tiny icon post
People with lots of icons (or any number, really): do you have any kind of philosophy on what icons to have in your collection, or which ones you like to use in what situations? I want to build up my collection but I'm getting choice paralysis :D
(I'm using my Tsuyu icon for this post, as my designated Thinking icon :D)
This question is prompted by me getting back into coloring manga panels for icons... it's really enjoyable! I'm catching up on the HxH manga (in some ways futilely, since it's looking like Togashi will never finish this arc, but it's still fun).
Here's a Kurapika from chapter 364. I find characters and creatures with big eyes and no mouths SO cute. I mean, look at him! As soon as I saw him I had to do something with this panel.
And here they are at icon size. I'm torn between my options! I guess it depends on the emotion I intend to convey with it. My range of emotions in my current icon set is kind of limited. Do I want innocent curiosity, or 'you've activated an interest of mine'?
Nobody look too closely at my shading. I don't know anything, I'm just here to have fun.
