Icons: Wrestling 20in20 Round13: Shawn Michaels

This is the first time I've been brave (or stupid!!) enough to enter an icontest of any sort. The ones over at [livejournal.com profile] wrestling20in20 are awesome and what inspired me to take the plunge, join up and have a go. I'm not a fantastic graphic artist but I need a load of new ones so why not make myself do them now and themed on someone I never tire of looking at!!?

Anyway, hit the link and they're there. Honest but not harsh comments welcome - me and Gimp are slowly learning to love each other and I'm a relative noob who's thinking of sticking to writing :)



THEMES
reading
dark
tiny text
ring attire
white
one word
photoshoot
union
devious

I adore the "posterboy" one - so funny and so Shawn.

I'm stealing them all. *snatches*

Don't judge me. You know how I feel about him. T_T

By the way, he says hi.

If this are your first icons I have to say their AMAZING, MY first icons weren't as good as this and that's the truth.

Lovely, Wonderful job.

Shawn and the reading one :)

dark is really good.

White, I love the playboy images he did.

photoshoot I like alot.

Ac2, AC3, AC4 AND AC5 are also some of my favs.

category ones are also really nice :)
Shawn was so young in that photo.

Nice work on these. I think you did a really great job. I really like 'tiny text' & 'white' as well as the category set. :)

Congrats on completing & well done!

p.s I know what you mean about Shawn, I miss him terribly too. lol Look forward to seeing more of your work in future rounds. :D

These are amazing, you'd never guess you were new. I love Reading, Photoshoot, Devious, Defeat and AC 1 and 5. They're so awesome though and I love your use of text, it's hilarious (in a good way).

These are so good! My favourites are dark, ring attire, defeat (perfect, really really perfect), cat3 and AC2&3, but they're all great! I would never have guessed you were new at this. :)

These are great! I especially like devious..and the category set is really nice. And dark is epic!

[identity profile] flowerbombed.livejournal.com 2010-07-18 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
For your first icontest, these are great! 'Defeat' is particularly well done. Really nice set overall.

Good luck in the contest!

OMG! Awwww, HBK! My sexy boy! I LOVE these icons! And don't dog yourself on icon-making. I mean, I took SO many! I took reading, tiny text, white, photoshoot, devious (I remember that! I saw that show!), category 2, category 3, artist's choice 2-5, and ALL WILL BE CREDITTED.

I agree w/ [livejournal.com profile] shigure_doggy19 and I hope you DO make more in the future, because I think he's getting forgotten too quickly. Two Christmases ago, I got my boyfriend a glow-in-the-dark DX t-shirt and let's just say, it's supported every fight on Monday night's RAW, and Wrestlemania. And NOW, it supports Hunter as he's going through neck surgery recovery, because of the sledgehammer or steel pipe that Sheamus used on him. I can't believe Sheamus is acting all proud about it; it sickens me.

Good luck in the conteszt, hun! I miss Shawn, & THIS entry totally made my day! Thank you so fucking much!

Ooooh, Shawny~ I already forgot how much I actually liked him back in the good old days. D":

Your first time making icons? ..Doesn't really look like it, these are all.. So.. Gorgeous! I couldn't help myself noticing though that you seem to like adding text everywhere? :"D I think there was only one without text.. But anyway, let's not give too much into that madness.

The Dark, Photoshoot and Devious ones are just simply awesome. That's pretty much all I can say. And the coloring in these.. Aaw.

They are all really good, the cropping and coloring especially. Good work.. And that's all I can say. These are so good they actually make me speechless. XD
