perioddrama_ic : [41 icons]

My original somein30 challenge post: lullabycharmed.livejournal.com/46169.html

Let's compare them to this round:

I didn't do this round in order but I put my notes on top (lol)

1. Random character: post 137 icon 19, I don't know who this is, but I'm sure you do

(Katherine Pierce, so for the new icon, I took a different screencap of hers, and also did an unusual cropping).
2. Random retro_icontest challenge: 9 theiconquest - quest 12 "path" - https://theiconquest.livejournal.com/9087.html choose a class and use the inspirations shown on that first page ( I followed the hero path I believe to make it as bright as possible)
3. Random praise: I love the muted coloring, especially how you turned [character1]'s trademark bright colors into pastel. The way the text separates [character1] from [character2] as well as curls around [character1] is amazing. (I tried following the praise by using the muted coloring and text to curl around the characters).
4. Random screencap:

(this was so much fun!)
5. Random song: Nirvana - Come As You Are ( youtube | lyrics ) ( I used the lyrics as text work)
6. Random tutorial:

by neke (I followed using pastel-like coloring and text as well)
7. Random movie poster: http://www.impawards.com/2009/how_i_got_lost.html ( I used the composition of the poster to inspire me)
8. Random quote: “When we are most alone is when we embrace another's loneliness.” - Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper ( I added the quote in the icon)
9. Random textures: azuremonkey lookslikerain nighty-stock@dA ( like before, I decided to combine all the textures to create this icon)
10. Random font: https://www.dafont.com/de/alice-in-wonderland.font (had to use an alice in wonderland character and quote in this font)
11. Random trope: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LovecraftLite (I used the visible imager of a LovecraftLite trope as the background of the texture)
12. Random remake: post 94 (lol a progression post, only good icons <3) icon

(I used the dominant colors of this icon (green and white) to create another stock icon
13. Random song title: So Cold The Night (used the song title to inspire me and used as a text)
