A few notes :

• This is a whopping big post. It's because I was determined to have at least one whoppingly big post this year since I havent posted as much as I would like too.
• TEXT. I experimented with it this time and would actually like to think I succeded because I quite like what I managed.
• I also wanted to experiment with cropping but I'm thinking that will take a little more time? CENTRE CROPS, I LOVE YOU.
• Caps for Sherlock and HP courtesy of the VERY AWESOME thepicturepool . Without their caply consideration, there would have been more tears on the part of this lazy person.
• CONCRIT IS ALWAYS WELCOME. AND APPRECIATED.
• That's all folks. Ta. :) 

MY GOD THIS big20in20 SET. ;_; The tears I cried over it were many. Like honestly, when I picked it, I wasn't thinking too much. The themes went up and I was gutted. Not that the themes weren't nice but with the texture set I picked, I could only see myself making the fugliest of icons. So yeah, this was REALLY hard for me. But that being said, I actually like most of what I have hear. Because in the end I threw caution to the wind and did whatever I felt like. In the end not thinking too hard of the end result helped enjoy what I was making.

1-5 ( Five Technical Themes)
6-10 ( Five Inspirational Themes)
11-15 (Five Category Icons)
16-20 (Five Artist Choice Icons)

I enjoyed making this set. It was a lot of fun. :D
Notes :

• 26 - Amortentia - My favourite thing about HP (OTHER THAN THEIR GLORIOUS FRIENDSHIPS) is the whole feeling of wonder and magic. The first time I ever the books, I too was eleven and I was simply swept by the story and magic and belief in it. I chose that cap of Harry because he looks so awed at the Wizarding World. Kinda of like how I feel. And will always feel, EVEN WHEN I'M OLD AND EIGHTY.
•  For the House Pride thing, I chose to interpret the basic qualities of the Houses through the Keep Calm Carry On thing because a) I didnt want to use the house symbols and I didnt feel like using caps of people. I wanted to do something a little different. b) The meme is so inherently British so it felt really appropirate you know, using it to showcase the houses?
• For AC, I chose to icon the 3rd movie because it is my favouritest book & movie of the series.

These are so beautiful! Your big20 set is just flawfree. IN LOVE with the coloring on the artist choice group in the hpelite claim. All the black and white icons are executed to perfection, too. LOVELY STUFF!
