OMG SKYYYYYYYYY. <33333333333333333 I absolutely love number 5, and 6 and 10, and 11 is fab, as is 13, and then 14 and 15, and for some reason 18 really really gets to me. And 19 omg. You are so good at making these, it's unbelievable, such a sense for composition and colour - if you just practiced regularly, you'd make a GREAT artist!! <333333333

Thank you so much for this comment, Cello. You know it made my day <333

No. 6 is so pretty I may have to steal it for my Dreamwidth!

And I see that the moobs have gotten an icon all to themselves, which is totally deserved.

Also, I love the colouring on no. 11.

[talkingtothesky]

Please, steal away! The moobs definitely deserve icon recognition, I'm glad you agree. :D

Oh, goodness, I'm just here to flail over the colours and the gorgeous cropping. *picks up jaw*

Seriously, these are eye-catchingly beautiful. Very nice!

Thanks so much for looking, Sev! Sorry I've been slow to reply.

Mmmmm, lovely!

Predictably, I like the Gene pretties best of all. 9 is oh so fine, and I'm weirdly in love with 19. I love the way you cropped it!

Also, 5 is beautiful-- I never really think to use distance shots like that in icons, but this one is really sharp and effective.

These are all very nice, thanks for sharing! :)

Yay, thanks for liking the Gene ones! <333

#11 has a wonderful palette, it reminds me of some of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid (semi realistic, not Simpsons esque, heavily saturated colors). Also old toy packaging (I love old babrie box art so, so much!)

[talkingtothesky]

Oh good, that's what I was going for! :)

Oh, they are lovely. Thanks so much for sharing!

I think no. 6 is my favourite (with 5, 8 and 13 close at the heel). That look on Sam's face... Oh, how I miss the series. I mean, it's still there, I can re-watch whenever I want... but it hurts me that it's been over for so long now. I think I'll never be able to let go of my love for it (not that I would want to). It just brings out so many feels!! Joy and sadness, love and excitement... *sigh*

Love all of them!

[talkingtothesky]

Thanks for picking out your faves, and I know how you feel re. the age of the series now. And as you say it's still as emotionally powerful as it always was!

I'm very fond of your framing/cropping of these! It's such an art, and clearly it's an art that you've achieved a high degree of mastery in.

(For the record, autocorrect is saving my bacon vis a vis typing while intoxicated...)

Ahem. Bloody good icons. Please write some fic soon!

[talkingtothesky]

*blush* I don't know about mastery, I just crop it into a square shape!

I will try to write some fic soon! I have plenty TO write but no enthusiasm for all the ideas. And I got really behind on commenting on other people's work, which I'm slowly catching up on but I don't feel I should post again until I'm caught up!
