Creative Paradox

Welcome to Creative Paradox! What is it? It is simply a place where I can rant out (ahem, criticize) anything I find worthy of mention and that others can relate to as well. From anime to cliques, everything will be dissected and discussed ^_^ Posts might also include resources, like icon bases and PNGs, from time to time.

And I also took the time to browse through the news archives and selected the most important ones, from the point of view of a newbie to this site ^_^ If you have questions, hope some are answered here; if not, you can ask me directly

Icon bases: rare SM bases pack #3

(Rei, Usagi, Ami, Michiru, Hotaru)

Lol, I know, I promised I'd stop posting SM bases, but yesterday I changed my computer and had to move the files to memory sticks. I discovered some long-lost downloaded artbooks and there was a SM one among them too. Since the images were really pretty and HQ, I decided to make bases out of them That being said, I don't know if I'll be able to stop posting SM bases here, but if you want to see the rest you can go here (there are 250+ images!).
Oh, and I also updated Saku's world with some Oofuri icon bases, so check those out too if you're interested

Icon bases: rare SM bases pack #2

I think this is the last installment in the Sailor Moon rare bases pack; there are more bases, but they're not good enough to have their own post - they're not amazing or anything, just...ordinary images >_> You can find them here, if you want them.
Also, I'll gladly take requests for bases Been a little bored lately and don't have any inspiration.
