So I was asked the following icons to remake:
Old icons (2024)

New icons (remakes):

1. I decided to keep the same subject (Cheryl from Riverdale) and used a more red background (or pink in this case).
2. I think the subject is from Thor: Love and War so decided to keep Valkryie as the subject.
3 and 4. So decided to use Penelope from Bridgerton and kept the Green theme going for her :)
5. I wanted to make Groot be in a dark forest instead.
6. I wanted to use text to quote Elle's quote about orange being seriously distrubed LOL :)
7. I wanted to reverse the color scheme of Marie Antoinette (meaning yellow will be the background and blue will be the color of the dress). The background ended up working like this :)

So here, I am looking back on 2024 even though I am writing this in 2025. Some of my entries have been back-posted in a different date. Some months (like July and August) were back-dated and posted in December, but I labeled the icons that were created in the appropriate months.

Closing Thoughts: I feel like I've probably started out wanting to work on my goals that I usually have working on more complex compositions but due to time crunch I ended up doing my style (negative space I guess or even doing stock icons). So to work on my same goals - complex composition and text work especially when I have the time to do so. - note - same closing remarks as last year!
