thisbluespiritA few icons I made a while back for ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
iconthat, mainly some old actor stock images and Star Wars (Prequel Trilogy):
Teaser:
The two actual sets for the comm:
Extras/Alternates
The first set featured Suzanne Neve, Anna Carteret and Nicola Walker (aka actors I like over several decades, although I wound up with a nice 1960s pic of Anna instead of a 1980s one). Star Wars icons from Revenge of the Sith + 1 Rogue One in the extras.
(I actually placed with both middle ones. I'm amused about the Star Wars ones because I worked really hard on all the other icons, submitted and unsubmitted, and that one literally took about five minutes and got more votes than anything else I've done in ages. :loL:)
Credits - screencaps my own, stock images stolen from various places and textures tigertyger again (I think). The usual rules apply - want, take, have, credit. No hotlinking.

I'd do something complicated and try really hard to make it pretty, etc, etc. And then the one I'd just cropped randomly, slapped a few layers/textures on and added random lyrics to would be the one people voted for.
(tbh, at least one of the "I made this randomly in two minutes" icons I'm actually somewhat proud of)
Augh. I got caught up in rambling then picking an icon and didn't add that I really like the first three--the Nicola Walker one just pops with beautiful color. And the framing of the middle one (Anna Carteret?) is perfect for what's in the background.
And Mr. Eye-roll. (I don't know Star Wars as well as I once did)

Thank you! And it's Suzanne Neve (Anna Carteret is on the end), but I see I unhelpfully listed them in any old order, heh.
ETA: Mr Eye-roll is Bail Organa. :-D But we can just call him that now.
