Here's a huge icon dump of stuff that's been sitting on my hard drive for months. I can't even recall what half this stuff was made for, but I'm guessing it was for help-japan auction winners since I'm not familiar with most of the fandoms. All the Leverage icons are for leverageland challenges, and man, I did not know there were that many waiting to be posted! Y'all ( Read more... )

Aaaaand...I've died. Simple is very hard for me to do (weirdo, right?) so it's nice to hear that I can at least do it well on occasion! I killed myself making 55. I guess now I know it was worth the pain! THANK YOU FOR YOUR MAGICAL WORDS, JØRGEN! YOU'VE MADE MY WEEKEND START OFF BRILLIANTLY! <3

I STILL HAVEN'T TRIED GAME OF THRONES, BUT I READ PART OF THE FIRST BOOK IN 2010, AND TYRION WAS MY FAVE. I HAD A SNEAKING SUSPICION THAT PETER DINKLAGE WOULD END UP PLAYING HIM. HE'S FREAKIN' AWESOME! YOU UNDERSTAND I LOLed OVER THE HARDISON/VIOLIN/LADY BITS COMMENT, RIGHT? OF COURSE, YOU DO! UGH ,THAT MOTHERFUCKER'S FACE IS TOO BEAUTIFUL AND ADORABLE AND SCHMEXY. IT NEEDS TO BE IN EVERY DAMN PERSON'S FACE ALL THE TIME, ESP. PARKER'S THOUGH. DUH. THEY NEED TO MAKE OUT IN S5, LIKE FOR SERIOUS. IS IT JULY 15 YET? I WANT MY NEW EPS, GODDAMMIT!

HE'S FREAKIN' AWESOME!

YES. UGH. PETER IS AMAZBALLS ALL THE TIME AND HE WAS A TRUE STARVING ARTIST WHO DIDN'T JUST GO PLAY A LEPRECHAUN BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT LITTLE PEOPLE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO FUCK THAT. THEY GAVE THAT DUDE AN EMMY BECAUSE THEY KNEW WHAT THE FUCK WAS UP.

THEY NEED TO MAKE OUT IN S5, LIKE FOR SERIOUS

TRUER WORDS. THEY DO NOT EXIST.

SHE'S LIKE AN ALIEN, DUDE, AND SHE TOTALLY NEEDS TO FIND HER HOME PLANET. THAT PLANET IS CALLED "ALEC HARDISON'S PANTS,

THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOU KIM. YOU UNDERSTAND ME IN WAYS FEW CAN.

PETER HAS A VERY SERIOUS AND COMMANDING PRESENCE, SO IT MUST BE NICE THAT HE FOUND A MEATY ROLE THAT REALLY LETS HIM BE EMOTIONAL AND STRONG, NOT JUST SOME DUMB CHARACTER FOR OTHERS TO LAUGH AT. MUST START WATCHING GoT FOR THAT FOOL, SERIOUS SHIT.

MAKING OUT IS A MUST FOR THEM. CAN THEY PLAY A MARRIED COUPLE ON HONEYMOON OR SOMETHING? PRETTY PLEASE WITH A CHERRY ON TOP????????? I KNOW HARDISON WOULD BE SO DOWN FOR THAT!

YOU AND I HAVE A MENTAL CONNECTION. WE'RE BOTH MENTALLY UNWELL. IT MAKES FOR GOOD TIMES, ESP. WHEN WE SQUEE OVER FICTIONAL COUPLES. <3

Holy shit!! This is gorgeous, Kim! So many interesting colors and compositions. I really admire the way you have your own style, meaning that even though each post is different, I still could tell it was by you even if I didn't *know*.

It's always hard to pick favorites from batches that are just so good all around, but I think 4&5, 6-8, 12, 15, 24, 29 (this is what my eyes first settled on, it just shines with its gorgeous negative space composition and brightness!), 35, 42, 44 (god you're SO good with text), 59, 65-68, 72, 84 and the whole last row are the ones that make the very biggest impact on me. Which still excludes many, many awesome icons.

Okay, I know this is the suckiest comment ever and I'd love to give more detailed fb on what exactly I love about them, but I really don't have the time now (DAMN DEADLINE THAT IS IN 3 DAYS), and I think it could all be summed up as 'colors, compositions, text, creativity, everything' :)

Your comments kinda make me throw up with excitement, Tommi. Seriously. You have quite a talent for making others feel super encouraged and motivated to keep working on icons! ;)

I really admire the way you have your own style, meaning that even though each post is different, I still could tell it was by you even if I didn't *know*.
It amuses me when people say that cuz I feel like my work is never stylistically cohesive, so if I got amnesia and someone showed me my own work, I wouldn't know it was by the same person, much less all by me!

I'm so glad that #44's text caught your eye cuz I remember working on that for so long...even though it looks quite simple. #29 was also pretty hard to get to a decent place, so it's very awesome that it jumped out and got your attention! The final row consists of my fave things here, and I'm dancing with joy cuz you like those, too!

There's nothing remotely sucky about your comment, so give yourself more credit, dude. Your words have made me feel very proud and supported, so THANK YOU! <3
