bluejeans07I totally salute the genius who came up with 100 icons. Really, such a thing of brilliance. XD And I totally salute the lovely ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chobit001 for giving me said 100 icon space because I'm going nuts over them! Making icons is so relaxing, it feels like I've accomplished something when I've really done nothing at all! Oh look, I can artistically fill up 100 pixes by 100 pixels of space in a really short span of time! Wheee! I've also gone through different phases when I make icons in a set: first, there was the Ghibli set, and then there was the Endless set (which isn't done because I can't find good pics of Destruction or Desire), and now it's the Random Pretty Images set. Well, maybe there isn't a set with these icons, I just like finding pretty pictures.
And I made a Queen Lucy icon to match Freya's Queen Susan icon! ;D
All of my icons are totally gack-able, just be sure to credit me and let me know you took a few. XD Some of the icons I have here are icons I've made for other people, like the Meg icon or the Alice icon but I liked them so much that I use them too. Oh my goodness, when am I EVER going to use all 100 icons? I have a little over fifty uploaded and I haven't used all of them yet!
I should really make an icon for whenever I'm posting anything Rhapsody related. Speaking of Rhapsody, I'm writing these to put together a small writing portfolio to show that aside from being an illustrator, I *CAN* write. I'm not necessarily a great writer but I like to think I'm a pretty decent one. I know what I'm strong in is characterization and flow, but grammar is a bit of a problem at time and Mandy tells me (and I agree) that I tend to do plenty of tense shifts. So if you have a little time, take a look at the Rhapsody writings and give me constructive criticisms so I can improve! I'm not looking to get Rhapsody published at all, I just want it there so that I have something I've written. It's a lot of fun to write, I particularly love writing Jesse's personality. There's a lot of what I remember about high school art programs in him, the theatre group in particular in the way he words things and has no problems adding a cuss word or two in his sentances. But there's a specail twist to him, that he has a genuinely good and open heart that people seem to find shelter in, no matter how wounded.
Ryuu is a bit more difficult, which is interesting because he's completely my creation (Jesse is based off another Jesse created by the lovely Alix who I realized is me but not XD). A lot of what goes into Ryuu is my dad's personality, which is strange because I happen to think of Daddy as being a bit of a dull person and I don't think Ryuu's boring at all. Maybe it's the struggles they've gone through, or the way they're not interested in being in the spotlight and enjoy having a life that's simple, especially since Ryuu's life hasn't been normal. And I have to admit this, a bit of Yas is thrown into Ryuu for kicks. XD Sorry Lyn! I didn't plan it, it just happened!!
I may introduce more characters into Rhapsody as brief side characters. There are a few girls I plan to be there named Camilla, Lily, Lilli, and Rose (based on my favorite Sargeant painting xD) that are friends of Jesse and learn to accept a new type of person into their tightly knit group, maybe a section on how one of the teachers are watching out for her students, etc. I have no idea how long Rhapsody will go on, it's a lot of fun and I can say it's some of the best things I've written so far. Wheeeeee!
