I started iconing again since I got into Bangtan sometime in spring, but haven't been seriously making any until I got back here in summer. Now that I've settled back to the room I rent near the office during weekdays, I have more free time. I started looking for challenges and inspiration to get my creative juices flowing. It's easier to get inspired and motivated when you're given a specific task and timeline. I was doing simple challenges using styles and techniques I'm already used to.

These two for iconthat:

Personally I really love these two because they turned out to be super cute :3 Circle on both icons were a coincidence, I was testing out textures and they just looked perfect with them. These took me a long time and was kind of stressing me out because I couldn't get them right, but in the end I'm proud of the result.

Some of the icons I made for dailyicons:

I like the daily thing because I get a new prompt every day, and being a perfectionist I will try to find the perfect way to fill it. The downside is, since it is daily and we only get 48 hours to fill a prompt, more often than not I chose to be satisfied with whatever I could come up with in 2-3 hours. I certainly can do more to them, but it'll be too time consuming. I love how well the 'triangle' prompt turned out for the Luhan icon.

Oh and I decided to continue my Luhan claim for daily icons, I stopped at 84 ... two years ago. I'm not as invested in him as I was before, but he's pretty and super popular, there are new pics of him every day. I suppose I still can use him as my muse, and it has been working well. I'm finishing my 100 icons claim, finally!
