The Fifth Element challenge at abc_icons

[colorfilter]

*gasp* Icon update! ^^; I've been wanting to give one of those abc challenges a try- and since I've always wanted to make icons for The Fifth Element, I signed up for it at abc_icons a few days ago to hit them two birds with one stone. ;p I absolutely love this movie- I thought everything about it was just really cool. :D As usual, I tried to play with the style to match the movie's feel/mood and I hope I've managed to achieve at least a little bit of that. Comments greatly loved, you know that. :3

Gorgeous icons, and you truly did capture the movie's style. I'm snagging a bunch and will credit, thanks! Now I have to watch the movie again -- no hardship. :)

[colorfilter]

Thank you! I'm really happy you think I managed to capture the movie's style as that was my primary goal. ^^ And enjoy watching the movie again- I think I may be doing the same. ;D

Oh wow, I love these. Love the colours/style, they do match the movie (which is amazing omg)! And dude, I can't believe it only took you three days. o.O I would've needed like a month, haha. Well done!

[colorfilter]

It was the weekend, which means I didn't have to work- which means I literally almost never left my computer. So all in all, I get them done in 3 days because I have no life and not because I have super iconing speed powers. ^^;;

But ahh, I'm so glad to hear that you think they match the movie! Thank you! :)

LOL...I really wanted to use that fire scene too actually- except I wasn't sure which letter to put it for so I left it alone. ^^;

SQUEEEEEEEE!!!! AWESOME!!!! I took MULTIPASS! (you need: Chicken... good)

Awhahaha. I love the colors in your icons. I recently watched that movie on the Sci-Fi channel with my sister and her manfriend, and it was really funny. Granted we all kind of wanted to move on to watch decorating shows, but we stuck it out (Art, manfriend, had the remote) and grew interest in it. I think I watched it in sixth grade, a long time ago, but it was vaguely familiar at the time.

Enough to the rambling! I do that too often. I really like the colors. Zorg, obviously, just shows how futuristic/spacey the movie's theme plays to. (Working backwards here.) And "Uhh..." really does suit Bruce Wilis. At everything. >>;

I like the barcode brushes that you used, which kind of does play to The Fifth Element because everyone is systematically checked by their given barcode. :P

IWY. "I wuv you." Okay. Lame. I get it. But I nabbed those. HAHAAH. :)

[colorfilter]

LOL...well, I'm glad you guys stuck it out rather than switch to decorating shows- otherwise you'd miss out on one great movie, and I'd miss out on one great comment from you about these icons. ;D

And ah...I'm giddy that you thought the barcodes (font, actually) were fitting. I've been wanting to use them for the longest time and finally thought that it goes hand in hand with The Fifth Element. Great to know someone noticed the connection. ^^

Thank you for the awesome comments you left me! :)

[culturedgeek.livejournal.com]

Taking M, Q, and X. Wow these are good. I loved this movie.

[strangelittlex.livejournal.com]

Love love love these! Fifth Element is such a great movie. I'm going to snag some and will definitely credit when used.

[grrliz.livejournal.com]

THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! There are not nearly enough Fifth Element icons in the world. I'll probably end up taking G. :D

[colorfilter]

Ahh, you're so right! I don't understand though- it's such an awesome movie. :3 And btw...I love that icon you're posting with! Gary Oldman is <3 and Fifth Element is <3...you can't go wrong. :D

[tashiee.livejournal.com]

These are cool :)
Saved a few, will credit. Thanx

[ceresse.livejournal.com]

I lovelovelove this movie. Have to watch it whenever it's on. Very good job, they really reflect the movie. Snagged badaboom, will credit. ^_^
