If there ever was a category for best colors EVERYTHING, you'd totally win. I mean, seriously, LOOK AT THEM. I'm basically unable to make cheerful icons, so I'm in awe of yours!
And how do you even keep inventing such new cool things?! Like this icon. I've never even seen a composition like that and it's just so awesome.

wow, thank you so much for this wonderful comment!! ♥ I looove all kinds of colors, but for some reason i keep making everything bright and vibrant - I think it's about the caps, now that I've mostly been iconing Lost I can't resist using all the scenery to make it colorful, but Sherlock for example has very different caps, so that set is more muted.

I'm basically unable to make cheerful iconsTHIS IS A LIE I mean look at the Juliet icon I posted these with, it's definitely cheerful-colored perfection! but ofc I love alll the other colorings you do too, especially all the gradient map mastery

Thank you so much for the lovely words and listing favorites, I'm always surprised when people do that in big posts like this, I just assume the icons sort of blend together cause there are too many of them to notice any individual favorites, so this made me really happy, thanks again!! :>

Congratulations on your awards, lovely! You totally deserve them! And I am so chuffed that your took out a best lighting award as well! What a good! :D

Everything in this post is flawless, as per usual, even if I've seen most of it before! #80 continues to slay me. I love the matte color combinations; they are killer. And your blacks are just so clean and beautiful. Gosh, I could just stare at that icon all day. And of course 107 continues to be a textual inspiration to me. Seriously. It is just so fabulous. All that text but everything is still so clear and contained and lovely. Also I am just so impressed with the yellow-green shirt in Category 3 of the 20in20 set. I don't know what that stands out so much to me, but it does. I like green/yellow/purple combinations; they are so fresh and beautiful and eye catching. So maybe that is why...but yeah, just the coloring on his shirt is amazing.

Anyway, everything is on point in this post from text to coloring to cropping to composition. ♥

You and your lovely comments! ♥ thanks so much for taking the time to write this!!
I AM SO WEIRDED OUT BY THAT LIGHTING WIN. I mean I never ever expect to place in any category, but out of all the technical categories, 'lighting' would be my last guess o.O I always list it as a weakness rather than a strength of mine so... no idea where that came from, especialy since that icon is one of the only ones I made this year that weren't for a challenge or anything, just random fiddling with PS, and while I don't hate the icon or anything, I didn't think it was anything memorable either :p

cat3 was my favorite of the 20in20 icons, I'm so glad you like the shirt! I'm actually quite proud of that coloring cause that cap was extremely cyan/green so I'm just happy I got some other colors into it (hue/saturation was the savior here) :)

Thanks again for the fantastic comment ♥

My goodness there's so much to look at in this post. All the colors are gorgeous and the style is great. I took some Lost icons. I never watched Sherlock and I only saw a few Dr. Who episodes, but those are so pretty that I want to snag them.

Aw, thank you so much!! I'm really glad you even found something to snag, enjoy! :)

Okay, wow, that's a lot of pretty icons!
I love the more muted vintage coloring on 9, 22, 37, 96 and 106. But the vibrant look of 5, 10, 32, 38, 92 and 100 is also awesome. And your composition of course! Category 5, 85 and 93 are just amazing and it's just fun to look at them and discover the little details. I really like all the of the Sherlock icons, as well :D

wow, I'm always surprised when people list favorites for big posts, cause it's really difficult to look at so many icons individually. and you listed a ton!! Thank you!! :D so glad you like the colors and compositions, I had so much fun making almost everything you mentioned, so thanks for all the lovely words :3
