Activity #02 - Icon Rainbow!

Rules:

* Make a rainbow! It works like this:

* Choose five consecutive colors from the color bands in the inspiration section above and make five icons in these five colors

* Each icon has to be primarily in that one color, but not strictly monochrome, as you can tell from the inspiration examples.
* You may (but don't have to) use the textures provided in the middle part of the inspiration section.
* If you can't finish your set, it is okay to enter fewer than five icons, but the colors of the icons you enter still need to be consecutive.
* Please submit your icons (icons and URLs) to this post, all in one comment (if possible).
* Everyone can participate, you don't have to be a member of this community.

* I collect all the icons from the comments and make a result post
* Everyone can leave comments on the inspiration and activity result posts
* There is no voting

Deadline: Saturday, June 17 2017, your end-of-day

Re: Questions?

[fueschgast]

Instead of the alt text, could you link to the texture makers' journals, please?

I'm a bit of a completist, would it be okay if I posted 6 icons, so I don't have to leave out any color?

[alwaysbeenasmiler]

Just a question--

I made a bright pink one-- where does that fall on the colour wheel?

I am is it between red and blue? I mean where would I go about placing it if I did a five colour red to purple deal

[tinny]

Hmmm... I'd say pink is closest to purple? But you could count it as red, as well, if that fits your set better.

Rainbows are harder than I thought. :D

p.s.: I'm happy to hear you've already started on your set!

[lavenderspark]

Ooo! Pretty!

And I already have two icons that would work (with some tweaks)! I might be able to scrape together enough time to do this!

These are gorgeous - I love the Harlots one, and the one from Drag Race is so pretty and dreamlike.

Oh, these work together really well as a set - the 2nd one is fantastic with all the concentric circles.

Re: sorry I misread...

[tinny]

No worries, fueschgast also asked to be allowed to make six. If they manage to enter their set in time, you won't be the only one. *g*

(ha, no the challenge doesnt end today, but next saturday :D)

Aaaah! So many heroines, I love it. And you've blended colours really well - they go together as a set perfectly.

Awww, I'm so sorry!

Our next activity will be Ask the Maker, so there won't be an icon challenge this month. But I hope you'll have fun nonetheless!
