Icons #3—a batch of 25 (One, Nine, Ten and Eleven eras)

Here is my third batch—and this time I've actually mastered some new techniques! :D Still just dabbling, but at least progress happens little by little, haha. I've understood the point of layers at long last, and I am officially in love with gradients… and curves, too, a bit ♥

Anyway—here is a batch with a bit of everything: bit of classics, and all three new!Doctors. The Eleven icons were made for a battle with the wonderful [livejournal.com profile] universaldogma, who also provided me with tons of s5 screencaps—thanks a ton, lovely :D

I'll shut up now. ^_^


1) Gradients 2) First crop 3) I made some cocoa 24) Difference 25) Somber 1-5



22) Better 18) Better 19) Better 23) Better 20) Better 6-10



17) Try 16) Try 21) Better 4) Lights and contrast 5) Try 11-15



6) Better 7) Layers 8) Layers 9) Somber 15) Other 16-20



10) Layers 13) Better 11) Better 12) Other 14) Blend 21-25


And some alternates:


1) First crop 1) Sepia 24) Better 25) Better 22) Bright 1-5

Ooh, and I had to look twice at the Eleven and Clara one because I didn't even see her in the background at first -- that's like meta iconing! Love it! Oh, and you iconed One's oopsie-face and it was brilliant <3 Yay for more One icons excisting!

Hahaha, oh, I love the way you put that, brilliant! :D This icon was almost an accident—I just made it as a first attempt at blending, then I added layers to conceal the flaws of the result, and figured a gradient on top of that might look pretty :D I wasn't sure about the end effect, but your interpretation makes me happy, hahaha :D

Yessss, One icons!!! I'm not very good with text but I just had to add the cocoa thing here :D And I was so excited I pulled off colouring the TARDIS alone on the black and white setting, hahaha. My small victories ;)

Thank youuuu for all the squee, it makes me so happy and excited ;D

Is perfect! :D You can totally get away with saying you had deep thoughts behind it.

Ohhh, the TARDIS one is lovely! And that is a victory -- I have no idea how to do that!

:D *dances*

Haha, the cocoa thing is the best! It's like... the moment One fails to be the grumpy!grand dad he's pretending to be and is just plain Doctor. XD (New One icons and [livejournal.com profile] easytheretyger posted One fic... I feel like One's suddenly everywhere! It's a good week for One!)

Hehehe! :D I'm fine with happy!clueless, though ;)

It turned out not so hard at all, as long as I didn't make an ugly mess of selecting her with the mouse ;) Like the top of Clara's hair that got eaten just a wee bit. Ahem.

Yessssss!!! It's soooo fantastic. Yay for more One fic! All the love for One! (I might just get a bit of time for classic!Who tonight… Shhh… Shouldn't say that too loud, I always end up doing something else instead…)
