Activity #85 - Text Me!

[tinny]

During our Ask The Maker activity, wickedgame wrote a text guide, and my fingers are itching to try it. So our new activity focuses on text.

The only requirement is to use text on your icon. It should be text, not a premade text texture, but otherwise every kind of text is allowed: large, tiny, walls of text, single letters, in any language, readable or not.

You've nailed it ! Beautiful text work and overall coloring and composition ! MY favorite is of course the Penelope one , this gorgeous girl is looking even more gorgeous and the text coupled with the flower accent ! Uff ! Beautiful. Also , the lighting of 2 is so pretty , that frosty blue looks real good.

Oh wow these are all brilliant! I love the different colors in the Alice one, and the different font sizes in the second icon, and the different fonts (and stock texture) in the last two. So many different text techniques! \o/ I really love the results of this challenge.

So sweet of you!I really tried all sorts of ideas for text in this challenge!:D Reminded me of the somein30 iconing days!

Love all of these! I think my favorite thing about them is the composition and font choices. Each icon has a bery unique feel and harmonious look.
