

Star Wars (original trilogy)
[30-34]
[35-38]
30| R2-D2 & C-3PO: What would be SW without these two ? George Lucas said that R2-D2 was one of the main heroes of his story.
31| Princess Leia: THE woman warrior
32| Luke Skywalker: I think Luke is one of the character who is really "white" if I can say. He's never tempted by the Dark Side, and knows what he has to do until the very end. He's really the archetype of the hero.
34| Chewbacca, Luke and Han Solo: Funny thing, there are three heroes and two of them are dressed up like bad guys.
35| Han Solo & Chewbacca: Again, this is two heroes and Han is dressed up like a stormtrooper ;)
36| Princess Leia & Luke: Here again, our Princess meets for the first time the hero of the story... in a soldier Empire costume !
37| Leia & Han: The love story of SW. Their relationship was difficult at first, because of Han "bad boy" nature and that Leia is a Princess.
38| Luke Skywalker: Luke in his Rebel uniform.

39| Dark Vader: I used this quote of Padme at the end of the III movie because it's the first time ever we see Anakin after his transformation. When the prequel trilogy wasn't out, we wondered : who or what is this man ? why did he become like that ?
40| The Stormtroopers: I remember considering these clones as the bad guys when I was little. I didn't understand what they were, or why they wore that mask. What is interesting about them is that they aren't bad or good. They just follow orders and in these movies they are on the bad side.
41| Stormtrooper
42| Dark Vader
43| Dark Vader
44| Servant of Jabba: I search the name of this adorable thing but I dind't find it ! When I was little, this pig-like really amused me, and although they were on the bad side, I really like them xD
45| Darth Sidious & Dark Vador: The master of evil and his apprentice. Here again, before the prequel came out, we didn't who he was. He's another archetype of the evil characters, the one who corrupted Anakin.
46| Dark Vader: This is one of the last scenes in the movie, when Dark Vader realize that Darth Sidious is going to kill his son. I've always been impressed by the emotions felt through the mask. This is the ultimate moment when Dark Vader becomes Anakin again.
[47-50]
47| Han Solo & Jabba: I've always wondered how Han and Jabba crossed path, and I think it would be really interesting to see it.
48| Obi-wan & Dark Vader: Without the prequel movies, we wouldn't know how this fight is important. In the end, it's really sad, Obi-wan "killed" Anakin, and Dark Vader killed Obi-wan. This bromance is one of the most tragic in the history of bromance.
49| Dark Vader & Luke: First time Dark Vader really tries to stop Luke. Did he know Luke was his son ? Did he really try to stop him ?
50| Dark Vader & Luke: The most famous battle in SW I think. Too bad that when people say "I'm your father" they don't really know where it comes from.
I've looooved making this set, and I think Star Wars was the perfect claim for this round ! But I didn't want to stay in the "black & white" (again) so I decided to change things a little. First, I didn't make cool/dark colors for the evil and warm/light colors for the good. I just let the natural light of the scene speaks for itself. I divided the set in three parts : good, evil and good vs evil. The evil part was for me the most interesting because of Dark Vader's character. He was good at first, became evil and then found redemption. His story is (for me anyway) one of the most beautiful and tragic of all stories.
