 1 -15 - Teen Wolf for somein30
16 - 20 - Teen Wolf (alts), Jisoo (Blackpink)
21 - 25 - IU, Taeyong (NCT), Irene (Red Velvet) x 2, Hyolyn
26 - 30 - ZELO, Seulgi (Red Velvet), Hyuna, Joy (Red Velvet), Bang Yongguk



Notes:

1. I wanted to participate in this month's somein30 round and the idea was to make a 50-50 mix of simple and complex but I found myself making simple icons cause I was enjoying the process more. Also, I chose Normal Mode.

2. Some nostalgia is happening, which is why I iconned the early seasons of Teen Wolf.

3. For some reason, I wanted to slap grunge textures on everything, so I did. Some colouring experiments were also attempted. Fun was had!

4. The kpop icons were made for a battle that was supposed to be posted a year and half ago. But it never materialized, so I'm just posting my completed set.

I love the grunge textures! 1 and 15 look particularly good. I also really like the coloring and lighting of 13. The vibrant colors of the kpop icons are also very nice :)

Love this set. It's so colorful and grungy. I love the contrast on these also, my faves are 2, 11 (amazing 3D effect) and 13 (the light is just superb). Also 21, 25 and 27 are great :)

[applepips]

Ahhh thank you so much! So glad you like them! <3

OOooh, I love the grungy look on these! (4, 5, 15). It's not a look I associate with your style. Yay for mixing it up! \o/ I really like the last ten, too. The glowy lighting and the relatively monochrome coloring are so beautiful!

Turns out once you start using grunge, it can be a little addictive! I am glad you liked the icons despite the differing styles! <3

Oh wow, these are stunning! I LOVE the texture work in the somein30 set, I'm a huge fan of colorful grunge and these are fantastic.

11 is the first one that caught my eye, the coloring + dark negative space + trippy 3d effect + text + texture use = awesome overall look, super eye-catching. All the parts fit so nicely together creating a really unique, interesting icon.
1 is great cause it's so shiny and neon that you wouldn't expect grittiness, but it's there and it WORKS! Same thing with 3.
The coloring in 4 is incredible, the colors are so vibrant and clean and well contrasted. Love the coloring and lighting and animated text in 6, the pop of contrasting cyan looks great against the already awesome coloring. 7 has super pretty colors + the texture use adds an interesting ingredient to the otherwise soft look.
13 is another stellar icon, kind of like with colorful grunge, I also love dark vibrancy, cause the combination is unexpected. I looove the hint of shiny lighting, and how it's subtle but adds so much color, and how the shadows aren't quite black but deep purple. And finally, the text and texture use + color combination in 15 are spectacular. Thanks so much for entering this awesome set! <3

The battle icons are amazing as well, I especially love the coloring and lighting on 26, the intricate background on 28 and the vibrancy and text use on 30. Fantastic work all around!
