WOW, I haven't made icons in a long time. And in the meantime I lost my ability to make bright colors, but I have developed heavy dull contrast in a big way... So this batch is all one color palette. Oops.

Emergency Icon Post.

( the new still )

I talked stellar_dust's ear off about Spaced earlier tonight, so as penance I decided to stop surfing around and doing nothing and instead post those icons I've been promising.

I tried as best I could to make sure the color and resolution on these icons was good enough - by and large there aren't high quality images available on the internet for Spaced, and my own caps from .avi were barely serviceable. Anyway! I'm happy with most of them.

I haven't made XF icons in *so long* and I only have a handful to post this time. As I was saying to foxestacado the other day, I feel like other people on LJ are doing it so well, I don't have anything to add! But I have a small new batch nonetheless.

+ 64 "Spaced"
+ 20 "Spaced" cast/crew
+ 6 "X-Files"

If, a week or so ago, I gave you Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy in icons, this time I present: Protestantism. There aren't as many, unfortunately, because isn't quite as much material to work with. (Blame Zwingli.)

Okay! Icons and religious art!

I apologize that I can't credit most of the original artists - I saved most of these pictures several months ago, and only intended them for personal use. I do know that a couple of them came from this guy on Flickr.

Some of the images used are from real icons, both historical and contemporary; some are artistic pieces created in imitation of, but outside of the tradition of, Eastern iconography. By mixing them, I don't mean to denigrate the tradition of icon writing, or the icons themselves, in any way. Some of the Old Testament figures, venerated in the Eastern Church, are not a part of the Western canon.

I went a little crazy about labeling them: if you hover your cursor over the icon, you will get a name and maybe a description. IT TOOK ME FOREVER.

Lots of icons I made this summer but never posted!


+ 38 X-Files
+ 11 SVU

( cut! )

WOW, it's been awhile. I don't like some of these. I like others lots. There are Dylan Thomas poems (or, lines from them). There is Sheryl Crow. There is no Celine Dion, for once.

Okay, if you're looking at pictures you might as well make icons.



( 21 Gene Kelly icons )


I might make caps before we return the DVD, and if so there may be SitR icons at a later date. :P

Yes, my laptop is dead, for the moment. But since I'm checking email ("checking email") on the desktop, I might as well get this out of the way.


( 56 XF icons (12 CSM) )

( 20 CCM icons )

First: mostly textless, brushless X-Files S3 icons.

+ comment

I developed a sudden and consuming devotion for Michelangelo's David, today, and have made a batch of icons. Curious.


( 10 icons of various angles I found )

+ Gack, comment, credit :)

( 60 Behind the Scenes X-Files icons )

So I doubt these are in very much demand, but I was bored and wanted to make a few icons of local places. I might as well post them for the few of you who may be interested :P


( 17 Northwest icons/bases )

ETA: Oh, I'll attach this small set, too.
( 7 icons from 'Danny, Champion of the World' and more )

"Oh, I know well enough that you were not lovers. You left me that. The divine blood will not mix with subjects', they say. You left me my share. When you had used him, you would let him steal home to me; until you needed him again. After weeks and months at the wars -- you and he night and day together, sharing the councils, the dangers, the victories, the soldiers' bread, the very jokes -- he could come back to me, each time a little thinner and greyer and with a few more scars, and fall asleep before his supper was down, and cry out in his dream, 'Quick, on the right there! The Queen's in danger!'..."
- Till We Have Faces, C.S. Lewis

Icons about partners.

They've been sitting on my hard drive for weeks, which means I am ambivalent about several.



( 27 XF icons )

( 10 SVU icons )

( 7 HP icons )

( And one random Numb3rs )

X-Files icons, surprise!

It's been about four months since my last post. That's my longest gap -ever-. I ran into a really bad icon-block for most of that time, but it finally broke this week.

Notes:
- They all look the same. To gloss over my lack of creativity, I'm calling them a "themed set." Certain brushes were grossly overused.
- Resources: meleada and eightyfour__
- I hope you like! If you want to take any, comment, and credit in keywords. :) Thanks!

Tease:
