Over The Edge

Hi!!!!
I know, I've been away for a long time, but it's always nice to return to this journal and to the icon community! This is like a safe space for me, a place where I can return whenever I want without feeling the pressure of doing something wrong. ♥
I'm so happy there are still some nice communities over at dreamwidth and I felt very inspired by the new round at monthlyinspo! This time the task was about working on the same screencap and make it work for at least two icons: since I love a good challenge, I decided to use the same source for five icons and this is the result! Hope you like this new batch of icons!

Hello, my friends! This is my last post of ther year, so I'm going to put here all the icons that I haven't yet published on this blog. The first batch is for the new round at monthlyinspo, in which we had to make icons based on a chosen surprise bag: they aren't my best work (I'm not gonna lie, I have some problems with photoshop lately and I really don't know why it doesn't do his job anymore) but I just did what I could possibly do. The rest of them are icons I made for various challenges like movieslims and tvshowsic. By the way I've joined dreamwidth just for following some icontests, since livejournal seems a bit dead; you can find me HERE with a mirror blog!
Since this is my last time posting in 2022, I'd like to wish you all the best for 2023: HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This post is about a small set of icons I made for monthlyinspo. I know, they aren't very good but I post them anyway. The theme was monochrome and even if this technique is not one of my favourites, I just tried: I have to get back in shape again, so this was a very useful exercise!
Enjoy them!

...Hello!
It has been nearly two years from the last time I posted in this journal, but I'm still alive and around! I've missed very much this community and the iconning part, so I've decided to come back to this creative life: I hope it'll last, haha! I'll write soon a personal entry, because this one is dedicated to icons!
Yes, you read it well: NEW ICONS! I haven't made a single icon in two years as well, I've done only few tumblr graphics but that's not the same! I missed so much these tiny pixels and the current challenge at monthlyinspo totally inspired me, so I've decided to participate! I've always loved space themed things (plus, I'm in avery sci-fi mood lately, thanks to Foundation tv series and books) and the gorgeous inspiration post was really motivating!
Some of them are a bit rusty of course, but I'm very satisfied of the final result of the entire set. All the icons are directly inspired by the theme in different ways, but I tried to give a space vibe to all of them!
Now to the icons, hope you like them!

Welcome July!
We have survived the first half of this horrible year and I really really hope the other half will be much better for everyone!
The only positive note is that with all the lockdowns around the world we had more time to dedicate to our hobbies, and this includes making more icons! I'm really happy that the community is alive again! It's a pity that I'm back to full work and that I can't enjoy it very well and I wish I could do more!
In this post I'm collecting all the icons that I made in this mid-year, from January to June; I've posted most of them in various communities as the7days, capicontest, capchallenge, celeb_it and movieslims, but there are a few alternates and rejected ones that are new to everyone! Hope you enjoy them!

Hello, my friends, how is it going? Are you still in lockdown? Here in Italy they've opened again almost everything, I even went back to work, but I'm still very afraid, because people aren't really being all that good in following the security measures. I really hope we won't go back again to a full lockdown, I'm keeping my finger crossed that everything we'll be okay!
Anyway, in the past days I've worked to some icons for another battle! This one was hosted by novindalf at icontalking and it was about fantasy fandoms! The result is super gorgeous and pretty magical, you can see all the fantastic icons right HERE! These are my creations, hope you enjoy them!

Hello!
How are you dealing with this terrible virus that's plaguing the world? I hope you are all staying safe and healthy. Are you currently in quarantine? I live in Italy so the answer is (of course) yes for me, but I'm worried that I have to go back to work soon and I don't know if I'm ready. But, hey, let's live day per day and don't add other worries to the big ones.
Anyway, on a positive note, I'm finding more time for icons (and books too!) and I've recently made these ones for an amazing period drama battle hosted by sietepecados at sininferno! You all know my deep love for period pieces, so I just HAD to participate. If you wanna take a closer look to all icons, you can find them HERE: they're all super pretty! ♥ This is my entry, I hope you like them!

Hello! This is my first entry of the year!
First of all I have to say that I finally have a job! I've started it last week and it will last for a year! And the good news is that I'm working as a librarian in a public library and it's all I could ask for! I work all the day with books and this is awesome; even if the place and my chiefs aren't very nice, I'm sure this new experience will be good for me and for future jobs!
Anyway, these icons are for the new round at monthlyinspo! The inspiration post was just gorgeous and I HAD to participate! I know, they aren't very good and I still feel a bit rusty, but I have to practice to fully come back in shape! ;) Hope you like them!

Hello, fellows! Hope you had a lovely Christmas!
I know, my last activity here and in the icon communities was maybe in May or June, but I'm still here! I had several problems that took me apart from making icons: a very very hot summer followed by the inevitable collapsing of my computer, health issues in my family, new hobbies and commitments and so on. Now I finally have a new computer, new photoshop, new everything, and even if I still have to get used to all this stuff, I'm sure I'll return creating new graphics soon! In the meantime I'm gonna post here all the icons I haven't published in this blog: I've made them mostly for communities like movieslims, celeb_it, actress_ic, itsabattlefield and tv_movie_icons, so maybe you've seen some of them around. Hope you like them!
I'm also sorry I've disappeared from your comments, but I promise I'll begin to be around again with the new year!
This will be my last post of this decade and so I'd like to wish you all the best for the new year that is coming: may it bring all that you desire and need! Happy 2020!
