Finished My 100 Fandoms Icon Table

[kingstoken]

I finished my 100fandomicons table! Which you can see here if you're interested. This challenge was a lot harder than I expected, when I signed up I thought it be easy and fun, but creating unique icons for 100 individual fandoms that fit the themes of each square was very challenging at times. There was a couple times I almost gave up on it, but I pushed through, and finished with just a few days to spare.

I think the hardest part was thinking of 100 fandoms in the first place, thank goodness for screencap communities that gave me inspiration and reminded me of films and TV shows I had forgotten about, and thank you to everyone who made suggestions when I asked for them, you're awesome. Also, some of the prompts were so hard to match icons to, but after I stopped taking some of them so literally, or thought about them in different ways I was able to create icons that fit, if not always in the expected ways.

Wow! I can well imagine that the hardest part was thining of 100 fandoms....

It really was, but thank goodness I remembered Disney films near the end, they really saved my bacon.

Holy crap, 100 fandoms is so many! I don't even know if I could come up with a 100 things to make icons for.

Do you have any favorites from the 100 icons? Were some of them especially difficult for some reason or other?

When I signed up for the challenge 100 didn't sound too bad, but it soon became pretty daunting.

I really like all of them, because I know how much work went into them, but a few of my faves are the Yuri On Ice icon, because of how well it turned out, the Witcher and The Old guard icons because I really like that see through text effect, and the Elsa icon because of how well the frosty effect came out. As for the hardest ones to make, the hardest one was the Lady Gaga icon, which looks so deceptively simple, but I remember I had so much trouble with it, and I couldn't get it to turn how I wanted, and I almost discarded it at one point. The Cinderella icon was a little finicky, because of all the images and little squares.

Very cool! Thanks for the commentary, I looked up the icons you mentioned and I gotta admit, I wouldn't have noticed how much editing/layering there was otherwise.
