I didn't have much inspiration for these but I wanted to try some effects and I think some of them worked pretty well. For my next post I'll be attempting to better my negative space icons. Anyway do post your opinions! All icons feature Torchwood.

I think these are huge improvements over any of my other icons. I scrapped text and went for textures, colourings and crops, and I tried to make sure I was happy with every icon. They're just of some of my favourite characters (excluding Donna, The Master, Jack and Jackie) and not from any particular Doctor Who episodes.

I'm actually posting some

Moffat

era icons! I've sort of cheated though because I used an episode by Tom Macrae, The Girl Who Waited (my favourite episode from series 5-7), because I like the red colouring and the white background of the whole episode. The set is brilliant! I also made a few Rose icons and 1 Ninth Doctor icon from the episode Father's Day. Some colourings aren't great but the screencaps for Father's Day weren't great, and the episode colouring is absolutely horrendous. I got some good crops from both episodes though!

I didn't plan on making these, but as I was making edits for roseinperil I found that I quite liked the subtle colourings so I thought I'd make some basic icons. I tried to do some better cropping on these, so do tell me what you think. These are nowhere near my best but I was just playing around in Photoshop. Constructive criticism is most certainly welcome!

I've been watching some Doctor Who from where I was up to, so I got to Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead, and I really enjoyed them. Despite my dislike for Steven Moffat I do like these episodes (they do have their flaws), and the colouring is perfect, which makes it very icon-able. I concentrated hugely on colouring and aesthetics - fuck crops, I wanted faces, expressions and colours, and I actually did a little work on text - I don't use a lot of text but I tried on one or two of these. I'm really pleased with these so enjoy. I would have done more Donna but she's not looking especially great in these eps so yeah. I'll do some Amy/11 soon. If these look plain, look at some screencaps and see the colour improvements I've made!

I stuck to the same style as before but these icons are more about my cropping and screencap choosing rather than colouring/use of textures/styles etc. Episodes include The Doctor Dances, World War Three, Rose and Bad Wolf.

Rose Tyler: 13
9th Doctor: 1

( rose, you are the weakest linkCollapse )

I decided to stay simple with this batch. They all have a few adjustment layers and maybe one or two colour blobs and the occasional texture, and there's one or two 3D effects in there, but everything is pretty simple, which I like. I especially like the ones that I emphasized facial features on, and I tried some glows too. Also check out the Dalek vision. I've never done 9 and I love series 1 so the eps are Bad Wolf, Dalek, Aliens of London and The Empty Child. Thoughts?
