Icon meme, and Lucky Star art
Jun. 13th, 2010 09:43 pmI keep forgetting to post both of these! I drew Konata a couple of weeks ago and used
astillac's watercolor pencils to color her. I liked them so much I bought a set of my own :3

And I got this meme from
daegaer equally long ago! Yay for icons :D
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!
daegaer picked...

Snufkin :D He's a traveler, and he leaves Moominvalley in the fall every year to go journeying in the south. This icon is by
maddeinin. It's very autumny to me, and the coloring is just gorgeous. I also love the little reflections under his feet, like he's walking on a wet road. It's a little bit of a bleak icon, but Snufkin is so all about living at your own pace that anything where he figures in makes me happy.

I made this one :3 Van Helsing wants you to use your brain! This is the scene from Dracula where he's talking to his students about syphilis. Van Helsing is an incredibly cool character, and I adore Sir Anthony Hopkins's portrayal of him - it fits the movie, half serious and half ridiculous. He's such a fabulous actor, never needing to steal the spotlight but owning every scene he's in. Besides, Van Helsing looks great in that color yellow XD

By
merlin_emrys! Utena collides with Wicked in the most awesome way. This is an image from the last episode's ending credits *armwaving* and the lyric from "Defying Gravity" is so full of freedom and breaking away and together they're magic.

This icon was made by
semyaza :) It looks almost like embroidery to me, and I love the symmetricity of the wings and the gold-on-black. It's one of the few icons that I have just because it's beautiful, not because it's from anything.

Hoooolmes XD
icons_liek_woah makes the most fantastic icons, doesn't she? I love this one, because Brett and Burke look so incredibly Paget-like here. (Witness: From the same story, no less!) And it's obvious that Holmes took Watson's arm, which is charming and squeeful and bweeeee XD

And Anthony Hopkins was the only thing I liked about Coppola's Dracula. He seems to be the only actor to date who realised that Van Helsing was...well, a little bit insane XD
I would join in, but I only recently did an icon squee post and I fear being annoyingly repetitive.

Date: 2010-06-14 11:27 pm (UTC)You're SO right! Van Helsing is so complicated, and definitely a little off the deep end, and actors usually go all "I'm omniscient!" and forget the crazy part.
I'm going to give you some icons just because I like your icons XD In case you feel like doing the meme again!

Date: 2010-06-14 11:43 pm (UTC)I LOVE the Francis Ford Coppola Dracula XD It's really horrendously silly at times, but it's the only movie (or play) I've seen to get the Quincy/Jack/Arthur trio even close to right.
