loudlunacy picked the following 5:-




1. I made this one for a LIMS… I think the travel to be precise, I remember looking at this picture
and thinking what do I do with it? As you could see I used what I call the blurred circle that was in at the
time. Just to give it a new different look, I also added the little brush cause face it sometimes it just
needs it, you know? The coloring really came out nicely I’ll admit that. Stocks are always really
challenging to work with.
2. I’m not a die-hard fan girl obsessed Harry Potter fan like my little sister, but I do love the
movies, especially the books. In this icon I really tried to just go with a different style, ever since I got
into graphic design I found a new appreciation for art, and in this icon, as you see Harry is split in two
leaving the scar in the middle, that how I see him, he’s left with this burden that was given to him, and
yet he’s fighting to be normal, the scar is with him both ways, and there’s no turning back. It’s what
defined him. I liked the coloring for it, especially the right side, I thought it was gorgeous how it turned
out, and then I reflected it. Which also came out not too bad
3. We come to the Twilight icons, this I’ll admit I am totally obsessed with this series, after I
read Twilight I went and opened Photoshop and created a manip, this was the second I made, I dunno
Twilight manips weren’t as hard as others were. I just loved the way the car fitted in the backround, I
thought it made the manip more twilight-y with the Volvo in the picture, the text here was century I
love how its simple yet it gives it a really nice look to the icons when used correctly.
4. Ok since I took course in graphics I know how to cut, my teacher was really tough on that,
and you could tell that’s Robert Pattinson just cause his cute figure! I add one of my not yet posted
textures, which
BTW will be coming soon. I wanted to try something different with the icon, that’s why
as you can see there are a lot of things added in it.
5. ‘Esme Cullen is my mother-in-law’ <<< Doesn’t that just say it all, LOL I’m not a really good
icon-text maker, I try. I thought the pink went well because Esme is such a soft sweet person… and all
us fangirls wish what the icon says…
*wink* *wink*

1. I made this one a while back go, I love how the gold associated the green, the coloring in my POV came out really nicely especially because we were in Fall, growing up Halloween was my favorite holiday… LOADS of candy baby.
2. This was made for the travel icon-contest, I blended in a pattern with a soft toned pink set to screen, and a gorgeous texture just to add the numbers at the bottom. Very soft toned, sometimes that’s my favorite way to go ;)
3. I loved the cast picture (HP) I went for a blue/ grey look to it, with just simple addition with textures and a brush, I really liked how they came out color-wise not too blurred and not over sharpened which is what I hate the most, Over sharpening pictures!
4. Hayden Christensen is one of my favorite actors! I love creating for him, this icon was originally a wallpaper, I’m not sure if I’ve ever posted it here, but I went for a totally modern look for it I loooove the Cairo font, it looks sooo good on icons. And those textures were my favorite at that time I loved how they came out in the icon, the texture backround made the icon seemed like it was cut out of a scrap book or sometime. Its Hayden how could you not feel like making for him.
5. This icon is one of my personal favorites cause its originated from the first manipulation I’ve ever made for twilight, Edward and Bella are the perfect ship ever! Its not hard making them into an icon, there gorgeous without anything added to them, especially ROB! I tired to go really simple about it. I didn’t want a font in there to over do my chances with it, so I just added a simple little texture which I just adore!
Leave a commet if'd like me to pick for you :)
