Creative Paradox

In its early days, this World used to be all about smart discussions and posts and stuff like that. But since I hardly write articles now because of the lack of time, this World is now a place dedicated to showcasing whatever I do that doesn't relate to blogging about my life (which is already covered in this World). So, in a nutshell, this place is for graphics and resources.

Browse (most of) my stuff here by tags:

I take icon requests, so PM me or write me a comment :3 And feel free to use the stuff I make: you don't need to credit me if you use icons, but I'd appreciate some credit for the rest.

If you know of any other worlds with icons/graphics, drop me a line and I'll feature them~

Background pattern: made with Colour Lovers by me.

Icons: Miwa Shirow [one image, 8 variations]

About time I made something using Miwa Shirow's art! I couldn't get enough of cropping this image and focusing on different parts, so that's why there are so many variations (couldn't do more about the girl with the bird, though). High contrast, 'cause this image would honestly make a kickass tattoo.

In other news, I'm about 40% done with the Secret Santa icons, but haven't gotten to the eCard and wallpaper yet :-< The last week has been very busy for me, with around 5 projects to present and other homework to turn in. But yay for winter break rapidly approaching! And we've gotten snow too! Haven't broken any bones slipping on the ice yet, though~

Love for the dead: 8 Makai Ishi Mephisto icons

Yup, folks, this is what I do after chugging an energizer while sick and being reduced to breathing via mouth, then listening to a mixture of Prodigy, Jay-Z/Linkin Park mashups and Roxette all day. Most icons have no text because, as you can see from the few that do, my typo's kinda rusty. And I wanted to include "necrophile" in there somewhere, but it would've come out the wrong way (is there a right one?). Enjoy! c:

Also, I finished S4 of Fringe yesterday. My reaction (in a good way)?

Onwards to season 5!

Icons: Shaun of the Dead (2004)

If you haven't seen this yet, get a hold of it somehow and watch it. It's awesome. I had the pleasure of rewatching it recently and it more than holds up to multiple viewings.

Come and get it! It's a running buffet!

Icons: Kimi ga Koi ni Ochiru [smexy yaoi luv-luv]

External Image

Just posting to show I'm not dead! :D Couldn't resist making these when reading moar Hinako Takanaga to write synopses for MT. Next: Kimi ga Koi ni Oboreru! Enjoy~

P.S. I know I owe someone a tutorial about coloring manga scans and I promise I'm ~~slowly~~ working on it~ ^-^

P.P.S. FFS THEO Y U NO HAVE CUSTOMIZABLE WORLD THEMES. I CANNOT COLOR-COORDINATE. THE WALLS. IT DRIVES ME UP THEM. *cries and pokes everyone's eyes out with neon colors*

Icons: food

3 more variations on the first one here~

This is the batch of icons I made for the appropriately titled "sweet foods" first round of Cloud's iCON competition. Dammit, these are making me hungry again! *shakes fist* A huge thank you to everyone who praised them, if I didn't get to thank you then - but don't matter, thanking twice isn't a problem XD

Also, I added another review on MaRants :) I hope to watch tons of movies and read tons of manga this summer to make up for lost time, so hopefully I'll submit at least one review a week. But first I've gotta catch up with Game of Thrones *is 4 episodes behind T^T*
