This month's challenge at retro_icontest was honestly so much fun; I love random options. A lot of these really made me think and helped get me out of the creative rut I was falling into, so that' nice, too. My list of prompts + ramblings on them can be found under the cut, beneath the full set of icons.

Mostly Ensemble Stars! & Final Fantasy VII; all fandoms and characters can be found in the tags.



( full set under here :D )

I lost track of time this month and completely spaced on when this was due, so this is a much smaller set for my entry for Round 70 at monthlyinspo. Text also isn't my strong point, but I had fun anyway~

--x01 Mayoi Ayase
--x01 Kanata Shinkai
--x01 Aira Shiratori

So at first I struggled to come up with what I was gonna make for part of this month's challenge at retro_icontest: remake your style. Cuz I've basically always had the same style, or at least the same attempted style- I was just significantly less good at it when I was starting out. tbh, I thought on it for nearly a month before I realized the answer was staring me in the face the whole time!!!

Sparkle icons, duh! When I wasn't making grunge-y fandom icons, I was pumping out only the sparkliest freebies back in the day :D So, I made some in that style~

Also, it's just all enstars this time, idk what anyone expects from me anymore XD I really do try to make a variety...so at least I made some other characters for once? ;D My "artist's choice" theme was to make all icons from No name yet, featuring Kohaku in the secret color of his outfit.

Sooooooo, I somehow thought I'd have a bit more variety (in fandoms) for this challenge, but enstars wins again XD This is my entry for Round 69 at monthlyinspo, and it definitely pushed me into doing something different! I don't usually do a lot of full body crops, so it was fun to challenge myself~

x15 Ensemble Stars!
--x05 Ibara Saegusa
--x05 Leo Tsukinaga
--x05 Mayoi Ayase

x05 Yu-Gi-Oh!
--x05 Thief King Bakura

Here's my entry for Round 24 at retro_icontest :D The challenge involved using two screencaps in eight different ways, and I had a lot of fun getting creative with crops/textures/etc to keep all of them looking fresh~
