hello, welcome to the dw edition of my icon comm??

01-05
06-10
11-15
for somein30

Is it one set? Is it 3 sets? Idk mods, you decide :D
So I couldn't pick which mode I wanted to do this round, SO I DID 3.

01-05: HARD MODE: Select an album and make only one icon for each song.
I picked Johannesburg EP by Mumford & Sons, which has exactly 5 songs so it was perfect for this. I didn't want to use lyrics so I just went with the ~vibe~ of each song.

01 - There Will Be Time
02 - Wona
03 - Fool You've Landed
04 - Ngamila
05 - Si Tu Veux

Icons aside, I REALLY recommend this EP.

06-10: EXTRA HARD MODE: Use randomized songs as your inspiration (one icon per song).
I'm mostly an album listener, and Spotify doesn't allow for easy randomizing of your collection, so I used one of my few playlists for this: a MASSIVE collection of anime openings/endings and insert songs. Which I thought would be an interesting challenge, since every song would have some visuals to go with it too... But just iconing the anime the song comes from would be to easy, so I randomized 5 more songs to pick what I would be iconing to mix it up. Pairs are:
06 - Darker Than Black ed + Natsume Yuujinchou
07 - Haikyuu ed 4 + Gurren-Lagann
08 - Sailor Moon Stars ed + Neon Genesis Evangelion
09 - Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru op 2 + Cardcaptor Sakura
10 - Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu op + Slayers

Got some real oldies here, but everything except the 4th one had good visuals so this was fun :D The 4th one was just... people running (makes sense for an anime about running I guess??) so I had a bit of a harder time but somehow that's my favorite outcome of them all? And the 5th... I have no recollection of ever watching this show, but the opening sure looks very unique lol

11-15: ULTRA HARD MODE: Choose just one song and use consecutive parts of the lyrics in all your icons.
Ahh man the hardest part was actually picking a song where I could (& wanted to) icon 5 consecutive lines lol. I was close to abandoning this till Shut Up And Dance by Walk the Moon came on the radio when I was at work and well. It worked! I made 2 artistic choices that maybe disqualify this set though: used speechbubbles instead of actually putting the words 'I said'/'she said' on the icon, and changed woman to man. Is that ok? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This challenge was funnn. I wish I could have done mode but my time was very limited lately sooo. Also, this post is not a rainbow and it makes me sad u__u
