Oh wow your colorings and compositions are on point as always! These are really awesome and holy shit, extra hard mode! I love that some are doing that, since I'm very much fascinated by the progress that everyone has made, and yours is super inspiring too. It's fascinating to see how the same elements have been there from the beginning, such as levels/blocking. (Although I gotta say your first icons aren't half bad compared to most other makers starting icons, including mine. Still, the progress is impressive!)

Where to begin with the favorites?! There's something really great about each of these, but the very last icon is absolutely stunning, the coloring and typography give it a wonderfully magical vibe. I think it's my top favorite!

The first two icons both have great use of background text, I love huge impact-making text work like that. Love the blocking in the 5th icon especially, the text that ties the blocks together is a great composition element and I really dig the combination of distinctly differently colored blocks.

The Belle icon for 2014 is GORGEOUS, the lighting/coloring/texture use makes it so elegant and shiny and bright! <3
The Free! icon is extra cuteness, I don't see a lot of Reigisa icons so I appreciate you making one, this one is so adorbs. Love the subtly shiny lighting and the bright colors. It must be so relaxing being a fan of this ship that has no fandom drama, with all the World War Free! going on a few years back, this was pretty much the one ship that nobody had a problem with :D

The coloring and blocking in 14 look great too and I love the shiny vibrancy in 13 :)

Thanks so much for entering and sharing your history!
